As everyone already knows, Rob Green is now a free agent and is seeking pastures new. There has been talk of Spurs or even QPR, who are on the lookout for a new keeper. News has come in that Spanish club Malaga are interested in Green, too.
This might appeal to Green as he would be paid well at Malaga as they have a backer with money to throw around. Past and recent signings for the Spanish club have been in the shape of ex Villareal star Santi Cazorla, ex Real Madrid frontman Ruud van Nistelrooy and Joachim, who came from Valencia.
Malaga is not a bad outfit and would be a good move for Green I think. A few months back they held Real Madrid to a draw with a last minute peach of a goal by Santi Cazorla which gave Casillas no chance whatsoever.
The club’s president Sheikh Abdullah Al Thani has poured the cash into the club and it shows. I think that Malaga can only get better and with Green’s help I’m sure they can make their presence felt in La Liga.
Malaga also has a large British following on the Costa del Sol and Green will probably feel right at home – he might even think that Malaga is like Bethnal Green on a Saturday night – who knows!
Green, who’s out of contract at the end of June has failed to agree new terms with the irons and I think it’s a bit of a shame to lose him – it doesn’t matter where he goes, we’ve lost a good keeper, haven’t we?
