Neill now linked with Atletico Madrid
03.09.09 | Andrew Slevison
Former West Ham captain Lucas Neill is now being linked with Spanish club Atletico Madrid.
The Australian international, who is currently a free agent after his contract with the Hammers expired at the end of last season, is reportedly close to joining Atletico according to The Sun.
It is believed that Neill has been offered £1.56million a year by the Spaniards which would be £5,000 less than what he was offered by West Ham to return to Upton Park.
Although the initial figure is less, Neill will only be taxed 20 per cent in Spain, meaning he will actually receive over £300,000 more than if he remained in England.
Britain's 50 per cent rate for high earners comes in next April.

Go u fat cunt. Its Champions league football + change in scenery. If this is anything to go by, he will join (apparently). it will be an amazing move. LOL@Neill speaking spanish.
IM loving Our World Cup line up + the clubs associated with them or rumored to be associated with them:
--------------------------------Mark Viduka (West Ham Utd)----------------------------
----------Kewell (FMR Liverpool)------Cahill (Everton)----------Emerton(Blackburn)-
-------------------------------Culina (fmr PSV)---Grella (Blackburn)---------------
---Carney (Twente)--Moore (Fmr Rangers)---Neill (Atletico Madrid)---Wilkshire (Dynamo Moscow)
-----------------------------------Schwarzer (Fulham)------------------------------
Question is, do we play Emo at RB or RW with Bresicano as RM. Lone striker is Mark Viduka's if he returns No questions asked. (even a half Mark viduka, if that makes sense). Because thats what system Pim will play and he wont change it not even for the WC.
But atm im not a big fan of bres, he is very slow. and his quality on the ball hasnt been good as of late. Emerton Gives us some pace at RW and his quality crosses are second to none. Hes also not a bad FK taker as Aston Villa found out last season.

Imnofreaks Facebook reports that the move is imminent. Is there any proof? No. Do we care? No.
Andy Harper I would bet my hat that neither of those moves will come to fruition. Edited by imnofreak: 3/9/2009 06:26:32 PM Never say never.
You just said it twice.
