Manchester City set for Feyenoord winger

After a windfall from the Shaun Wright-Phillips sale, Manchester City look to be signing 22 year old Dutch international Romeo Castelen.

A natural right winger, Castelen, is similar in size and agility to Wright-Phillips. He made only 30 appearances for Feyenoord in his first season there; Regardless, impressive Dutch national coach Marco van Basten has given Castelen 7 caps.

This is exactly the kind of player that could replace Shaun Wright-Phillips and begin to reduce the City debts. Debt can kill a club off as fast as constant losing.

If the rumored deal for 4 million pounds turns out to be confirmed I’d say City should be quite happy. I’ve seen him play a few times and he’s impressed me at international and club level. Castelen is well worth the money and the chance.
