Luccin: Has options
French midfielder Peter Luccin claims he has the chance to move to England.
North East duo Sunderland and Middlesbrough have both been strongly linked with the 29-year-old in Spain, where Luccin is currently with Real Zaragoza.
However, following Zaragoza’s relegation from La Liga, Luccin is now keen to move on and is now considering the Premier League, just 12 months after he shunned the chance to join Birmingham City.
Interest
“Clubs are interested in France, in Italy and in England,” Luccin told France Football.
“But we don’t know if my club will allow me to leave or ask for a transfer fee. I don’t have a particular wish.
“Why not Ligue 1, even if it’s a less famous league? There are good teams: Marseille, Paris, Monaco, Bordeaux…
“I was proposed a contract extension [by Atletico Madrid] during the 2006/2007 season but the number of years didn’t suit me.
“The directors offered me one more year while I wanted three. It wasn’t about wages.
“Then the season started badly at Zaragoza, the atmosphere was not always good in the dressing room and there were factions.”
