18:02 January, 30, 2006
Joey Barton is ready to hand in a transfer request at Manchester City Football Club.
The highly-rated midfielder is thought to be disappointed with terms of a new contract being offered by the Blues, who have been locked in talks over new deal with the player since last week.
It is now being reported that the 23-year-old is willing to spark a transfer scramble amongst a number of Premiership clubs by handing in a transfer request at Eastlands.
This will come as a huge blow to manager Stuart Pearce, who is determined to build a squad capable of challenging at the right end of the table.
Can Barton be anymore of a twat? After City kept faith with him following the 'cigar to eyeball' incident with a youth team goalkeeper and his mullering of a young Everton fan during their pre-season tour, he goes and does this on the eve of the final day of the transfer window. All this after Pearce inspires him to some of his finest form to date. Money grabbing wanker of the highest order.
