NEVER trust an africans passport.

Roger Milla was supposedly about 50 when he played in the world cup.
Martins is probably older than 21.

Its like the page 3 birds in the paper, they always say they are 17 or 18 and there usually about 26, it just makes them sound even better if there just out of school

Apparently not, remember that player for Tottenham last year, the left back called Atouba? He claimed to be 21,lol, he was actually 31!

Apparently it’s the same with Martins, he is a lot older than he has claimed, same thing happened with that youngster called Cherno Samba, it is not uncommon for people from Africa and Asia to alter their date of birth on there passports and birth certificates.

I think the conclusion so far has been that he is just like Cisse. And we definately don't need another Cisse.

I think you can stop patting yourself on the back now.

Have seen him in action and quite frankly I think he's over-rated...... I agree with C.H.Luke...
abundance of pace and not much else..... I'd rather take Cisse over him any day and I've already posted that I don't really rate Cisse....

His attitude really suc.ks........ hope we don't get him........

That Tony Yeboah who played for Leeds was another one. Claimed to be early 20's but was really 30-odd. You have to laugh :laugh:

have to disagree, seen martins play a few times and has really impressed! very quick but no the only part of his game therefore better than cisse. he actually looks around 21/22). He has stated his desire to come to england before but i think it was to chelsea?!?! really could be a player of the future, possibly the new Eto'o. Would def rather him than Bent, Defoe or Bellamy, maybe not rather than Dirk Kuuyt!

Internazionale have offered Spanish side Valencia the chance to sign Nigerian international Obafemi Martins in the summer.

The Nerazzurri had claimed the 21-year-old was not for sale but may use the striker to try and bring Valencia's Stefano Fiore, who spent last season on loan in Serie A with Fiorentina, back to Italy.

Inter are thought be looking for a fee of around €15 million (£10.2 million) plus the Italian international for Martins, which may rule the Spanish outfit out.

However, Martins has been a target for Valencia since last summer and was again see as a possible recruit during this pre-season and the chance to sign their long-term target may be too good to pass up.

Valencia's new sporting director Amedeo Carboni and Inter official Gabriele Oriali will meet to discuss the proposal in the coming days with negotiations set to continue for some time yet.

Inter's willingness to sell one of their prize assets may also rekindle the interest from a number of other clubs who were warned off the striker.

English trio Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United have all been strongly linked with Martins in the past and may be happy to match Inter's valuation of the player.

anyone wanna buy him?
