2 games in to my 1st season with Elgin City I am approached by Barcelona becuase they want to buy my right back.

How daft is that? Why would Barcelona be interested in a Scottish 3rd Div player at a club who's promotion chances are at best s***?

Because of his potential.

To the point Kostis.

I take your point but Barcelona have much bigger fish to fry, why would they be interested in an average player at best?

Please don't say potential again! Has anyone else had this kind of transfer request?

Kfoolmoon

Because he's cheap.

Sorry, just noticed that.

Because they know something you don't.

After rich Western clubs have fully exploited Asia, by buying 1 mediocre player to boost shirt sales, they have clearly decided to turn to the untapped resources of Scotland (full of mediocre players).

Presumably, this will also result in 60 Scottish girls attending the Nou Camp every week (although it's difficult to tell with those kilts).
