Summer Transfer Rumours Mk.VI

Of course he wont say no but both sides have to agree first. Otherwise he would have to force a move out of the club which is something I don't see happening..

Roma contact Christian Eriksen, according to Sky Italia. If Pjanic leaves, then he'll be the replacement.

Le Parisien is saying that PSG will talk to Jorge Valdano about the opening left by Leonardo. Beckham is a possibility too...

Rumour is that Real Madrid completed the signing of Illarra. 32mil + VAT, so in total 38mil euros.

We're clearly trying to avoid another Xabi Alonso. Only reason we would have payed so much otherwise.

Taken Jedvaj and close Strootman, Roma does not stop. Now the goal is Gervinho, Ivorian playmaker Arsenal. The Giallorossi have made a first offer, refused, from 2.5000000 to 3,000,000 euro. The English club asks 8,000,000, and Rome in the next few hours it is ready to relaunch with a new offering that can approach, even with the bonus, at the request of Arsenal.

Madrid triggers the transfer clause for Illaramendi.  Total cost of 30 (the clause) + 6 (taxes) = 36 mil.  Illaramendi signs a 5 year deal with Madrid.

good job flo, a prime example to why you're superior to rosell

36m? wow

Actually 38.9 mil... that earlier figure was wrong

De Telegraaf report that Ajax have accepted £6.9m bid from Norwich for Toby Alderweireld

Cristiano Ronaldo met with Monaco owner Dmitry Rybolovlev, according to Le 10 Sport.


Manchester City contacted Ibrahimovic's agent, according to L'Equipe.

Sevilla interested in that scrub Gameiro

Tin Jedvaj to Roma done

Tom Ince has rejected a transfer to Cardiff City

Gallardo is a joke, I like Punto Pelota but he is one of the unreliable guys in the show

These are key hours for Marquinhos’ future. The defender, who yesterday left training due to a fever, will however leave for the team’s training camp at Riscone di Brunico. Initially it seemed the fever would make him unavailable to depart. Yesterday Sabatini flew to France to discuss a potential transfer to Paris St-Germain. Barcelona also continues to show interest in the defender.

Damiao very close to Napoli.Could be a done deal by next week.20-25M

Why the hell would he do that  

LFC get a 35% compensation on the sale.

Is Inter really holding out for 25M Euros for Damiao? If they can get it, more power to them, but there is no way in hell he's worth anything close to that.

It's a great time to be a mediocre forward.

most european top clubs are absolute idiots in terms of valuating players.just today Illara got sold for 40M

Damiao could well be the new Keirrison

40M

Joke

I was just remembering how Chelsea paid 20M for Oscar, who wasnt even a top player in our league.We are making amazing buiness, 20M for Oscar and 25M for Damiao in 1 year..Inter

And when has Madrid ever cared about overspending?

Even Isco went for less than Illara, because Malaga were willing to negotiate. La real weren't. Uncle flo wanted him so he got him.

We actually claim it's 32 mil.

In any case, we paid the release clause which is an obligatory clause in all La Liga contracts. I sort of like it, because it means a players has absolute maximum value set. Otherwise you get stuff like Carrol and Bent going for 5 times their normal value. Also, valuation of players is quite subjective, you know. Have you ever heard Perez's "the most expensive players are the cheapest players" speech?

P.S.: We all know we got robbed, but we always do, can't imagine anybody really cares about it, though.
