Jon 0 Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Sunderland boss Roy Keane is ready to smash his wage ceiling to land Rangers defender Carlos Cuellar.The Sunday Mirror says Keane is ready to make Cuellar the highest paid player in Sunderland history after lodging a �£7million bid for the Rangers defender. Boss Keane hopes to lure the 26-year-old Spanish star, the Scottish Premier League player of the year, by offering him �£45,000 a week - well above what any player currently rakes in at the club. Hope this isn't true. Even if it is, I hope he ignores the money offer, he could do far far better than Sunderland.......in a COUPLE of seasons 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,552 Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Cuellar has already said he won't move to an EPL provincial club. Hopefully we can keep him here unless a really big team comes calling with serious money. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete 2,499 Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 From 15-20(guess) to 45.000 is a big incentive to play for anyone. I don't know if he will ever play for one of the top teams as he is limited in his forward play. I don't see Arsenal or Manu being interested in him to be honest. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon 0 Posted June 23, 2008 Author Share Posted June 23, 2008 I thought manure had scouts at a couple of games, an this was after Hutton. I could be wrong but sure I heard it somewhere.... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
theboyharley 5 Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Rangers are trying to offer him a new deal to get rid of this 10M release clause, or at the very least increase it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete 2,499 Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Rangers are trying to offer him a new deal to get rid of this 10M release clause, or at the very least increase it. Are they wanting it down to 8M. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
