Photo(shop) of the Day: Anelka reaches deal with Shanghai Shenhua

By: Jack | December 11th, 2011
   

I’d say this makes Nicolas Anelka’s move to the People’s Republic pretty damn official, eh?

Sweet robot

Read more about the deal via the Shenhua official website.

The club says Anelka has agreed to a two-year deal with the Blue Devils. Rumor is he’ll be on something like £200-plus thousand per week over there – ridiculous, but an impressive pull. I just hope we will receive a nice piece of cake in the form of a transfer fee.

Anyway, good luck to the Frenchman as he enters this new adventure.

    Surely Best Wishes Nico, joining another Blues. I lived in Shanghai for a year. Great Stadium with capacity of 80,000 people. Different beast CSL, surely is. The last FA chief and vice chief of China are now in Jail over corruption. I hope Nico will love it there, great food, great city, and great people. 

  • He looks good in blue.

    Good luck Nico, you've been great to the club while you were here. 
    This is probably the best way for him to leave without launching too much crap at either side, so I hope it's respectful and amicable (well, as amicable as being forced to train with teenagers can be). 

    CSL is an entirely different beast, so I pray he adapts quickly. 

    *end of formalities*

    I hope he takes his grey cloud of Le Sulkiness with him, the team needs some fresh sunlight. Good on AVB on clearing out the cobwebs.

    The robot in the background just adds that little bit of intrigue, hahaha.

  • Pure genius.
