The forward of the club Patrick Kluivert has stated that he is ready to leave the Catalan club and move to play in the English Premier League. This player's decision was prompted by the statement of the team's coach F. Rijkaard that the club would like to buy Michael Owen as a replacement for P. Kluivert.
The 27-year-old Dutchman's contract with Barcelona is valid for another year. The player told BBC today that he would not have negotiated with other clubs, despite having one year left to play.
"Although I still have one more year to play, I am now ready to negotiate a new contract with any club interested in me," said the player.
