FOOTBALL- Sandro Rosell promises one more signing before the Transfer window closes: FC Barcelona president, Sandro Rosell, has announced that there will be one more player added to the squad before the end of the month, referring to the long awaited central defender, which was asked for by Barca’s coaches. Rosell made the comments during the thirty-sixth edition of the Barcelona World Peñas (Barcelona World Supporters Clubs), which is being held at the Palau de Congresosin the Catalan capital of Barcelona. The president alluded to the fact that it is not always easy to sign the players intended because some clubs have no wish to sell. Reading between the lines, we understand he was talking about the Thiago Silva saga. In the end, Paris Saint-Germain didn’t want to sell one of their prized assets and there was nothing that Barca could do. The whole affair ended in a very unsavoury way with the PSG owner threatening to execute Leo Messi’s buyout clause if the Catalans were successful inprising Silva away from the French outfit. The latest negotiations undertaken by the club are now focusing fully on the following players: Chelsea’s David Luiz, and Daniel Agger from Liverpool.
