Fredy Guarin #13

Manchester Uniter consider Guarin bid

Manchester United are reportedly considering a €20 million bid for Inter midfielder Fredy Guarin.

The Colombian is reportedly on the market as the Nerazzurri look to raise funds to strengthen their squad elsewhere.

According to the Guardian, the Premier League side are keen to add to their midfield and have targeted the 27-year-old.

It is thought they will look to tempt Inter with a €20m offer, with Barcelona and PSG also said to be monitoring his situation in Italy.

Guarin had made 15 appearances for the Nerazzurri in Serie A this season, scoring three goals.

Guarin's agent in London for talks with English clubs

There are reports Inter directors and Fredy Guarin’s agent were in London for talks with Manchester United and Tottenham.

The Colombian has long been a transfer target for Spurs, as he is familiar with his old manager Andre Villas Boas from their Treble-winning campaign together at Porto in 2011.

Now Manchester United are stepping up their attempts to sign the 27-year-old attacking midfielder during the January transfer window.

According to Calcionews24, Inter directors Marco Branca, Piero Ausilio and Guarin’s agent Marcelo Ferreyra were in London today for a meeting with both Manchester United and Tottenham emissaries.

Guarin could be sacrificed to raise funds for the Nerazzurri’s January targets Radja Nainggolan of Cagliari, Southampton striker Dani Osvaldo and Paris Saint-German forward Ezequiel Lavezzi.

He is particularly prized by the Premier League duo because Guarin is available to play in Europe, as Inter did not take part in the Champions or Europa League this season.

Guarin joined Inter from Porto in May 2012 when his loan spell became permanent at a cost of £9m.

The Italian clubs is hoping for at least £15m to sell him on to an English side.

New meeting between clubs over Guarin transfer

Inter and Chelsea officials have set up a new meeting next week to negotiate the transfer of Nerazzurri midfielder Fredy Guarin.

Inter sporting director Marco Branca was sent to London with the instructions to open negotiations between the two clubs over a possible transfer that would see the Colombian move to Stamford Bridge.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Inter’s asking price of €18 million is around €4 million more than the fee Chelsea are offering, which is thought to be between €14 and €15 million.

Another meeting has been scheduled for next week to try and narrow the gap between the asking price and the offer.

The newspaper claims Manchester United have also expressed their interest in joining the race to sign the former Porto midfielder.

Guarin has played 15 times for the Nerazzurri this season compiling three goals and three assists.

Agreement reached between Chelsea and Inter

Bye bye Guarin. It seems almost certain (nothing official yet) that Fredy Guarin is going to be playing in the Premier League in January. According to the Gazzetta dello Sport and also Tuttosport, Inter and Chelsea have come to an agreement to send the Colombian to the Blues next month for a transfer fee of 18 million euros. The initial offer from Chelsea was 15 million while Inter’s request has been 20 and it seems both parties have come to a common ground in the middle at 18 for the transfer of Guarin.

Guarin actually has a great pass if there's a coach who can make him do it

He's really been coming through for us lately.Decisive player...

Seems to be finding some consistency that he's been lacking all career.

15 million pounds check is ready for Guarin

Chelsea are pushing and really want Fredy Guarin. According to the Daily Mail, a check of 15 million pounds is ready. Last summer, the English club had bought many forwards but the problem remains in the midfield where Mikel and Essien continue to have physical problems.

Guarin’s departure is imminent

In the UK, they believe that Fredy Guarin is destined to leave Inter in January and his departure is imminent. Chelsea are the club who have the greatest interest in the player but so far, as wildly reported, no concrete offer has been presented to the Inter management to decide. January is just one day old and so we will have to wait for a couple more weeks to understand more.

Mourinho: “Guarin? Anything is open”

Jose Mourinho after the match won against Southampton also mentioned the expectations when it comes to the transfer market of Chelsea. Fredy Guarin seems very close to go to the Blues but the Special One believes that not much will be done in this January transfer month.

“The transfer market is open and when it is open, anything can happen. However, I do not think a lot will happen. We would surely react to certain situations and if someone leaves, we will bring some new players but we will do everything with confidence.”

Negotiations between Inter and Chelsea for Fredy Guarin remain open. However, as reported today by the Telegraph, the Nerazzurri are waiting for an offer of 18 million pounds (21.7 million euros) after saying no to the initial proposal of 13 million pounds (15.7 million euros). Both clubs are pretty much in constant contact and this thing could still happen.

Fredy Guarin remains in the sights of Chelsea even if the offer hasn’t arrived yet. Here is the latest on the negotiations according to Sky transfer market expert Gianluca Di Marzio.

“Head on the field. With an eye to the future. Fredy Guarin and Inter are waiting. The Nerazzurri are expecting the arrival of Chelsea’s official offer that can put an end to this saga. At most, it will be next week as Inter will not go beyond next Monday or Tuesday.”

Close contact in December and then nothing. Chelsea asked for information by inviting Inter to London but now it seems that the Blues are no longer active to make the Nerazzurri an official offer. Negotiations are not alive.

According to Sport Mediaset journalist Marco Barzaghi, the reason may be what the player is asking in his contract. Guarin wants a three-year deal at four million a season.

Ernesto Bronzetti, FIFA agent and an intermediary who is very close to Real Madrid, reveals that recently Inter offered Fredy Guarin to Real Madrid.

“A transfer market signal from Thohir? The signal that I have is that Guarin was offered to Real Madrid but Ancelotti is not interested in the player. I also read today that Inter are in contact with Morata and Jese but I would say to Mr. Thohir that these two players are untouchables.”
