Good!
For all the criticism he gets, 16 goals this year is crap right?
No equivalent striker is willing to go to Barca anyways right now because of the problems of this past season.

Kluivert has always been a bit of a prima-donna

Remember the AC Milan saga, he spend ages decided whether he was staying or going then when he was going he was supposed to be going to Man Utd for 3 weeks and then appeared at Barca

If you get a consistant season out of him it will be a miracle

It doesnt say that he defiantly is staying

 

[Parra Power]

wow this is different........ rumours that someone is staying at their club

If he does leave they will definitely find it hard to find someone useful to replace him that will be in their transfer budget, which looks to be practically empty.

Though I think alot of players would still like to play for a club like Barca.

The dream is over. Kluivert and Ruud will only appear as strike partners for Holland.


So sad.

Kluiver stays because he hasn't found any team who pays him more than barça, even with the salary cut.

Maybe he is not as good as the thinks, and nobody is so crazy to pay him the fortune he was earning last year in Barcelona.

He's a great player that can make unbelievable things with the ball, but he hasn’t been a key player. He hasn’t scored winning goals.

I wouldn’t mind him leaving Barça, but if he stays he needs a good striker to play with him. Someone who can score goals and take advantage of the holes Kluiver creates in the opponents defense, that’s something he does very well.

Haha yeah interesting one. I dont think Barcelona would be able to find a replacement striker for the reported cut-price fee Kluivert was supposed to be available for. 1.2million was the rough figure that i read. But yeah, He'll probably stay.
