Smolarek a City target
Euzebiusz SmolarekCITY'S multi-national, multi-layered transfer wanted lists have been expanded to include Polish star Euzebiusz Smolarek.

Blues' boss Stuart Pearce is determined to bring in more firepower during the transfer window and Smolarek, who will be 26 in a week's time, is just one of many players home and abroad to catch his attention.

Sources in Smolarek's homeland suggest that several Premiership sides are interested in his signature and City confirmed last night that they had watched him.

Whether or not Smolarek makes it to England, it shows the calibre and standing of the kind of player Pearce is looking towards to improve his squad.

Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund would want around £2m for the World Cup striker who has been in impressive form in the German elite league since his move from Feyenoord in Holland.

Conclusion

Lodz-born Smolarek, who can play through the middle or out wide on the right and has even had a stint in central midfield, was named Polish Footballer of the Year in 2005 and has scored three times in as many games for his national side in the current Euro 2008 qualifying matches.

Unless investment talks between chairman John Wardle and financial suitors come to a remarkably swift conclusion, Pearce, who is fiercely determined not to sell in order to buy, will have only a limited budget in the window.

Even so, he has set himself the task of bolstering the Blues' strike-force for the second half of the season.

He wants at least one striker and an attacking midfielder and Lens' Olivier Thomert, a long-time target is still very much in his sights.

Not sure about you guys, but I'd love to see Smolarek joining Manchester City. This is my favourite club in whole Premiership and he's my fav player. Nevertheless here has played Kazzy Deyna(H). He would continue the short tradition of Polish players which have played here.(H)

well we can surely use a more consistent striker to partner Vassell since Samaras and Corradi are both ****e, but given our extremely limited funds, I'd say our top priority would be to get a new left back and possibly a central defender. if we sell Distin (God willing) and get some extra funds out of it, then Smolarek may be a realistic target (Y)

Smolarek is a bit **** so yeah he would be a realistic target.

I've read that the next Pearce's transfer target is Dawid Janczyk from Legia Warsaw. He would come to a City for less than 1 million euro. He's one of the most promising players in Polish league and he's only 19.

Janczyk is a striker. He needs to move from Legia and get more experience abroad. Surely he can become a class striker just has to get a chance. And what's about Samaras? Doesn't he doing well at City? I thought he has scored many goals in the last few matches.

Premiership duo eyeing Madlung


Tottenham and Manchester City are reported to be interested in Wolfsburg defender Alexander Madlung.

Reports emanating from Germany suggest the English duo are weighing up moves for the 24-year-old.

Local daily Wolfsburger Nachrichten claimed that scouts from both clubs have watched him in the past weeks and that the Premiership duo checked Madlung out during the recent 2-2 draw with Eintracht Frankfurt.

The former Under 21 international, who is tied to the club until 2009, has been in fine form since joining the Wolves from Hertha Berlin last summer.

Madlung won his first full international cap in Germany’s 2-0 win over Georgia last year and the giant defender is tipped for a big future in the game.


If he leaves, I really hope he goes to Man city. He can get way more playing time there than in Tottenham.
