Transfer Update - Summer 2020

> Luis Figo gets an early exit from his PSG nightmare as Tottenham sign him for £15.25m (rising to £24m)
> Figo is joined at Tottenham by Ricardo Goyzueta who is fed up of being behind Lewie and Balotelli in the pecking order. Somehow Rafa manages to get £31.5m (rising to £41m) for him. Worth noting that Daniel Levy has left Spurs - explains the money
> Josep Branco continues his recovery from injury with a season-long loan to Rio Ave
> Jaap van Kraftschmeister is again loaned out - this time to NEC in Holland
> Hans Pedersen is off on loan again to AZ in H***and - he did reject an offer from Nacional de Madeira (not Holland :p )

Holland again? Surely after 3 unsuccesfull seasons, both Pedersen and Benfica knows that Pedersen doesn't play well in Holland!
 
Both Callum McCairns and Hans Pedersen are in the last year of their contract
 
Gutted that Biggun got injured in first match!

Probably the reason Holland did so badly :p
 
Oh yay so soon ill be out of contract and its not likely ill go anywhere good
 
Both Callum McCairns and Hans Pedersen are in the last year of their contract
If Pedersen join a club from Holland on a Bosman, I'd very much want him to retire! Sick of playing in Holland:mad:
