Rozehnal Calls Time On Newcastle!

Lazio have had the player on loan this season, but they claim they want to sign the defender permanently.

Rozehnal started off fairly well after his signing in the summer, but was dropped by Sam Allardyce after a couple of dodgy performances.

The Czech Republic international claimed the Premiership was "too physical" for him, and he prefered a move away from England.

He was brought back into the frame but as a defending midfielder, which had him struggling like a fish out of water.

Kevin Keegan let him go to the Italian league, but again the defender struggled.

But he played out the end of the season in the first team, and seems to have convinced the Italian club he has a future there.
