Summer Transfer Rumours Mk. XI

Canal+, who spoke to HBA, say that Cabaye is gone postal towards Newcastle. He refuses to play pure and simple. Is this true Mole?

Roma reach agreement with Ljajic, according to Corriere dello Sport.

So which midfielder is on his way out, unless we are going to play with a single striker? No idea what Roma is doing right now, but would be another quality signing. I guess this is the replacement for Pjanic.

Would be the bargain of the Century for any top club, that "American" discount  

Giaccherini and Bradley in a midfield pairing would be ridiculous.

but giaccherini is a winger....

Giaccherini can play as a CM also.

The bid for Bradley is around €7m, according to ESPN. Roma want around €10m.

Does every Roma player have an asking price?

It will not be a good start for Garcia if he tries to make too many changes at a time.

I don't think Garcia has anything to do with personnel moves tbh.

Yeah I know the owners are looking to make profits as quick as they can but Garcia can oppose some of the moves, can't he? Too many personnel changes are never good especially given the peculiar system Garcia implements.

Valencia tell Arsenal they want €20m for Guaita, according to Superdeporte. That is €10m less than his release clause.

Good for Sunderland, at least they are showing ambition even if they don't get him.

Which can't be said for our joke of a board.

No love for Dempsey, Howard or Guzan

I wouldn't completely disagree, I think in terms of true "international class" talent we only have a few players that meet that bill (still more than capable as a team unit).

In terms of open field players Bradley, Altidore, and Besler would be the only players I would give the potential of becoming world class (of the current regulars in our national team side).

Bradley for 10 million is a steal.

Also, I don't want anyone to bring up that discussion again, but Bradley is NOT a DM...

Rudi Garcia: "I would have liked to keep all the players the we have sold. But sometimes, the economic interest of the club outweigh the football ones."

Basically, he's been screwed by management lol.

Sporting Lisbon have told Diego Capel he can leave, according to A Bola. They want €7m for him. Marseille, Malaga and Liverpool are interested.

Sunderland's bid rejected.

Schalke will make an offer for Basel winger Stocker, according to Bild.

Well, they considered offering 5 mio Euros some days ago, but it will probably not be enough to make Basel consider letting Vale go.

loool. Tomwin u know me! :p. we always heat it up in here.

Roma are looking to make profits here...We got Marcos for like 3m and sold him for 35m, Lamela for 20 and sold him for 35 and now Bradley for 4 and rate him at 10. All about surplus and profit. What we'll do with said money beyond buying better players is anyone's guess.

I personally don't want to see him go obviously, but then again, I didn't want to see 'Hos and Coco go either, as did any other Romanisti. Pallotta's made it clear though that he'll be running this club like a business first before he runs it like an actual football club.

Arsenal, Tottenham and Manchester City also interested in Sakho, according to Sky Sports.

I still have no idea why anyone hasn't go in for Julian Draxler.

I'd hate to see what he would cost if Willian is going for £32m.

€45 million is his release clause, that's how much he would cost.

he wanted to stay at schalke to grow as a player

Meanwhile:

Chelsea have agreed a deal to sign Samuel Eto’o as part of the negotiations to acquire Willian for £30 million from Anzhi Makhachkala which will end their attempts to buy Wayne Rooney this summer.

Eto'o

Spoiler:

Damn kinda wanted Rooney to go to Chelsea, would give them the edge but if eto'o can still play to barca level then pray for the prem cbs

I have to admit I've only seen one or two clips of him since he's moved to Anzhi. I'm of the impression that he's still very clinical and still has quite some pace. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Yeah he does.... i wouldn't worry about his Anzhi spell, they were so shit against us he was practically doing a Rooney and became a CM
