"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,"

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.
