Gudjohnsen keeping all options open

Asked about his future, Barcelona attacker and Icelandic international Eidur Gudjohnsen (30), whose contract expires next year, is quoted by Spanish news agency EFE as saying after the pre-season friendly against Tottenham that he still doesn't know where he will play next season:

"Despite the rumours that I could leave this summer, I'm now focusing on the physical aspect, trying to get in shape as good as possible. A return to England? England is not the only country where football is being played. There are a lot of options."

Catalan sports paper Sport meanwhile claims that it's unlikely Gudjohnsen will stay this season, although this could depend on the incoming transfers for the midfield positions. Barcelona also wouldn't be willing to let the player go for free.

We can't get anything for him, as usual, because we pay so insane wages that no club wants to pay a reasonable transfer fee when we sell.

we can offer him in a part exchange deal though, maybe in cesc, mascherano, affelay and montolivo. ok we aren't linked with montolivo but i like that guy.

Afellay sounds good to me,he's technical and hungry for success...barca is ideal place for him

in accordance to Affelay: Eidur played there as a youngster, but i don't think he'll go back to the dutch league and dutch wages if he can go to a team like West Ham or Villa or..
