It appears that now Simao Sabrosa, Hugo Almeida, and Manuel Fernandes will now be joining fellow Portuguese player Quaresma at Turkish club Besiktas. Manuel Fernandes doesn’t suprise me because I am pretty sure Valencia have been shopping him around for awhile. However, Hugo Almeida was a bit of a shock because other than him Werder Bremen is a bit thin on attacking options, but then again he has definitely not been at the top of his game this year. Simao is 0621-Portugal-World-Cup_full_600a big surprise in my eyes because this is arguably his best year so far at Atletico. Simao has 4 goals and 5 assists so far, but I guess Atletico, which already has a very senior lineup, is trying to go younger. "
