Summer Transfer Rumours Mk.II

Skrtel:

told Slovakian newspaper Dennik Sport: "I have not had any specific offers. But if some should come and they interest me, I would probably ponder it seriously."

But Skrtel is not in a rush to leave and respects his contract with Liverpool, who he joined in a £6million deal from Zenit St Petersburg.

Asked what percentage chance there was he would stay at Liverpool, the 28-year-old said: "I do not want to be that specific.

"The club has the biggest say in this in any case, because they have the right for it with me being contracted.

"Besides, I am not saying that I want to leave at any cost. I feel sorry for what happened in this season. But I have been here for five-and-a-half years and I have built a position here."

Sky Sports understands Liverpool are leading the race to sign Porto winger Christian Atsu.

Sky Sports revealed earlier this week an unnamed Premier League club had tabled a bid for Atsu and it is understood that Liverpool are the team in question.

Talks are thought to be continuing between the Reds and Porto as Brendan Rodgers' side look to win the race for the Ghana international.

However, Liverpool could face competition from Premier League rivals Everton and Arsenal for the highly-rated attacker.

Everton are thought be interested in Atsu especially if current Porto boss Vitor Pereira replaces David Moyes at Goodison Park, while Arsenal are also keeping tabs on the African's situation.

Atsu has found himself out of favour at Porto in recent months after refusing to sign a new deal at Estadio do Dragao.

The 21-year-old, who sees his current contract expire next summer, has continually rejected offers to extend his deal due to Porto's insistence to try and increase his release clause to €30m (£24million).

Atsu, who has previously expressed his desire to play in England, is expected to make a decision on his future once he plays for Ghana in their upcoming games against Kenya, Sudan and Lesotho next month.

He'd cost a shed more than that. He still has another 5 years on his contract.

Atleti interested in Damiao, Negredo and Suarez.

Negredo seems the most realistic. How much would Damiao go for? El confidencial say 30m but i doubt it lol

We'd sell him for 20M.He is leaving this summer,we are already looking for a substitute for him so yea

Damiao is a Mendes client, no?

Aguero extends his contract until 2017. Better wages.

Vincent Kompany ‏@VincentKompany 24s
Speculations and questions about next season.. I'm not going anywhere. I love playing for City and I've still got some unfinished business.

Ajax interested in FC Twente's Nacer Chadli, according to director of football Overmars:

"We are interested in Nacer Chadli, yes", Overmars told Dutch daily De Telegraaf.

"He fits in well with out style of play."

It seems that Neymar has now snubbed Madrid and is set to sign for Barca for €28 Million!!

28 million for 55% that Santos owns. They have to pay 22 mil for the remaining 45% to 3rd parties... total of 50 mil.

It's not a snub when Madrid were trying to hijack a deal at the last second. Madrid haven't expected to get him for over a year lol.

That's still a bargain. And even if they didn't expect him, he still declined Madrids higher offer.

Atletico Madrid interested in Rakitic is they don't sign Diego.

Arsene Wenger confirmed that Lewandowski already signed for Bayern Munich on french tv. Also says that Pep Guardiola has been given a transfer budget of €400million for this summer!

They are good friends. Probably had a chat before the game

hmm

dude,i already said a million times,its 28M for everyone to share,Santos are getting like 13M ish

ganso... that's not what's being reported out here. it's too much of a coincidence that 55% of 50 mil is 28 and everyone in Europe is saying that it's 50 mil total when all parties are paid off... and i mean every single show i've watched is saying total of 50 mil.

i'll wait to see the official figure before saying who's right or wrong.

Why would he say that if they were good friends? lol

Now every team they try to negotiate with is going to hardball with them as they have $$$. If this is true,

If thats true, They should just give that 400 million to charity lol. They have their current goat team + Gotze and Lewa. I can't really even think of anything they really would need..

€400m, lol Wenger is trolling

all arsenal targets slipping through their fingers

I doubt Arsenal are interested in Aubameyang, or atleast I hope so.

AC Milan are looking at recalling Corinthians strikers Alexandre Pato following Giampaolo Pazzini’s recent injury.

The Italian will require knee surgery that will keep him out of action for up to six months.

Corriere dello Sport claims Milan will address this loss by approaching their former player Alexandre Pato.

The Brazilian returned to his homeland only five months ago and Silvio Berlusconi had made it clear his departure was a only temporal.

Pato still has strong ties with Milan, particularly his relationship with Barbara Berlusconi.

Both Alessandro Matri and Marco Borriello have also been linked with return moves to the San Siro club.

Tottenham are looking to acquire the services of Juventus striker Mirko Vucinic.

This is not the first time Vucinic has attracted attention from English clubs, with Manchester United also having expressed interest in the past.

According to TuttoJuve.com, Tottenham is ready to advance an offer for the Montenegrin striker.

The possible arrival of Franco Baldini as technical director of Tottenham could restart the negotiations. Baldini, the current director of Roma, thinks highly of the striker.

Reports from England suggest an offer of €15-16 million could be made to Juventus and a 4-year contract to Vucinic.

Wenger on Lyon's Clement Grenier:

"We are following him," Wenger said on Telefoot.

"I like the intelligence of his play. He has interesting qualities. He reminds me of Nasri."
