The Magi are the sheikhs

The Christmas season arrived, Sheikh Abdullah bin Nasser Al Thani, a member of the Qatari royal family, received a letter from a so Manuel, who claimed it had behaved very well during the year although some people had done bad things-attached several covers of Brand -proof, which asked a series of gifts. Al Thani got to the works to their pages and sent to Munich and Rome, and back, make a stop at the banks of the Manzanares. Once the packages arrived in Malaga, Sheikh could not endure until the day 6 and Manolito and await their gifts under a plastic fir.

This is the first Martin Demichelis, central Argentine Clausura winner of two and four Bundesliga and titrate with the Albiceleste in the last World Cup. Arrives on loan from Bayern Munich and Malaga CF (18 °, 13 points) only need to take care of the tab. In addition, reserves a purchase option at the end of this campaign for three million euros, provided that the anchovies do not lose more.

The second and most striking of the gifts is called Júlio Baptista, formerly of Sevilla, Madrid, Arsenal and Roma, who won the Spanish league and champion of the Copa America with the Canarinha. Rome charged 2 million euros for the transfer and signed for the remainder of the season and two more. The club has not been confirmed but Italian media said that his tab up to 2.5 million amount.

The third package is a two for one purchased at Atletico Madrid: the signing of Ignacio Camacho, to 1.5 million and the transfer of Sergio Asenjo. The midfielder arrives for the remainder of the season and four more and the Atleti reserve an option for the first two. The goalkeeper, however, has no option, because they want to hold those behind Atletico if De Gea is just going in summer.

Besides these four acquisitions, one must not forget that Sheikh had already tied to Enzo Maresca, who was unemployed since rescinded his contract with Olympiakos on 29 August. Now joins Espanyol discipline after having been training with Fiorentina in recent months. At thirty years, Manchester will be the eighth club Maresca-before: West Bromwich Albion, Bologna, Juventus, Piacenza, Fiorentina, Sevilla and Olympiakos, and is committed until 2012.

Not even stop because Sheikh Al Thani is triune, ie is Melchor, Gaspar and Baltasar reincarnated in one person. For the moment, Jose Carlos Perez, director of Malaga and favorite page of Al Thani, has already recognized that submitted an offer to Sporting by Jose Angel, a move that apparently has not sat well in Gijón. On the other hand, Javier Guerra, Valladolid striker has told Manchester that has shown interest in taking their services. Manolito therefore can be any other surprises, even during the January sales.

But of course, to fit some others have to go. So Malaga has already announced a number of players who will not have to coach for the remainder of the season. The nominees are (roll): Edinho, Galatto, Edu Ramos, Juanito, Luque, Ivan Gonzalez. All have at least one year left on his contract so if you are not team players, Malaga must negotiate his departure with a breach of contract.
