Yesterday, the Spanish club that announced the acquisition of Nihat Kahveci from "Real Sociedad" today announced that they should sign an official contract with the safe of the London and French national team next week Roberto Pires.
Pires has been linked with the "Villarreal" team for some time, but did not rush to make a decision and considered the possibility of staying in London. The player wanted to keep him in his club and "Arsenal" coach Arsene Wenger, offering a two-year contract extension at the last minute, but "Villarreal" president Fernando Roig says he is sure that the Frenchman will be officially introduced to the fans of the team next week.
"Pires will play in the UEFA Champions League final on Wednesday, and when everything is over, next week he will arrive in Spain to officially sign the contract," said Roig.
"We have already signed a contract with Nihat, so Pires will be the second, but certainly not the last purchase for our team before the new season," said the President of "Villarreal" nurturing ambitions for the coming years.
True, Pires himself continues to deny that he has already agreed with "Villarreal" to represent this club next season, but now almost no one doubts that the 32-year-old defender will leave the London team in the near future and move to Spain.
