Sport Witness asks "What's the story behind Everton striker Nikica Jelavic and Borussia Mönchengladbach?" and goes on to identify one throw-away sentence at an Italian outlet...

'Sotto contratto con l'Everton fino al 2016, l'attaccante croato Nikica Jelavic, classe 1985, è un obiettivo del Borussia Mönchengladbach.'.

The story is that there is no story. I also read something about David Villa going to Liverpool. Pfffff. LOL.

A club with the history and prestige of Everton should not be losing players to mediocre Bundesliga sides

And I heard that Captain America was leaving the Avengers to sign up with the Justice League, with the Green Lantern and Batman going in the opposite direction.

Martin, I don't speak the lingo but it looks as if it's saying that the Croatian striker Nikica Jelavic, under contract to Everton to 2016 is a target for BM.

Thanks Brent. So this is a none story like many others over the past few months and not really worth a mention

Except that, if you'd come across it and we hadn't mentioned it, there'd be trouble!

All part of our comprehensive service (sans la translation).

Just saying...

It says The Croatian striker born 1985 under contract with EFC until 2016 is a target of Borussia Moenchengladbach.

But so what?
