Koeman Ready To Ship Miguel To England

[MUFC]

Valencia are set to meet with Portuguese international Miguel’s agent Paulo Barbosa today to seal the former Benfica star’s signature.
After the deals for Kromkamp and Sagnol feel through, los Ches jumped on their seats when they heard that Miguel was free after he annulled his contract with the Portughuese champs yesterday.

The right wing, who is also being tracked by Fiorentina and Juventus, will probably join Valencia by the end of the week.

There is only one slight worry for the Spanish outfit, and that is the legal problems they might incur in by signing him, as Benfica want to bring the player to court.

Good player and will be a good signing for Valencia

Miguel his still under a three year contract, the club the sign's him my have to pay Benfica 12 million euros, Portuguese federation and Liga had the papers signed long time ago,

PAULO BARBOSA ESTEVE EM VALÊNCIA
Valencia ainda é hipótese para Miguel

O Valencia ainda é hipótese para Miguel, segundo a imprensa espanhola. O empresário Paulo Barbosa deslocou-se hoje à cidade espanhola para ultimar pormenores da renovação por seis anos do central Marco Caneira, atleta que também representa, e o assunto do lateral direito também terá sido abordado na reunião com o director desportivo Xavier Subirats. No entanto, e segundo a Rádio "Nou" de Valência, os dirigentes do emblema valenciano estão expectantes quanto à actual situação do internacional português, num caso que vai para a justiça desportiva.

Recorde-se que Miguel rescindiu unilateralmente o contrato com os encarnados, alegando que no decorrer do processo de renovação firmou um novo vínculo até 2008, facto que permite, em seu entender, usufruir de um "período experimental de 30 dias, que começava a partir do dia 1 de Julho de 2005". Por esse motivo, alegou justa causa no rompimento do contrato.

O Valencia está no mercado à procura de um lateral direito, tendo em carteira outras opções, nomeadamente Kormkamp, defesa pretendido igualmente pelos dragões.

Apparently Miguel have had his contract annulled with Benfica due to Benfica breaking a (or several) clause(s) in the contract and is therefor free to sign with whoever he likes. But Benfica ofcourse is not giving up that easy and for all we know Miguel could have broken some clauses in the contract too. It's a real mess though and as a Valencia fan I hope this solves quickly so we can sign him cuz Curro Torres is out 7 months. Maybe Valencia could offer a 'gift' to smooth things out ;-D

incorrect information, Benfica sign him to a 3 year extension and all the paper work necessary was in the Superliga offices and the Portuguese federation, the players his only getting the back of the players union, of course, Benfica will wait but they will get the money.

Aha, so his contract did end but he signed an extension ? Ok, I read on Skysports that he had annulled his contract which sounded to me kinda of odd. Ok so what's the deal now? He signed the extension and then changed his mind or what?

you are on the ball park he signed a 3 year deal, first he wanted to buy out, and was supposed to report to camp, but he was a no show, Benfica refused to deal with his agent the same guy the got involved with Maniche, Benfica also won the case and he finish his contract on the B team
