The Bullspit about Figo ends here
Luis Figo has poured cold water on reports linking him with a move to Queens Park Rangers.
The Portuguese wing wizard is no longer a regular starter for Inter and his days in Milan could well be numbered.
He has been linked with big-money moves to Qatar and United States, but recent reports have suggested he could be lured to Loftus Road by R’s owners Bernie Ecclestone and Flavio Briatore.
The rumours were fuelled by Figo’s arrival in London, but his trip is due to his ambassadorial role for the Stop TB Charity and he was in the dark about rumours linking him with Rangers.
“It is a surprise for me, I don’t know what to say,” Figo said on Setanta Sports News. “There is nothing real, so there is nothing to say.”
Figo also laughed off reports which suggested he had purchased a home in the English capital.
He added: “I would like to, it is a good investment, but it is not true.”
I have read many reports but coming from the horses mouth means more than the guesswork coming from certain parties
Even though its nice I really couldn't see him coming here...why would you want to when there are bigger and better above us?? we are not good enough yet thats a fact....but the dream was nice!! :laugh:
the transfer was mentioned on football italia on sunday and it was headline news in the gazzetta italia sports pages.
I have been hearing this for weeks and now the man has spoken, I know who I believe
Lying supporters and media
Inter Milan's Luis Figo has spoken for the first time on his proposed move to Loftus Road for the very first time...
Portuguese international star Luis Figo has spoken for the very first time on his proposed move to Queens Park Rangers after speculation surfaced across certain media sources about his future.
According to some national outputs, Flavio Briartore has allegedly been in discussion with the Inter Milan star and the new Queens Park Rangers owners are keen to land the 35 year old in time for next season's campaign.
Now, in his first public statement on the speculation, Figo insisted - "Why the hell would I want to go to a second rate team like QPR..? they are facing probable relegation and even at 35 Im better than that!!...they may be rich but Im not that desperate..I will probably retire soon anyway."
Papers need to sell papers, sports departments need to generate sports stories, but perhaps on this occassion - before we are all so quick scoff at such suggestions - the old adage 'no smoke without fire' needs bearing in mind... especially in the little minded lying supporters of England.
how do we know that isnt poetic licence being used by a journo to sell papers glen.if the stories are true it would be dreamsville for us.i for one will wait until the summer and see what happens.if it was last year i would have laughed at it like most would have but the club has changed beyond our wildest dreams.
