The Transfers/Transfer Rumours Thread

I hope he goes back to his old way now and spends more time on the injury table * him.

 

Swansea City is holding talks with Kaiserslautern striker Itay Shechter over a season-long loan at the Liberty Stadium.

 

We were close to signing him a few year ago, be good to see what he's like.

 

Tame next to some of the stuff i have read.

 

Signing for your clubs rivals isn't going to go down well :icon_mrgreen:.

 

Wenger looks impressed

 

You having a laugh when the * was the last time Arsenal got close to the title

 

Australia captain Lucas Neill is set to be unveiled by newly-promoted Qatari Stars League club Al Sailiya, according to sources in the Middle East.

 

You kidding? Rivalries transcend success. Your period of comparative dominance shouldn't fool you into thinking that United and Arsenal are anything other than massive rivals.

Probably an alien concept to plastic united fans.

 

The Lucas transfer is proof if it was needed that Manchester United can no longer compete in the transfer market.

I was never convinced that he'd sign for United.

 

Arsenal were rivals for a short period of time. Liverpool, Leeds and Manchester City will always be rivals.

 

Is it * take it City refusing to pay Hazards agent £6m means they can not compete either ?

Man Utd bids was confirmed by the club ,his agent the player -He went to Psg for one reason only the money simple.

Psg only bid due to the fact the player was already in talks with Man Utd - His mum and dad spoke to the press in Brazil about how they was happy he would be going to Utd as it looked on until Psg came in.

As i posted before was the same when it was Chelsea starting out and make statements - Robben was shown around the ground given his shirt with name and number deal agreed - Chelsea bigger offer to Psv ,player ,agent =Robben goes Chelsea.

Essien was the same ,John Obi Mikel exactly the same but we did get the compo on that one .

Nasri last season exact same -Player wanted Utd move had agreed -In come city more cash bigger agent fee player goes City

Hazard was the same this season it happens nothing to do with Man Utd can not compete in the transfer market.

Think back even more with the Ronaldinho deal .

Lucas would have been good at around say £25m £36 is just insane .


It comes down to player and agent .

If player wants the move he will push for like Kagawa did rare but it does happen.

 

Tarik Elyounoussi will be presented as a Rosenborg player tomorrow, apparently. He turned down Pescara last month.

Napoli want Raul Meireles

Wolves say they will not sell Fletcher until his valuation is met despite the striker handing in a transfer request.

West Brom are very hopeful of keeping defender Jonas Olsson at the club. The player is willing to sign a new deal.

Julio Cesar looking nailed on for Spurs ,Agent in London for talks could be a loan deal view to buying .

Wolves have rejected Liverpool's bid of £500,000 for goalkeeper Dorus de Vries, 31. Wolves want £1million.

 

Where's Llorente going HP? City/United? Or statying in Spain??

 

Meireles would be good for Napoli imo.

Llorente is also linked with Juve Paul

 

No idea club still trying to offer him a better deal .

Can not see him agreeing a new contract , so it will be like Rvp sold or allowed to walk on a free both i can not see happening clubs will not allow it to happen.

So can only see both being sold .

Juve missing out on Rvp means they are in the market for a striker he could maybe go to them but it would have to be at the right price .

 

True, we ended up seemingly willing to pay far too much for RVP tbh.

Any striker rumoured to be wanting to leave/possibly leaving if someone else comes in is now a Juve target right enough It's the one position we need desperately

 

That's exactly my point. United can no longer rely on the clubs history to lure players. They can't match the likes of City and Chelsea when it comes to wages.

It will continue as long as the Glazers are in charge.

Like I said before on this thread you'll hear the usual rhetoric from Fergie. No value in the market, inflated fees, we have people coming back from injury.

He should come out and admit that they are skint. That would do the anti Glazer protests the world of good.

 

Lucas Moura had agreed Manchester United deal, claims agent
The Sao Paulo forward has opted to join PSG after being persuaded by sporting director Leonardo but came close to signing for the Red Devils according to his representative

The 19-year-old attacker looked likely to move to Old Trafford until the French side's big-money move was confirmed on Wednesday, much to the amazement of United boss Sir Alex Ferguson.

And Lucas' representative Wagner Ribeiro has admitted that negotiations with the Premier League side had reached an advanced stage.

"Everything was agreed between Sao Paulo and Manchester United," Ribeiro told UOL.

"The contract had been written and just needed to be signed. But then Leonardo called me and asked to talk to Lucas.

"They talked. Leonardo was helped by the fact he is Brazilian. He was very gentle with Lucas.

"The possibility of living in Paris - a much more pleasant city than Manchester - also influenced his decision. But it was PSG's project that impressed Lucas."

Ribeiro also explained the lengths he had gone to in order to seal his client's move to the Parc des Princes club.

"I'm just a worker," he added. "I've not been able to sleep for five days here in Europe. I can't rest and I miss my son.

"I boarded a plane at 5am in Manchester and arrived in Paris this morning to finalise everything with Leonardo.

"But what gives me the taste of victory is that I know Lucas is happy.

Never came close tho aye ?

Sorry but you are chatting bollocks same thing happened pre glazer .

He went to Psg for the money end of.
