Could Kevin Doyle be about to join Robbie Keane in the MLS? Nigel French/EMPICS Sport

Bleedin' Rapids - Could Kevin Doyle be off to Colorado and the MLS?

The Ireland striker is mulling over a move to the MLS.

IRELAND STRIKER KEVIN Doyle could be on the move again after reports this morning liking him with a move to the MLS.

With the player’s loan deal with Crystal Palace not renewed this January and Kenny Jackett keeping Doyle out of his Wolves squad, reports this morning indicate that MLS club Colorado Rapids have offered him a three-year contract.

With Doyle reportedly earning £40,000 a week with his current club, any transfer is likely to involve a hefty pay cut.

However, Andy O’Brien, Caleb Folan and, of course, Robbie Keane have all enjoyed successful spells in the MLS so it’s a move that could well suit Doyle at this stage of his career.

The only thing better than Zlatan is two Zlatans

    All he’d have to do is add Roddy jr and it would be the dream team

    Controversial but Torres has yet to let Spain down. Two man of the match performances in European Championship finals and a world cup to boot.

    He wasnt exactly in rude form ahead of 2012 either.

    In fact when Germany went to South Africa they brought Klose and Podolski with them and they had 3 league goals between them.

    Germany went on to be the highest scoring team in the tournament and Klose missed out on breaking an all time record over a cold.

    Some National teams have their men and they trust them regardless of form.

    It’s a pity but it might be something to do with you not being selected – have a go anyway.

    Spare a thought for Diego Lopez, playing 18 months straight in the league for Real Madrid and not making the plane.

    These lads even have class goalkeepers!
