Mauro Boselli, search Birmingham

Argentine striker Mauro Boselli this close to becoming a new player of Birmingham, which offered 11 million dollars to buy the man who is playing in Students.

The Birmingham is one of the "new rich" of world football. Just like Manchester City or Chelsea at the time, the Blues were acquired by Hong Kong tycoon Carson Yeung, in exchange for a sum of money stratosphere (and of dubious origin).

Dealing on Boselli has some peculiarities. First, the player is owned in equal parts of Click and Boca Juniors. The latter sold half the team go to La Plata in exchange for U.S. $ S2.500.000, and signed an agreement which entails, inter alia, that before an offer of over 8 million dollars, the player must do it or be sold.

The only hindrance to the operation appears to be Alejandro Sabella, who for the world hope to keep his best man. But if the negotiation succeeds, the leading scorer in the Libertadores last moving its goals in the Premiership.
