D'Alessandro Saga Continues

Last updated : 12 June 2006 By Jim Bonner
The Andres D'Alessandro saga rages on as more clubs have apparently revealed their interest in the Argentinian star. However once again it is the Portugese giants Benfica who are supposed favourites to land him according to the same magazine that initially quoted Andres himself saying he wanted to move to Benfica.

The magazine in question is O Jogo and is based in Portugal, so just as the previous interview was conducted, this one can't be taken too seriously although this time it's D'Alessandro's agent who is saying "If Benfica can reach an agreement with Wolfsburg, we will not have a problem." Maybe one of the writers for this magazine is a Benfica fan perhaps? Anyhow according to O Jogo Benfica have already agreed personal terms with Andres.

Harry Redknapp says we're still in the running to sign D'Alessandro but we will "have to wait and see". La Liga side Real Zaragoza have also expressed a strong interest in the player.

The saga continues....
