drgoodspeak Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 Come on now.http://www.talkingbaws.com/2015/06/20/is-barcelona-legend-carles-puyol-really-about-to-come-out-of-retirement-to-join-derby-county/?Is Barcelona Legend Carles Puyol Really About To Come Out Of Retirement To Join Derby County?JUNE 20TH, 2015 DANIEL CAW FOOTBALL0 COMMENTSRumours were gathering pace on Saturday evening that Carles Puyol is set to sensationally come out of retirement – to play for Derby County.The former Spain and Barcelona skipper has been retired since 2014 due to ongoing issues with his knee, after winning the World Cup and Champions League during a trophy-laden career with the Catalan club.Despite turning 37 earlier this year, the formidable defender has been in the gym with a personal trainer since April in a bid to regain his fitness and make a comeback of some sorts.It was thought the curly-haired centre-back would opt for the sunny climates of Qatar to join former teammate and friend Xavi, or the big city lights of New York with David Villa and Raul.But there is now a suggestion in the Spanish tabloids that Puyol is considering having his swansong in the English Championship with Derby County. Daily newspaper AS reports that Puyol is an admirer of former Real Madrid and newly appointed Derby coach Paul Clement and has always wanted to play in England.Rumours have been fuelled by the fact that Puyol has turned down an offer from Joan Laporta to stand as Barcelona’s vice president in this summer’s club elections.Earlier today, Puyol and his stunning wife confirmed that they are expecting their second child together. So, if the surprising move to the East Midlands comes off, could we have Puyol jnr pulling on an England shirt one day? Watch this space! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
