Catalan sports paper Sport claims that at the end of the US tour, a decision will be made on the future of Barcelona attacker and Iceland international Eidur Gudjohnsen (30).
British tabloid The Daily Mail meanwhile claims that West Ham is still interested in the Icelandic player (read more here).
West Ham manager Gianfranco Zola would remain determined to sign his former Chelsea team-mate and the English Premier League club would now be trying to sell striker Dean Ashton to generate the funds needed to sign Gudjohnsen, who would be available at 6 million euro°.

I say keep him!
He will be valuable in our many games and we're already one attacking midfielder short since Hleb has left and Keita will be away for some weeks.
6M is no great sum, the problem is that his salary is pretty high (5.5M i think?) which places him pretty high in the ranks. None the less. If he doesn't mind being on the bench we could very well renew him for 2 more years with a lower salary and let him stay here, thus also keeping his kids in the youth ranks.
But if he wants to play more and we can find a good replacement a wish him all the best.
6 million euro =
5 million british pound
8 million us dollar
will he EVER go away?
seriously...every F'in year some bottom teams from EPL are interested (West Ham every year involved) and at the end nothing happens.
Last year his price tag in the media was 3.5 mio. and now his contract runs out next year its 6 mio.? lol
He performed better this season and played more.
He worth more than that. But his contract expire next summer.
