Barca rozwiazala kontrakt z kolejnym pilkarzem i nie byloby w tym nic
dziwnego, gdyby nie nazwisko tego zawodnika. A jest nim... RIVALDO. Czystka w
wykonaniu Louisa Van Gaala trwa nadal.

Barcelona have agreed to terminate Rivaldo's contract, prompting a scramble
for the Brazilian superstar's signature.
The World Cup-winner had a year to run on his Nou Camp contract, but the club
and the player reached a mutual decision allowing him to quit with immediate
effect.
A Barca statement read: "Barcelona and Rivaldo announce that they have
reached an agreement which ends the professional relationship that has been
maintained over the last five years.
"Both parties believe this decision is in their mutual interest and want to
express a satisfactory relationship has been maintained, as well as the good
spirit in which the conversations have been carried out.
"Barcelona wants to recognise the contribution of Rivaldo and his
professionalism throughout all these years at the club."
Just this week Rivaldo was heavily linked with a controversial move the
Catalan club's bitter rivals Real Madrid.
Real laughed off the speculation, but ominously for Barca fans, the European
Champions' final word on the subject, courtesy of sporting director Jorge
Valdano was: "If Rivaldo were to become free that could interest us."
Another potential destination is Newcastle - Toon boss Bobby Robson
registered his interest during the World Cup finals this summer.
