Solano Snubs Portsmouth Bid

Last updated : 15 August 2007 By Footy Mad - Editor

After Sunderland boss Roy Keane hit out at the WAGs (wives and girlfriends) who have a hold over players he has tried to sign, we could be mistaken for thinking he was having a dig at our own Kieron Dyer and Nobby Solano.

Keane said the pull of "London fashion shops is a big attraction for wives and girlfriends", and with Dyer and Solano wanting to move to London for "family reasons", the connection was obvious.

But Nobby is standing firm - it is London or he stays on Tyneside - and the Pompey offer has been knocked back.
