Nery Packing?


After only eight games in a Fire uniform, it seems that Nery Castillo is packing his bag and heading back to Greece. Numerous rumors now have Castillo heading to Club Aris in the Hellespont. The rumors kicked off with Nery posting to his Facebook page that he and his brother (who acts as his agent) were working a deal in Greece for a transfer.
The Fire maintain that Nery is expected to show up at camp and make good on his contract, which runs through the 2011 season, but does have an opt-out clause at June.
The general buzz among Fire faithful posting on sites with this rumor is "good riddance!" Hopefully the Fire eject Nery and get a new DP - maybe Ibrahimavich!
