Former FC Barcelona star, Javier Saviola is not having the dreamed lifestyle he wanted in Real Madrid.



Argentine whizkid, Javier Saviola didn't quite get the deal he had hoped for when he left Barca to arch rivals, Real Madrid. After great promises and sweet talk from Madrid helmsman, Calderon, Saviola has ended up in the shadows of soccer action as the ex-Barca star is left out in the cold.

Perhaps the former U-21 world's best player and all time leading scorer in any single FIFA age group tournament may have enjoyed some more playing time were he to remain in Camp Nou. Now, report indicates that the Los Merengues are planning to loan out Saviola to either Juventus or any other Italian club, and if this doesn't work out, then an English clubside.


How come with all Saviola's unsurpassed records in youth soccer and still impressive skills, he is finding it hard to tie down a regular place in any club? The striker has sored for FC Barcelona and scored for his new club Real Madrid, yet he doesn't get enough action. What could be the jinx?

Damià Abella, Barca´s young right wing back on loan to Racing Santander since January has been one of Racing's success stories this season, but he admitted after tonight's match that he'd like to come back to Barca:

"I'm very happy to be playing here, where I can push forward more, but I'd love to come back to play at Barca. Rijkaard congratulated me after the game tonight on how things are going".

Many Barca supporters would like to see the young talented Catalan player to ply his trade at Camp Nou. Damia scored three goals in 11 matches for Racing before meeting his Ex-Barca team mates. About the match, Damià commented:

"I think we could have got another goal, we had a couple of dangerous counter attacks. We're proud of how we did, but the three points would have been better".

Racing Santander is the team with the worst home record in the spanish Primera league. The weaness of Racing is obvious - Santander have won only 3 times in their 15 games at the Sardinero stadium this season, which still leaves them only two points above the relegation zone.
This season Racing have only managed to beat Espanyol, Villareal and València at the Sardinero, drawing five more and losing seven of their championship games.

Additionally Racing also have the worst scoring record at home with just 11 goals. They only scored in 8 of their 15 games. Only three times have they managed to score more than one goal drawing 2-2 with Real Sociedad, losing 2-3 to Seville and when beating Valencia 2-1.
The situation at present does not look good. Racing Santander won just 6 points from the last 24, with just one win out of their last eight, against Valencia.

Racing Santander was very active in the January transfer market. they signed the players Valencia, Garay, Pablo Alfaro, Lee, Pinilla and Damià. Damià´s loan signing from Barca has proved to be the best signing so far. The young right wing back has played 11 matches and scored three times since.
