Rather than creating 500+ threads over the summer whenever player A gets linked to club B, Please post all transfers official/rumours in here and we can all discuss

---------- Post added at 04:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:49 PM ----------

Might aswell start with this one

http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11661_5367941,00.html

Hull City have confirmed that they have had a bid accepted for Manchester United youngster Fraizer Campbell.

Basically i feel that 6m is way over the top. They did this last year aswell. Just shows that there is far too much money in the game.

Hull seem to have money?

6 Million for Campbell
5 Million for Bullard

Possibility of being a top 10 finish in a couple of seasons?
 
Yh 6m is a awful lot of money for a team like hull, But i think when campbell had a really good spell with hull in the championship who played a big part in hull promotion is the reason they want him so bad.

I think he might moved imo tho.

6million is a big risk seein as he might turn out to be a flop
(but then again you run that risk with all players lol)
 
Yup 6m for an unproven youngster is a bit steep.

Valencia --> Man Utd/Madrid

Every top player --> Madrid

Edin Dzeko and Cristian Zapata --> Arsenal (hopefully)

Johnson --> Chelsea
 
Sergio Aguero admits cheslea interests..oh lord! hopefully that move doesnt happen..

Vermaelen to Arsenal :)

Sounds good except Adams is complaining about him being too small :/

Tony Adams said:
Adams fears that the Frenchman's top target lacks the height required to dominate in the Premier League and believes he has been playing at an inferior level.
Adams told the Daily Mirror: "Thomas is a very good player but I don't think he's ready for the Arsenal.
"I don't think the punters at Arsenal would like another small one.
"I have been looking at the Dutch league, but it's been decimated. It's a poor league at the moment, there's one or two players, but they're leaving too early as well."

Yh,

Hes pretty small he probs a little bit taller than fabregas so for a defender thats pretty small we need to buy antoher to aswell as toure or gallas might be going:(
 
Yeah it also said that Man City may be making a move for Toure :|

And Gallas has been linked with clubs for a while tbh i wouldnt be too concerned to see the back of him.

Get rid of Eboue aswell.
 
I hope we sign Ruud van Nistelrooy and Matthew Spiranovic. Both quality players, though RvN's age may be a potential problem? Adam Johnson has potential to be a fantastic player but i'm sure a big team will take him from us as soon as that happens.
 
why would Ruud go to Fulham (no offence)
 
oba martins agent has said he wants to stay at Newcastle for the remainder of his contract which is for another two years
 
I doubt they'd even want him. He didn't do them any favours last season and he's got a huge wage. Get rid of him.
 
buonannote rumoured to head benfica, so as Shaffer, who is pratically ours

Alvaro Pereira, from Cluj, i think, was linked to benfica until freakin porto approached and jah well... playing in champions and in a current champion always counts.

Roma interested in Owen, Aguero turned down the option of Real, but kinda pushed himself to barça, as he said he hopes messi takes him there.

Bruno Alves linked to Inter, milan, barça, etc, as Cissokho and Lisandro lopez are linked to lyon
 
****. looks like i've lost a bet. kaka gone to madrid. to be honest i'm quite happy. i hate madrid but i like watching spanish football and now i'll be able to see kaka play more as i couldn't watch seria a.

i hope the galactico's blows up in their face like it did last time
