I understand there was a contract for sale in place subject to the medical, so the Reds could not have pulled out at this late stage unless Remy failed the medical.
I suspect the American doctors' tests are more thorough and complete than what is done in continental Europe and UK when dealing in such matters?

Excerpts:
"I don’t see how he has failed a medical. It doesn’t make sense," said the 67-year-old.
"He had a stringent medical here, one at Marseille, one at Newcastle and one with France before the World Cup.
"He’s never had a problem with his fitness. You could not meet a fitter lad. There can’t be any issue with his fitness.
"I can’t see a medical reason. There must be other reasons. That (failing a medical) is not possible. There has to be another reason.
"He has never failed a medical before. He’s never had a problem and didn’t miss a game at Newcastle (where he was on loan last season).
"They must have changed their mind or decided to go in another direction."
