Soccer Betting Lines

06/29/2010 - Manchester, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Manchester City is set to complete the signing of Ivory Coast midfielder Yaya Toure from Barcelona.

The 27-year-old, who can also play in defense, has been on World Cup duty with his country in recent times, but is now set to put the finishing touches on a switch to Eastlands, as soon as Barca's new president, Sandro Rosell, takes office.

A statement on Barcelona's official website read: "Director general Joan Oliver has recognized an understanding between the club interested in the midfielder, Manchester City, and Barca, but the transfer cannot be made official yet."

Toure's agent, Dimitri Seluk, added in Spanish newspaper Sport: "I think we will have a solution this week.

"In fact, I would say that it will be done on the first or second of July - maybe on the second because the first will be a very busy day at Barca with the change of president."

Terrell Owens could return for Cowboys next game
A bye week will allow Terrell Owens broken hand to recover just in time for the next game the Dallas Cowboys are slated to play, according to reports. MySportsbook.com, an football sportsbook, has posted football betting lines on TO playing.

Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger Sunday night and had a plate surgically attached to it Monday. Although Owens' hand was swollen and aching Wednesday, Dallas Cowboys coach Bill Parcells said he's optimistic the receiver will be back at work next week and catching passes a week from Sunday against the Tennessee Titans.

MySportsbook.com online sportsbook listed Terrell Owens with odds of 7-2 (or $7 paid out for every $2 bet) to return back for the game against Tennessee.

"I certainly wouldn't rule it out now," Parcells said, referring to Terrell Owens immediate return. "Maybe five days from now I might, but I wouldn't rule it out now. ... I know we're looking to try to get him moving around pretty good in the next day or so. So we'll see where we are."

Owens did not speak with reporters Wednesday, but said Sunday he'd be out two to four weeks. A return against the Titans would be 13 days after the surgery. The Cowboys were listed as an early -7 1/2 favorite vs. the Tennessee Titans for Week 4 at MySportsbook.com
