Summer Transfer Rumours Mk.VII

from what I've read today the buy back clause only activates if Cesc wants to go back to Arsenal. No clue on the validity of that, but I've seen it mentioned by a few journo's

Can't see him going to OT either but you never know, didn't think RVP would

Don't they have the same agent?

Yeah... i think it's if Barca were to accept Man U's offer, then Arsenal have the chance to match it.  Barca is under no obligation to sell, however.

What the heck would Arsenal do with Cesc anyhow. AM is not the issue. If anyone says "false 9", i will curse them out...

No they don't have the same footballing agent, but they do share the same person(darren dein) for some other financial things.

The ball is in Cesc's court. If he wants to leave ( which he should since the fans hate him) then there is only one club that will interest him. IMO he is coming back to Arsenal.

We'll see though.

Why should Cesc leave when there is no competition any more in Barcelona?

Forget that, Barca selling both Thiago and cesc at same window?

peeps plzz

Can't see this deal happening, Barca have already sold Thiago. Selling Cesc Fabregas would limit their option in midfield in case of injury or suspension.

Re Cesc

The bid was apparently made 8 weeks ago.

Manchester United make a £25m offer for Barcelona and former Arsenal midfielder Cesc Fabregas.

Yeah, well, they could throw in a bid for Messi while they are it...

As for small clubs not wanting to pay enough money for bigger clubs player's, well, you can always start your assault on that 4th place trophy with the mighty combination of Giroud-Sanogo, right? Personally, with the situation as it is, meaning Arsenal can't really get a better striker than Higuain, I'd start with 50 mil and then negotiate to a solid 40-45. Besides, it's the WC year, would Pipita really risk a falling out (along with his great status with RM fans) - we could easily bench him for a season.

50 Mil for Higuain ??, Madrid fans are nuts. 50 Mil for that guy that scores tap ins against Albacete and Granada https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_lol.gif

Higuain price requested by Real Madrid is 40m €, not 30m €, according to Sky Italy. Napoli have contacted the player, but no development

LMAO 40m

Forget him. Might as well bid 40m for Suarez

From what I've read, if Barcelona agree to sell Cesc then there's a clause that says they must offer him to us for a set price of £25mil.

If Barcelona sell Cesc to anywhere else, then we get 50% of anything above £25mil.

All this is probably irrelevant, though, as I doubt Barcelona will be accepting any bids now that Thiago has moved on.

Yp, and you might as well bid 40 mil for Cesc while you are at it. Hell, put in a 58 mil bid for Neymar

As I said, have fun watching Sanogo next season. When Giroud injures himself in pre-season, and then heals up, you'll have that new striker signing!

Anyway, I said start at 50 and then go back to 40-45. How much will it cost you NOT to make the CL qualification trophy place next season? Arsenal fans...

wat

Why would we bid 40m for Cesc?

Sanogo was bought as our 4th choice who would play in the cup games or even in the U21 league.

No one in their right mind will bid 50m for Higuain. And no one sane enough will pay 40-45m either. Get of your high horse son.

Arsenal: Hey Madrid, here's 50mil for Higuain.
Madrid: Cool, we'll accept that.
Arsenal: Actually, how does 40mil sound?

Yup, can see that going well.

Anyway, Cesar not as close to Napoli as originally thought:

http://gossip.ladyarse.com/arsenal/2013/07/15/cesar-agent-confirms-arsenal-interest-no-napoli-deal-done-yet/

Tbh, Higuain is worth between 30-35. If i'm non-biased, that's what i'd value him at. 40 is shooting for the moon. I think Napoli would pay the 30 no problem. Now Madrid may want to wait it out to get more money.

Given that all the CFs are getting scooped up, it's very reasonable to foresee a situation where 2-3 clubs are bidding it out to get Higuain at the end.

Mario Gomez looking more and more like the bargain of the summer as this window goes on, Fiorentina

and yeah, when you start asking that kind of money for Higuain I'd start looking at Suarez instead, no wonder the Arsenal interest seems to have cooled down

Di Marzio confirms that Napoli have inquired about Higuain....

Yep, Rafa said he wants a top striker. Higuain is the only one on the market.

I doubt Napoli will get Higuain since they are already buying Damiao.Its going to be a done deal very soon

i hope somehow we get fabregas simply so RG can feel my Thiago pain  

Ganso wrote:I doubt Napoli will get Higuain since they are already buying Damiao.Its going to be a done deal very soon

Ganso, I find great interest in this ongoing deal between Napoli & Damiao. From what I have heard, Napoli will pay maximum 22m for the Brazilian yet Internacioal value him at 25. I have understood the deal is in crossroads and has ceased, thus cooling reports on Damiao to Napoli, eventually to be abandoned since Napoli haven't struck through negotiations or will not be afforded the price.

So, how close is the deal; what is the chance of it being done? and when?

I ask you since you are an Internacional fan and have concise ideas on the Brazilian media reports as your updates would be appreciated. Thanks.

Man, if I were an Inter fan and some club seriously offered 22M Euros for Damiao I would personally offer to drive him to the airport. That is a great deal for Inter.

Napoli and Internacional are having a meeting right now,Interncainal are believed to have accepted lowering the price and according to Di Marzio everything is going positive

PSG have called a press conference for tomorrow at 16:00

Latest on Negredo:

However, it now looks as though Negredo will spend at least another season at Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan after Del Nido admitted that City had failed to match their valuation of the player, believed to be at around €23 million.

"We are far from reaching a deal with City," the 56-year-old told reporters.

"Right now they are further away than where we were at [in negotiations] with Atletico Madrid. There have been advances, but we are still far from a deal.

"Sevilla have valued the player at a certain amount and that will vary depending on if it's a fixed sum or with variables. Either they pay what we ask, or the player stays with Sevilla for another three years.

"The chance that he goes right now is one per cent. In the last 15 days I have lowered the price by €0, I'm very generous.

"The substitute for Negredo is Negredo. For me the best thing is that he renews his deal for another two years and raises his clause."
