    Biggest transfer news of the summer so far. Voronin has signed for Fortuna Düsseldorf. Voromania will be running wild once again in the Bundesliga!


    They signed Malezas from PAOK today too. I think that makes it TWENTY (20!) new players signed this summer for them. Hope they can stay up :).

    Edit: 18 new players and 2 loan returns.

    I think he would do great in the SPL or maybe the Championship. He is a solid squad man at Premiership level.

    6 years is a long contract. I know Pardew was impessed with his trial. Definitely long term thinking.

    Vila and Taiwo have one out on loan to Valencia/Dinamo. Taiwo gone with a view to a permanent.

    Vila's loan will become permanent if he plays x amount of games.

    Could be true, but goal.com has to be usually the least reliable of sources, they throw up any ol ****e.

    Dunno about Krasic (they been trying to offload for a long time!) but
    Paulo Freitas‏@Cynegeticus

    São Paulo's vice-president talked to 'Lance!', he said he isn't aware of an #Inter offer, But that a #MUFC offer wasn't good enough

    that was the latest on Lucas. Doesn't sound like any fee was agreed at all, it is an odd one, the exact same figure was reported to have been rejected and accepted, and now apparently not even offered all within 12 hours!

    Some Italian site reporting as breaking news that John Guidetti will join Sunderland for the year on loan for €2m with a permanent deal of €7.5m at the end of the season:

    http://www.calcioblog.it/post/38825/calciomercato-esclusiva-john-guidetti-il-nuovo-ibra-verso-sunderland

    Google Translate of the article. Got to laugh at the translation :pac:
    John Guidetti is at a crossroads: the much- talked-about Italian-Swedish striker , but owned by Manchester City, is about to make his decision. Considered ideally like the new Ibrahimovic (at his age but showed a less marked Zlatan look much better), will not continue in the Netherlands where he sparkled in the loan to Feyenoord. And it will not even Italy, if the suitor is called Lazio. Untrusted rather last minute items that give orbiting Naples .

    His fate is actually much simpler: Premier League to prove to Roberto Mancini could one day stand alongside of Aguero and Balotelli. The agreement signed with the technician's Jesi before all Sunderland now finally out in the open with an offer of 2 million loan for the dry and another 7.5 for redemption at the end of the season. Clause, this, unwelcome but unavoidable to Mancini to send to port a deal considered useful by both parties.

    In fact, this right of redemption remains under negotiation. The ask the Citizens at least 10 million, which means that it can be concluded to 8.5. The red and white, who took a similar position with the Danish Bentdner, know the rules of the transfer market and seem intent on blowing up the house for 1 million euros.

    Beware though traffic entering / leaving the City in its offensive department: a fifth man of quality, without huge claims, could also put in Guidetti odor confirmed. Solution that bookmakers today, they would pay on a straight moderately high. He, meanwhile, on his official Twitter profile, SuperGuidetti , prefers to speak of other things waiting to learn his fate.

    I'd be very happy with that.

    Supposedly Lille have closed the door on any deal for Debuchy. I'd like to think Graham Carr is somewhere in France holding a Lille representative up against the wall screaming, "HOW MUCH???!!!??"

    There were rumours of him going to Villa for 7m too afaik


  • Site Banned Posts: 26,456 ✭✭✭✭Nuri Sahin


    Cynegeticus on Twitter shouldn't be taken as gospel, got a fair bit wrong in the past.

    Also, Guidetti would be a fantastic signing, be it on loan or not.

    Mourinho says Sahin is free to leave.
    Maybe Wenger can get the best out of him?

    http://sports.yahoo.com/news/mourinho-sahin-free-leave-070600443--sow.html

    Mourinho concluded by saying that the decision of whether Sahin stays or goes lies with the player, and that he would have no problem coaching him if he stayed.

    “If he stays, he’s not a problem for me, he’s one more solution,” Mourinho said, before advising the young Turk to consider his heart and his happiness. “We leave [the situation] in his hands. Be happy. Decide what you want to decide, to be happy. If you decide to leave we are going to help you to leave. If you decide to stay, we are going to support you and try to succeed this season.”

    Didac Vila failed his medical at Valencia, gone back to Milan, needs surgery on his right thigh.

    This pleases me. Milan won't be able to sell him this window and he might end up getting a few games and prove he's worth keeping.

    Why would a billionaire buy a club and not put any money into it? Would he not be the laughing stock of the oil-barons if he couldn't even pay his staff? Or was it the ultimate troll move?


  • Registered Users Posts: 334 ✭✭djfitzerjnr


    Not sure if it's mentioned on here or not already, but Piennar is as good as an Everton player. Not included in the Spurs squad photo either.

    confirmed yesterday. ;)

    Here is my very, very vague knowledge of it:
    Apparently they bought the club in order to gain a favourable reputation in the area so as they could buy/take over some land/corporation/building (I did say it was vague :p). Once that deal was done then they had no interest in the club anymore and now have no intention of investing in it.

    I think it was amiable who wrote about it somewhere in the soccer forum.

    Ravel Morrison's year long loan to Birmingham City should be confirmed some time today. Really not sure on this transfer, he has talent but still has not fixed his attitude. Might benefit from getting more attention in a smaller squad. Do not like either that we would be developing a player for another club while potentially affecting the development of Redmond. Hopefully the move works out, but I have my doubts
