But for the moment it's only a rumour, so until somebody comes to me and tells me it's true I will take it as a rumour. I will be waiting for official news.[LNB]"I don't know how to take this information but if there is a proposal I will see if I go or what to do. [LNB]"Personally, to have the chance to play in Europe is a dream and it's makes me emotional to think that my name is known in England, but I will have to wait."[LNB]Calderon's former Toluca team-mate Pauldo Da Silva moved to Sunderland in the summer and he admits he would relish the chance to link-up with him again.[LNB]"It would be very nice to have the chance to play again with Paulo Da Silva so I hope that I have official news soon," he added.[LNB]
