Benitez agrees terms for Luis Figo
Interesting.
Yesterday I heard from a reliable source that Shaun Wright Philips was in talks with Liverpool, but once the Gerrard money was not going to be available, it looks like Chelsea are going to sign him.
So we save £14 million on proven talent, a former World Player of the Year. Hardly a big dent in the budget is it? £2 million will do for me if Figo signs for us. With Benitez being the man manager he is, I wouldn't expect Figo to be calling the shots like the way he did at Real Madrid. He will have no chance. Benitez will spell this out to him.
If he signs, he will be in our world. One last push for Figo. Echoes of Gary McAllister.
If he signs, lets hope he's as sucessful.
