Diego Forlan could return to the Premier League next season
If Manchester City are looking for someone who can compete with Robinho in terms of inconsistency, they may have found their man.
The Citizens are reported to be targeting Diego Forlan, who has banged in nineteen goals for Ateltico Madrid this season - almost twice his tally in two-and-a-half years at Manchester Utd.
Ateltico Madrid are said to be ready to ‘cash in’ on Forlan at the end of the season if someone offers the right price, and have already received interest from Tottenham and Sunderland.
The Uruguayan striker’s agent Daniel Bolotnikoff told Sky Sports:
“I have received calls from big European clubs requesting information about the situation, but I am not authorised to give their names.
“Forlan could have a big role in England.”
Spoiler bonus: We find it impossible to write a post about Diego Forlan without including video of the greatest moment in his career…

I’d reckon his greatest moment would be the 2 goals at Anfeild that sunk the scousers; granted it’s a horrible miss but in a friendly. He’s won the top scorer award in Spain and Europe at a small club like Villareal and has been one of Atletico’s best players. He has a horrible record in England though and would not be a success for Citeh.
