Inter's Cruz to decide future soon
Soccer Betting Lines
07/02/2009 -
Milan, Italy (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Veteran Inter Milan striker Julio Cruz will
decide at the beginning of next week where he will play his football next
season.
The 34-year-old Argentinian is out of contract at the San Siro and is weighing
up a number of offers from around Europe.
His agent, Jorge Cysterpiller, told Pianetazzurro.it: "Julio still has no idea
where he will play next season.
"Fiorentina, Napoli, Atletico Madrid and Panathinaikos fascinate him strongly
in equal measure, each one for different reasons.
"Whoever writes that a deal with any one of these clubs is close to conclusion
tells a lie.
"I repeat. Julio Cruz will decide on Monday which club to tie himself to for
the next two years. I don't even know which team is the favorite at the moment.
I cannot and don't want to add anymore."

The 2009 AP NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year odds have been released and Denver Broncos' running back Knowshon Moreno has been made the opening favorite.
Bet NFL Sports Lines
Moreno was selected in the first round of April's NFL draft and is expected to carry the rushing load for the Broncos this season. And with Jay Cutler now in Chicago, Moreno might be expected to be Denver's entire offense.
Betting Lines from sports betting lines have made Moreno a 5/2 favorite to win this year's Offensive Rookie of the Year Award. Fellow running back Chris “Beanie” Wells (Arizona Cardinals) is right behind Moreno at 7/2, while Donald Brown (Indianapolis Colts) and receiver Michael Crabtree (San Francisco 49ers) are 5/1 to win. Quarterbacks Mark Sanchez (New York Jets) and Matthew Stafford (Detroit Lions) are 7/1 and 8/1, respectively.
A couple of players who present some value are Josh Freeman, Shonn Green and Darrius Heyward-Bey.
Freeman needs to beat out Byron Leftwich to become the starting quarterback of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers but if he does, he has a lot or raw talent and could use the weapons around him (i.e. Kellen Winslow Jr. and Antonio Bryant) to be very successful in his first season.
Green enters a crowded backfield in New York, but considering both Thomas Jones and Leon Washington are unhappy about their contract situations and might holdout, the former Iowa product could become the Jets' primary back.
Everyone was shocked when Al Davis took Heyward-Bey with the eighth overall pick in April's draft, but the kid has a tremendous amount of talent and if quarterback JaMarcus Russell takes the next step this year, the former Maryland product could blossom. Plus, Heyward-Bey will be looking to prove the people wrong who said Oakland should have taken Michael Crabtree with the No. 8 pick.
And if you're looking for a deep sleeper, check out Pat White at 30/1. He enters the Miami Dolphins vaunted “Wild Cat” offense and could be a big time playmaker.
