January Transfer Rumours

Why would Newcastle do that? Remy sucks donkey balls this year.

I doubt it's true anyhow RG. Marseille are in serious financial difficulty so they can't afford Ba's wage demands... and they already have Gignac and Jordan Ayew as CFs. The don't want anything to do with Ba for a lot of reasons.

Sky Sports understands that Italian giants Juventus have made checks on Celtic star Gary Hooper.

Who ?

Edit:That dude who scored against Barca ?

Pastore sure of Milan future

Paris Saint-Germain’s Javier Pastore has surprisingly stated that he one day expects to play for Italian giants Milan.

While he recently rejected January links with both Milan sides, the Argentine has left the doors wide open for a Diavolo switch at some point in the future.

“Sooner or later I will play in the Rossoneri shirt,” he told Italian magazine Chi in an interview. “I’m sure of that.

“I have a splendid rapport with Vice-President Adriano Galliani and director general Ariedo Braida. I often dine with them, away from prying eyes, when I’m in Milan.

“I miss Italy and I love your country, while Milan are magic. First I want to win with PSG, but after that I will wear the Milan shirt.”

The creative midfielder, who left Palermo in August 2011 for Paris Saint-Germain at a cost of €43m, has had his form problems in the French capital this season.

Well that's a pretty stupid thing to say.

Paulinho-Pato swap for Milan?

There are new reports suggesting Milan could sell Alexandre Pato to Corinthians in exchange for midfielder Paulinho.

It was already claimed that Vice-President Adriano Galliani is flying out to Brazil to listen to offers for Pato and Robinho.

According to the latest rumours emerging from San Siro, the Rossoneri are hoping to coax Corinthians into releasing Paulinho as part of the €15m Pato deal.

It would be a coup for Milan, as Paulinho has long been a transfer target for rivals Inter.

Fresh from winning the Club World Cup, the 24-year-old is also linked with Chelsea.

..

If Milan get Paulinho

Man this guy is quality..I was so impressed with his performance against Chelsea..Would be a fantastic addition for them rest assured.

Llorente:

"This player makes our team more competitive and his future will be decided by the club," said Bilbao president Josu Urrutia.

"At the moment we need to maintain the quality level within our squad, not reduce it.

"Llorente will stay with us until the end of the season."

Juve set for David Villa loan?


Juventus are reportedly in talks with Barcelona to take David Villa on loan for six months in January.

The Bianconeri are looking for a ‘top player’ to strengthen their front line and have been linked with numerous options, including Didier Drogba, Athletic Bilbao outcast Fernando Llorente and even Celtic’s Gary Hooper.

According to Sky Sport Italia this evening, talks have begun with Barcelona to sign Villa on a six-month loan deal.

It is claimed the Catalans would be prepared to release the World Cup winner and even pay a portion of his wages.

Villa just turned 31 and has not found his form since returning from eight months out with a fractured tibia.

He made his comeback in August, but has barely featured for Barça, so a loan to Juventus would give him an opportunity to play more regularly.

However, the problem with the transfer is that Villa would not be available to play in the Champions League.

Pastore just dropped a bomb on PSG... pretty much made sure that every french person completely hates him lol. He is going to become the Tevez of PSG. No way they will sell him cheaply or loan him. He will be subject to the 75% tax. So it's not even going to be that great financially starting in January.

Expect him to be benched and benched hard as soon as Lucas Moura gets to Paris. He killed his career in Paris today. He will be booed mercilessly.

Good thing he's mostly sucked so he won't be missed.

Just a couple of days ago, Madrid based paper AS suggested David Villa would sign for Liverpool next summer.

Today, AS bring two new Premier League suitors for David Villa to the table: north London rivals Arsenal and Tottenham.

Huntelaar set for a new deal

Ranieri is saying that Bekham is close to joining Monaco... i don't think this is about the money

There has been some rumours today that pretty much all the Premier League’s big boys have been alerted to the brilliant talents of Feyenoord defender Stefan De Vrij, and a massive battle will be on to acquire his services this coming January.

The Dutch international has continued to impress with the Rotterdam giants, and now they look ready to cash in on one of their prized assets.

Liverpool are set to push ahead with a move, but they will face intense competition from elsewhere in the Premier League.

Sky Sports understands that Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea and Newcastle United have all been alerted to De Vrij’s progress this term and are ready to compete.

It is believed Feyenoord would be looking for around €10million (£8million) for De Vrij, who has 18 months left on his deal at De Kuip. (Sky Sports)

The reports about De Vrij have been going around for almost a month now.

Remy has confirmed he is being considered by Newcastle. Thing is, Marseille don't want Ba. They just have to pay the 13-14 mil it will cost.

Seems like Pato is gone

Rory Smith ‏@RorySmithTimes
As I suspect most newspapers will be reporting tomorrow, #LFC should announce Sturridge+Ince in the first couple of days of Jan. Deals done.

Rory Smith ‏@RorySmithTimes
Think Sturridge/Ince will be £18m or so the pair. Decent signings, but is this what all the fuss about the new scouting team was about?




As it's well known, I'm not a fan of twitter reports/rumours. That said, Rory Smith tends to be one of the more reliable reports on LFC dealings so this is worth sharing. The £18m seems to be the figure before taking into account LFC's sell-on clause (30-35%) in Ince's contract, so 2+m of it will simply be LFC paying itself.

pato to corinthians almost official,Milan has taken him off their official webiste just like back in the TS-Ibra move

This tom ince is good? He Has impressive goal numbers for a winger in Championship.

According to Fichajes.net, Barcelona coach Tito Vilanova has asked his executives to make an attempt for Manchester Unuted 24 year old forwardJavier "Chicaarito" Hernandez.

Hernandez or Walcott, which one is a worse sounding move?

Barca could really use a guy like Hernandez. Messi's boots won't clean themselves yanno

Good point. But I think thats Mascherano's job now.

He sure as hell aint in the squad for his ability as a footballer.

He's about on Sterling's level, I would say. He would probably have made the breakthrough into the first team this season had he stayed at Anfield rather than turning down the contract offer and moving to the Championship. They'll likely be on about the same wages as well (assuming Sterling signs a new deal with LFC).

Barcelona get anywhere near Walcott or Hernandez and I'm personally going to Barcelona and making sure Tito never has the luxury of wearing a black polo shirt during a match ever again.

Totally stole that style earlier this year though

Maybe Song and Cesc want their old room mate back?
