"I know that I said on my first day that I did not count on him, but I also said that I would treat him like any other player,"

"His behavior and attitude in Scotland and the United States have made me decide that he will remain with us. As well as that, he is a player with immense talent".

Eto'o was one of three high profile player's linked with a move including Ronaldinho who recently signed for AC Milan and Deco who is now at Chelsea after Guardiola's arrival at the Nou Camp.
