Not I...

I was told at Christmas he wasn't happy. If he wants out then we should let him.

We need a replacement though...

Tbh I alway thought that Eto's time at the club would be dictated by Kone's availability and post-injury performances.

Same, and Kone as done well.

The only reason I can see him going is with an attacker coming in to take his place.

Would be surprised if he went there, it's the retirement home. Especially after all that "I still have the hunger and want to play for a big club" talk when we first signed him.

Imagine we got 5mil for him or something.

the lad is valuable in europa league and will be an asset when our form improves

This for me. Why sign someone like him in the summer then sell him 6/7 months later? His influence and experience of winning at the highest level is worth his wages on its own if you ask me.

This is the only way it makes sense. But then, if these teams wanted him so bad, where were they in the summer?

I really hope this is just a case of two teams came in for him, and Bobby's told him we want to keep you, but thought it right to let you know, and that he'll turn them down and stay.

It's easy for me.

If he wants to stay, superb, let him stay.

If he wants to go, get rid.

@TransfersCalcio: Samuel Eto'o has rejected Santos. He only wants Sampdoria and is very close to joining! (via @DiMarzio)

A return Italy is looking more and more likely for Samuel Eto'o. The Everton striker has during the past few hours rejected an offer of € 5 million over two seasons from the Brazilian outfit Santos because he only wants Sampdoria.

The parties continue to speak over the phone and seem to be getting closer and closer by the minute as the Serie A prepares to welcome the Cameroonian striker back.

To be honest I'm not fecked what Eto'o gets out of this if he wants to leave or we want him out fine.

I am however interested if we'll be receiving any fee for a player who's got 18 months left on his current contract. Although I'm starting to question whether it was actually a 2 year deal as originally stated.
