Boumsong a Wanted Man
By Nick Raynor

Newcastle United defender Jean-Alain Boumsong has told that many clubs have shown an interest in him but he has solid offer yet.
Boumsong did not enjoy the best run of form last year for the Magpies and when Glenn Roeder took over, he lost his place in the starting XI.
The magpies paid £8.5 million for the Frenchman, who has given a disappointing return.
And now, Boumsong may look set to leave St. James’ Park, with any number of clubs being his possible destination.
Boumsong said:
''All these contacts exist and are recent, but as regards anything concrete there is nothing signed and for the moment I still belong to
''All of these clubs have their attractions.
''With Marseille there is the adrenaline of playing in front of a passionate crowd every week and not forgetting that the club has a great history and has seen some great players.
''What's more Djibril (Cisse) and Franck (Ribery) could also be there which would be nice for me.
''Monaco are trying to build a great side and should be right up there this season; while Juventus, although they might be in Serie B, they will not be there long with (Didier) Deschamps in charge.''
