Metzelder ‘snubs’ Italian duo
Thursday 8 March, 2007
Inter and Juventus have reportedly lost out to Real Madrid in the race to sign Christoph Metzelder at the end of the season.
The 26-year-old will be available on a free transfer in the summer once his Borussia Dortmund deal expires and he had caught the eye of the Italian giants.
However, stories on Thursday are claiming that Real Madrid have reached an agreement with the player.
The German international is thought to have already passed his medical with the Liga club and agreed financial terms.
Metzelder will, according to the speculation, sign a contract until 2011 worth £2.8m a season.
