    Default Nwankwo Kanu?

    Just a speculation.
    My dad is a Real estate agent and he went to a model home today. He met an agent for Nwankwo Kanu. They talked for a bit and he mentioned that he is trying to get Kanu over to Toronto. Kanu currently is with Portsmouth. Now I don't know much about this guy, not sure how good he is but its just something to work with I guess. His agent made an offer to one of the houses on my street so hopefully there will be more updates to come.

    Well Kanu has done well for himself so how big is the house? If it's real big then maybe you're onto something.

    Striker Kanu is set to sign a new one-year contract with Portsmouth, with manager Harry Redknapp saying: "As far as I know he's going to sign for another year and I want to keep him here." (1403 BST, Various)
    That's from bbc's gossip section

    I read that too, but he hasn't done that yet and his agent says otherwise.

    That would be a serious score for us! Not sure how injury prone he is but at 31 its certainly a solid move for TFC for years to come.

    We couldn't get a CCC calibre player in Huckerby to come to Toronto....what are the chances that we would be able to get an EPL calibre international starter? Lets just sign Dickov first then we'd think about Kanu and players of his quality.

    EDIT: In addition, didn't he already sign a new contract with Pompey? I remember hearing last year during the FA Cup final that there was mutual interest in terms of a contract extension.

    There's not a pussy hair's chance that this is true.
    But Kanu would be the best forward in the MLS. Bar none.

    There is a big difference between the money Huck was offered and giving Kanu the DP cash.

    We'd have to offer him some ridiculous DP money to get him to leave a comfortable situation in England. Fact of the matter is that if we couldn't lure an injury prone Championship player looking to retire to Toronto, there is no chance in hell that we would be able to lure an EPL regular away from the best league in the world. Even if Pompey doesn't want him (which I don't think is the case) he would easily garner interest from atleast half the teams in Prem (especially the newly promoted ones like West Brom who have been searching madly for strikers).
