The possibility of living in Paris - a much more pleasant city than Manchester - also influenced his decision. But it was PSG's project that impressed Lucas."

Isn't that what happened with the Oilers and Michael Nylander? Minus the embarrassing announcement that he's already signed....same thing! Both contracts were signed waiting for a signature that never came through. Whatever. The fact that you label the agent sneaky...well he's an agent, and that's his job. Also, PSG with their current money are pretty well guaranteed titles, so it makes sense.
