The Djemba Twins To Move

Martin O’Neill is looking at options for 26-year-old midfielder Eric Djemba-Djemba who has been on loan at Burnley.

The former Manchester United player, who was brought in by Sir Alex Ferguson as a potential replacement for Roy Keane amazingly (!) is wanted by Burnley boss Steve Cotterill who said: ‘Djemba-Djemba has been fantastic and if there was the opportunity to keep him I’d only be too delighted to have him. He has come in and definitely added something to us. He passes it as well as anybody has in my time here.’

O’Neill has admitted to communications between himself and Cotterill. ‘He has spoken to me very, very briefly on it. I know that their season has just ended. I will sit down with Eric. I will sit down with whoever he has working for him as well, at the same time, and discuss it. I will think it through…’

Jumper Jumper says he would like to be in the Prem but won’t want to return to Villa if he isn’t wanted.

Be good if he can get a move, it is obvious he won’t make it at Villa so hopefully he’ll get himself sorted this summer.
