Barcelona's Eto'o rejects massive Man City contract offer

Barcelona striker Samuel Eto'o has rejected a bumper contract offer from Manchester City.

The People says Eto'o has rejected Manchester City's cash, leaving Chelsea, Liverpool and Inter Milan to fight it out for his services. City were ready to offer Eto'o £160,000 a week to match top earner Robinho but the money wasn't enough to convince the Barcelona star to give up Champions League football.

The Cameroon striker, who would cost around £22m, is likely to end up with Jose Mourinho at Inter but the lure of the Premier League could see him move to Chelsea or Liverpool.
