Ludovic Giuly has made a surprising statement rejecting both English and French clubsides.


In a surprise U-turn to earlier held desires by FC Barcelona star, Ludovic Giuly, the French star has made a reversal of his goal to play in France next season, choosing to fight for a place in Barca next season. Giuly has also rejected a move to English premiership sides Tottenham Hotspur and Newscastle United, two Premiership clubs that have made offers to secure the services of the gifted left winger.
Giuly had plans of moving back to his home country France, and French clubs Olympique Marseille and Lyon were interested in sugning Ludo should he decide to come back home. This was one English interests surfaced and Giuly was left to decide where to stay. All seemed quite likely for a move to Tottenham this summer until Giuly changed his ind and is now bent on staying in Barcelona to see out the final year in his contract. Giuly said:

I have decided to stay at Barcelona.In the last days I have rejected offers from England and France. My desire has not changed and I believe I am capable of doing something for Barcelona. Now I wait for official communication from the club and if I do not know anything in ten days I will return to work as normal with Barcelona.

As the drama unfolds, events over the next few weeks will determine where Ludovic Giuly will be at the start of next season.
