Short Of Numbers And We Loan Rozehnal To Lazio! WHY?

Last updated : 01 February 2008 By Footy Mad - Editor
It took some believing, but trust me ... it is official ... Newcastle defender David Rozehnal has joined Lazio on loan until the end of the season.

The Czech Republic international, who only arrived at St James' Park in the summer, will spend the remainder of the campaign with the Serie A club.

The 27-year-old defender has been playing in midfield in recent games beside THREE wingers (Charles N'Zogbia, James Milner and Damien Duff) because Kevin Keegan simply didn't have much choice. 

If you were fit ... you played! Regardless what position you were used to.

And now, after 21 appearances for Newcastle this season, the Czech is off to Italy with no replacement signed in the transfer window.
