Wednesday rumours

• In amongst all the attention on Lampard, Scolari made some rather under reported comments about Ronaldinho yesterday. When asked of the Brazilian forward's future, he responded: "We have some players in that position. I think Ronaldinho goes to another club in England." Is Barcelona's refusing to let him play in the Olympics a sign of their desperation to sell him as quickly as possible?
  

• This article in Sport says that although Benfica are favourites to sign Espanyol's Luis Garcia, City, along with Tottenham, are interested. There are a few quotes from the player saying how much he'd like to play with Quique Sanchez Flores, although apparently they are unwilling to pay the €15million (£12million) price tag.

• The daily rumour round-up in France Football links us with Lens left back Nadir Belhadj. Despite only joining RC Lens in January, he is being suggested likely to move away. For the last few weeks, Celtic and Portsmouth have been the main names in the frame, so it's good to see us in there. For only €4million (£3.2million) he could be just what we need.
