Roberto Carlos offered to Juventus

tribalfooball.com - May 09, 2007

Juventus have turned down the chance of bringing Roberto Carlos back to Italy next season.

The Brazilian wing-back is leaving Real Madrid at the end of this term and was offered to Juve, says Corriere dello Sport.

However, Juve management turned down Roberto Carlos, as they have high hopes for Giorgio Chiellini and Cristian Molinaro next season.

Roberto Carlos to Marca

"We're going after the title; Barça aren't the same team they were and we're over the hump"

The Real Madrid squad is very optimistic with five more games to play this season. Knowing there's no room for mistakes, the players seem strong and with a burning desire to win.

“We're die hard Betis fans this weekend. They're a good team and they need the points to get out of the relegation zone. I've jumped on the ‘Viva er Beti, manque empate’ bandwagon. That would be enough to help us take the top spot.”

”We're going after the title. Barcelona are strong, but not the same team as last year. We're in good form and we've gotten over the hump. Everything is going right for us. We're confident, our team spirit has improved, and we think we are capable of playing well and winning. We are in great shape due to all the hard work since last preseason, meaning it must have been a well-thought plan.”

Roberto Carlos "A Die-Hard Betis Fan This Weekend"

The Real Madrid left back has joined the growing group of Madridista's airing the team's confidence, and superiority over a 'weakened' Barcelona side. The Brazilian is backing Betis to pick up at least a point this weekend.

Barcelona take on Real Betis at the Nou Camp on Sunday in a game the Catalans are favourites to win. However, Carlos is not giving up on hopes of an upset.

"We're die hard Betis fans this weekend," the Brazilian told Marca. "They're a good team and they need the points to get out of the relegation zone.

"I've jumped on the 'Viva er Beti, manque empate' bandwagon. That would be enough to help us take the top spot.

"We're going after the title. Barcelona are strong, but not the same team as last year.

"We're in good form and we've gotten over the hump. Everything is going right for us.

"We're confident, our team spirit has improved, and we think we are capable of playing well and winning.

"We are in great shape due to all the hard work since last preseason, meaning it must have been a well-thought plan."

Golden Foot 2007

Beckham, Cannavaro, Roberto Carlos, and Raúl among the ten finalists for the prestigious international award

The Golden Foot award is given to players over the age of 29 who have excelled on the pitch -both individually and as a member of their team- and who have earned the esteem of fans and football experts alike. Four Madridistas are among the ten finalists in this year's edition: David Beckham, Roberto Carlos, Raúl, and Fabio Cannavaro. The winner will be announced on 3 September in Monte Carlo.

Real Madrid will be well-represented during the 2007 edition of the Golden Foot award in Monte Carlo. Of the 10 aspiring finalists, four are Madridistas who will go up against the likes of Cafú, Del Piero, Figo, Giggs, Henry, and Maldini. The award is presented to footballers over the age of 29 who have excelled on the pitch and who have earned the esteem of fans and football experts alike. Personality is also taken into account.

The jury is comprised of 23 Golden Foot media partner representatives, while fans around the world make the final decision via Internet by accessing the award's official website. The winner leaves a permanent mold of his footprints on the “The Champions Promenade”, an international football “Walk of Fame” located on the seafront of the Principality of Monaco.

Prince Albert of Monaco presented last year's award to Ronaldo. The Brazilian international succeeded Ukraine's Shevchenko by taking 20,343 of the votes cast on the Golden Foot's official website. Luis Figo, Alessandro Del Piero, Beckham, Raúl, and Zidane were among the nominees. The list of winners of this prestigious award is vast, including Di Stéfano, Gento, Platini, Maradona, Best, Rivellino, Riva, and Weah.

Fabio Cannavaro is the odds-on favourite of this this year's edition, having already won the Balon d'Or, the FIFA World Player, the FIFpro, and the award naming him the best Italian player. He also raised the World Cup trophy as captain of the Italian national team.
