Newcastle are the bookies’ favourites to win the Championship but relegated clubs have a very poor record of bouncing straight back – Simon Hopper analyses the best ante-post bets ahead of the new season.

Samuel Eto’o has completed his move to Inter from Barcelona and is looking forward to starting a new chapter in his career.

The Cameroon international moves to the San Siro as part of the deal which sees Zlatan Ibrahimovic move in the opposite direction.

Eto’o was deemed surplus to requirements in Spain, despite helping Pep Guardiola’s side to the treble last season.

“I made history at Barcelona, but that history is finished now,” he said.

“A new story begins at Inter, I’m starting from scratch, I want a new adventure and I hope everything goes well. I can’t but wish Ibrahimovic good luck. I have won a lot at Barcelona and now I hope to do the same with these colours, if not, more.

“I promise the fans that I will work every day, as I have always done. This is at the base of everything.

“I believe in my work and the group, I don’t have to say that what I want to do is score even more goals, I know I’m capable of scoring goals and I know that through my work I will score even more.”

A statement on the Inter’s official website read: “Everyone at FC Internazionale and all the fans warmly welcome Samuel Eto’o to the club, and are proud to have him in the team, convinced that new and important triumphs will be reached together.”
