Nikola Zigic, Who Do You Think You Are?

Nikola Zigic, 202 centimeters tall Racing Santander striker has become very famous in Spain and especially in Santander. Zigic stated that he cannot walk the street or go anywhere with out being asked for an autograph which is an awesome accomplishment. However, Zigic stated another thing which disturbed me. He said that he is not ready for Barcelona or Real Madrid but he also wouldn't want to end up in Fenerbahce like "Kezman". I think that he has no right to say such a thing because Mateja Kezman AKA The Batman had scored more than 100 goals in 3 seasons while playing for PSV. Besides they were national team mates and played well alongside one another. I think that Zigic is becoming another conceited professional athlete who does not possess 1 gram of character.

Zigic in Tottenham???

Racing Santander have lowered Zigic's price to a realistic 10 million Euros as opposed to 25 million. As things stand now, the most serious potential buyer is Tottenham from London. Juventus is still in the game and Manchester City are very much interested in the Serbian striker. Zigic currently has scored 9 goals and assisted to 10 goals this season for Racing Santander.

Zigic Scores a Hat-Trick!

Racing Santander beat Athletic Bilbao today 5:4. Zigic contributed 3 goals and will probably be announced the Spanish Primera player of the week, maybe even player of the month.

Nikola Zigic Punished 3 Matches:

Nikola Zigic has been given a 3 match ban by UEFA for receiving a red card against Kazakhstan. He already missed one game against Portugal and so he will be gone for 2 more games against Finland and Belgium which are both very tough EURO 2008 qualifiers being played away. Javier Clemente will have to call another striker - probably Milan Jovanovic (Standard Liege) or Mateja Kezman (Fenerbahce) who are both in good for as of late. Serbian fans would rather see Mateja Kezman but Milan Jovanovic has been on fire for Standard Liege so it's a tough call.

Kazakhstan-Serbia (0:0)2:1

A very strong and very good fundamental team Kazakhstan beat Serbia today 2:1. This was Kazakhstan's first win in European qualifying.

Goals:K. Ashirbekov (47th), N. Zhumaskaliev (61st) for Kazakhstan and N. Zigic (68th) for Serbia.

Serbia takes on Portugal this Wednesday in sold-out Marakana.

Nikola Zigic In Juventus?

Juventus announced today that they have extra 100 Million Euros. Most of this money will be directed towards keeping big names like David Trezeguet and G.Buffon. However, Juventus are also planning on signing a couple of fresh faces like Serbian Striker Nikola Zigic who currently plays for the Spanish side Racing Santander. Zigic currently holds a indespensible status at his current club. I don't think that Racing Santander will let Zigic go for less than 20 Million Euros. Many say that Zigic who is 25 years old is the Serbian version of Peter Crouch(Liverpool).
