The canterano club confirmed that next season will play in the ranks of Tottenham Hotspurs English

Despite that information was already known, has so far not been himself when Giovani dos Santos has confirmed that next year will not play in the ranks of the club. "The play next season at Tottenham," said the young Mexican.

Giovani, who witnessed the friendly faced teams from Mexico and Argentina, revealed that the presence of Juande Ramos on the bench for the 'Spurs' had been instrumental in that opted for the London team, even though they also had other interesting offers on the table, including that of Manchester City.

While the transfer of Giovani to Tottenham had been negotiated a few weeks ago, the London club wanted to make sure that the player was moving well from the operation of the left ankle that was submitted at the end of the league.

Barça will receive six million euros for the transfer of Giovani dos Santos, which can be converted into ten if it meets a number of objectives.

The Dutch technical Frank Rijkaard quoted Mexican players for the first match against English club in the semifinals of the Champions League. The call is also Thierry Henry and Leonel Messi.

French striker Thierry Henry returned to a call after Barcelona lost the last two games and suffer fever in the week, to face Manchester United in the semi-final of the Champions League.

The attacker Gallo, who this day returned to training after feverish absent for a table, was provided by the Dutch strategist Frank Rijkaard for mourning on Wednesday before the "Red Devils" at the Camp Nou.

For their part, Mexican Rafael Marquez, defense, and Giovani dos Santos striker, were also cited by the technician blaugrana for the first game of the series, where culés season will be played after the failure in the League.

The French defence Liliam Thuram was included in the roster of players, which compete with Marquez by the place in the eleven holder vacant following the sanction of captain Carles Puyol.

Marquez, the Argentine Lionel Messi and the Ivorian Yaya Toure must be careful not to be reprimanded at the meeting this Wednesday, as it deprives a yellow card for disputing the "return" from the Old Trafford stadium.

The defense Brazilian Jose Edmilson caused low because it presents discomfort in the back, so it was not included in the list of 18 summoned.

The call them up: Victor Valdes and Jose Pinto as porters, the Argentine Milito, Marquez, Xavi Hernandez, Touré, the French Eric Abidal and Liliam Thuram and Italian Gianluca Zambrota as defenses.

The Icelandic Ediur Gudjohnsen, Andres Iniesta, the Brazilian Sylvinho, the Portuguese Deco and Messi in the midfield and the Cameroonian Samuel Etoo, French Henry, Giovani and Bojan Krkic, in the lead.

Etoo y Giovani appear only in a fixed front of circumstances.

The consequences of the party on Wednesday to lead Schalke 04 that Frank Rijkaard have to think about a new solution for the line of attack at the meeting tonight in the New Colombino. Bojan, Henry joined yesterday Iniesta in the casualty list, and the technician keeps very few rounds to face a game in which the team plays the few options remain alive in the League.

Samuel Etooy Giovani dos Santos are the only two tips that came in the call that seem to enjoy a permanent position. The Cameroonian is the pichichi team in the championship with 12 goals, while the Mexican has enjoyed minutes in the second part in recent meetings once left behind their discomfort. Your continued participation virtually guarantees them ownership and great doubt lies in knowing who will be the third man to accompany them, as long as Rijkaard maintain its usual pattern of 4-3-3. Ezquerro, Gudjohnsen and young Victor Vazquez are the candidates.

The Dutch coach who is accustomed to respect the hierarchy within the apparel and this would give more options to Santi Ezquerro, especially taking into account that Gudjohnsen is playing this season in the middle of the field. The Riojan only participated in a party garter belts, to Espanyol in Montjuïc in the disputed 19 minutes, and in another European Champions League versus Alcoyano in marking the two goals of the team. A pubalgia he departed several weeks of training, but now fully recovered while waiting for his opportunity. Ezquerro holder is not in the League since February 4, 2007 when the disputed 90 minutes in the Kingdom of Navarro before Osasuna (0-0). Since then they have spent 14 long months in which his contribution has been only witness.

The second alternative would be to put Eidur Gudjohnsen on end. The Icelandic striker played for in his first season at Barça, supplying the injured Samuel Etoo during recovery time from his serious knee injury. However, Rijkaard has opted for him this year as mid - and it seems difficult converted, valuing that Andres Iniesta is low and requires a player to accompany Xavi and Toure. Another alternative would be the most innovative advance of the Ivorian inside, it would Edmílson Marquez or the pivot and then Guddy that it could act in front.

The third way would be to give an opportunity to finally Victor Vazquez. The front subsidiary has much more pace of competition that Ezquerro and his presence would be the least that would move pieces because Gudjohsen could act without problems in the spinal cord. The young player, co-generation Leo Messi, noted for its versatility and technical quality. It can operate in any of the three positions attack-although the center is where most outstanding and is easily to see goal.

Victor Vazquez came for the fourth time in a call, but in the three previous not had the opportunity to jump into the field of play. His fellow subsidiary Victor Sanchez and Pedrito have had better luck and have already been released in official competition with the shirt blaugrana.

In any event, Frank Rijkaard must solve the ballot with a front unpublished. Though the League seems impossible mission, the team could not afford to let escape three additional points as the Villarreal currently occupies the second position for best scoring average, and could re-open gap with a victory in Spain.

Hugo Sanchez intends to take in the Preolímpico March, but the player knows that the season will be seething azulgrana

It will be an important decision. Giovani Dos Santos must weigh between playing with Barça the final stretch of this season or move preolímpico of CONCACAF that Mexico must play by the middle of next March. The young striker is in a encucijada but does not hide his desire would be with men Frank Rijkaard on dates that can be positively keys to finalize the season in Spain. Their progress in the first team has the wind in its sails and move away from the discipline azulgrana at a conference as important would be very inappropriate.

The tournament will be held from 11 to 16 March in the United States, specifically in Tampa (Florida), Carson (California) and the finals in Nashville (Tennessee). The player should concentrate with their selection few days before it is lost several parties Champions League, League and Champions League depending on when he would like to Hugo Sanchez.

The Mexican has been screening these days in Madrid and is expected to come to Barcelona to try to negotiate its incorporation, but the player remains on the lookout. "The Federation wants it to go but it will be complicated by the timing. I spoke with Hugo Sanchez and would like to be with them but we all know that these dates will be very important to be Barça because they may decide many things. This is the last leg and that will help the team as it is, "says the young man crack.

The Barça have supported that qualifying is not dated by FIFA which is not required to relinquish his footballer if you do not want. What we also want the entity is Catalan clash with the Mexican National team in order to achieve future agreements.
