You can tell it’s silly season and the transfer market is almost upon us when players like Samuel Eto’o are linked with Juventus.

The Gazzetta Dello Sport would have us believe the Juve are lining up a deal for Eto’o as a backup to their original plan of signing Didier Drogba.

Eto’o has had a war of words with Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho and doesn’t seem likely to stay on in London.

The Cameroonian scored nine goals and created 2 assists in 21 Premier League appearances last season.
