Title: Kanu: It's all about money!.....(not loyalty)
Post by: andre samuel on December 15, 2006, 10:27:51 AM
Look how Kanu going and start tuh get boo at Fratton Park.....he is so stupid!!

www.skysports.com

Kanu has suggested that loyalty means nothing to him by admitting that he might fancy a move away from Fratton Park in January.

The Nigerian striker only joined the club at the start of the season and has been an unexpected success in his time thus far.

Kanu is currently the Premiership's joint top scorer with nine goals, and his efforts have propelled Portsmouth into an unlikely position of fourth in the table.

However it has been rumoured that Ajax are lining up a bid for the lanky forward, and Kanu admits that he could be enticed away from Pompey by a better offer.

"It's all about the money. If a better offer comes, I will take it," Kanu told a Nigerian radio station.

"I appreciate Portsmouth and their fans but I am just waiting for the January transfer window to come - let's see what will happen."

Take these stories witha grain of salt...the English press is notorious for misquoting people to breed controversy.

That's just another way for his agent to get Kanu a wage increase. Some agents do this all the time. I doubt Kanu will leave the prem. He will probably renegotiate a new deal in January with Portsmouth. Him and Kenwyne Jones would make a fantastic strike pair if Kenwyne moved on to Portsmouth.

The story is very misleading. Kanu only ever had a 1-year contract, so he is free to discuss moves in January, like any other player in his situation.

I hope and pray he was mis-quoted, otherwise the perception will continue that African players can be very good ballers but not all that smart.

Blessings.

What is loyalty really?in the world of Football it's business down the line,these clubs making a mint off a those guys,all of them moving because of money,Kanu was struggling the past year or so, now he pick himself up to where everybody wants him why not take advantage of it.Look at Ballack and Cheva why people don't say they went Chelsea for the money they can't see their way big disappointment.How long does Kanu have in the game,it's a matter of take care of yourself.
