Transfer Rumour Thread

cant remember where i saw it yesterday but it said man u was going to offer Nani for Nasri

Now that would be more a realistic way of getting Nasri, because there is no way in hell he would be sold to us.

I think Nasri would be great at United, problem is I doubt if Fabregas goes they will let Nasri go too

Just breaking that De Gea is in Manchester to have his medical at United

Quote :

Atletico Madrid goalkeeper David De Gea is having a medical ahead of his proposed move to Manchester United.

The 20-year-old will replace Edwin van der Sar at Old Trafford and will cost a reported £18.9m.

If Fabregas goes then Nasri would surely see that as a lack of ambition, and ask to leave. With him being in his last year of his contract, Arsenal would be left with the prospect of losing him on a free.

I'm willing to bet that IF they were to sell Nasri, then they would rather take less money from a european team, than more money, but sell to United.

Good job here by United at sneaking him in

Arse

Its a swerve, there is someone else under the blanket......Can't think of any midget footballers really apar...t .....from .................. MESSI

Barcelona lodge new £35m bid for Arsenal captain Cesc Fàbregas

i'd take it

bolton be finishing 4th this year then haha


fuck me they would be sorted with that haul, the loss of cahill would be offset by bassong and hutton easilly i'd say, be like nothing had changed.

How many of those three would actually wanna play for Bolton though? plus I can't see Bolton being in a position to swap 1 player on a high wage, for 3 players on even higher ones.

Sky Sports News understands that Real Madrid could lodge a rival bid for Arsenal captain and long-term Barcelona target Cesc Fabregas.

The Spanish midfielder has been linked with a return to his homeland for some time, having progressed through the youth ranks at Barca before joining the Gunners at the start of his senior career.

A move back to Camp Nou had appeared the most likely scenario if Arsenal did decide to let the 24-year-old leave, but the two clubs have never been able to agree on a fee.

Reports surfaced last week that Barcelona had been in contact, but club president Sandro Rosell stated that he would not pay over the odds for Fabregas and actually valued the player as cheaper than 12 months ago.

Spain-based journalist Graham Hunter has now told Sky Sports News that Real Madrid have made an approach to Arsenal regarding Fabregas.

It is understood that Real value the player at €50million (£45m), which is far closer to Arsenal's asking price than Barcelona have reached.

Considering Fabregas' close links to Barca and the fact the two Spanish clubs are such fierce adversaries, it is unclear whether Real would be successful in luring the midfielder to the Santiago Bernabeu.

But he is a favourite of the board at Real and head coach Jose Mourinho, who wields substantial power over transfers, is also an admirer of Fabregas' qualities.

Madrid relied heavily on Xabi Alonso to influence matches in the centre of the field last season and view Fabregas as somebody who could make a big difference

Genuine bid or is Jose just trying to fuck barca's bid up?

i just think he's trying to up Barcas bid because if we've already said if we sell him we want some where between £45m-£50m so now Barca have to offer more than Real madrid to get him.

As an Arsenal fan would you just like to get shot of him now and start building a side for next year? If I were Wenger I'd bring in a player like Scotty Parker who will just work hard all day for you which in a flair team is what you need in the midfield

Quote :

Former Exeter captain Matt Taylor has joined League One rivals Charlton after his contract with the Grecians expired.

The 29-year-old made over 150 appearances after joining Exeter from Team Bath in 2007 and has signed a two-year deal with Chris Powell's side.

A statement from the Grecians said: "Everyone at the football club wishes Matt all the best at his new club and thanks him for four fantastic years."

Grecian is he a good player?

The Jermaine Defoe to Sunderland rumour is doing the rounds again today. Apparently he has been seen at the Sunderland Training ground this morning.

personally i would sell him i watched him in all our home games & he just played like he didn't want to be there. I agree we need a good strong midfielder & as a arsenal fan i think we've never replaced veira in our midfield & parker could be the midfielder we're missing.

Out of the 3 United players we've bid for they reckon John O'Shea is the one more keen on the move. I hope we get him and make him captain also!

Clichy has arrived for a medical at Manchester City

Goodbye the last of the invincibles

Not a missive loss for you IMO, but if the rumours of Nasri going there are true, then that would be even more stupid than selling him to United.
