Cracking player.

"So far no one has contacted me in an official way, although I’ve been informed that some Italian and English clubs are interested in him."

According to Sostres, Puyol does not want to talk to Barcelona about any more modifications of his contract. Puyol has succeeded against the odds in Catalunya as Lorenzo Serra Ferrer was on the verge of selling him to Malaga a couple of years ago.

Sadly, he's Catalan and therefore hasn't a snowball's chance in hell of leaving Barca at the moment. They are a bit under-represented since the departure of Guardiola and will be keen to hang onto anyone in-form to keep the loony nationalist fringe happy...

He's awesome - we couldn't afford him.
