Newcastle United have agreed a £12m fee with Swansea City to sign England midfielder Jonjo Shelvey.

The 23-year-old will have a medical at St James' Park before a deal is completed on Tuesday between the Premier League relegation rivals.

Jonjo is only 23? Wow.

Liverpool have signed Steven Caulker on loan, that'll sort their defence out

He is an emergency loan. Klopp doesn't want to spend big this window. Caulker is coming in as the 5th choice CB and it is unlikely he will get higher than 4th on the depth chart. Not sure what other better guys would agree to that. I think they could have done a lot worse.

 

[Luigi Habs]

Man City may have to make a move for a defender. Kompany will miss a big portion of what's remaining of the season.

Nikos Karelis joins Genk from Panathinaikos for 3.000.000.
Lucas Evangelista set to join Panathinaikos on loan.

Inter had a bid rejected for Brozovic and want 25m, Arsenal reportedly bid 15m

Was Belhanda going to Schalke mentioned last week? Wonder if he's just there to replace Sam as the disgruntled and apathetic talent on the bench or if he's actual going to give a ****?

Rumors in Italy of a 40m euro offer for AC Milan's 16 yr old goalie from Man Utd.

They have De Gea

40m for a 16yrs old, espcially a goalie, is insanity!

 

[Jussi]

Not for long

A 16 year old means he wouldn't be competing for first team spots at least for 4-5 years, which means DDG's job is safe and he wouldn't be going anywhere.

No he would be competing. He starts now for Milan.

An Italian goalie named Gianluigi? Might as well take a shot.

This is what I mean by EPL having money but terrible scouting. Manu want to buy a 16 year old prospect for 40 million and expect to win trophies with him?

They're better off buying Scuffet.

Its not terrible scouting. His age doesn't really matter, he's doing a good job for AC Milan. Scuffet is not close to as good as Donnarumma.

 

[bluesfan94]

Calling him a mere prospect ignores the fact that he's displaced a good keeper at AC Milan already

Lol Of course his age matters when your spending that much $$. You're either buying him with more of an eye on the future(in terms of winning trophies) or you plan on starting right away which will result in a mixed bag.

Calling him a mere prospect ignored the fact that he's displaced a good keeper at AC Milan already

He's played what 10 games for a mid table club in the Serie A you want him to play for a team that has (supposedly) league titles and CL?

 

[TheMoreYouKnow]

I don't know if goalkeeper is important enough a position to spend that much money on a prodigy. It's not like he'd have the sort of impact a young Messi would have had on your team.

 

[Raymones]

I never understood why Pato left Europe. Always seemed to do everything well. Those AC Milan teams with him Robinho/Ibra were fun to watch. Reports say that he's pretty much done being an impact guy, but it's so tempting to take that chance anyway.

Maybe Berlusconi "made him an offer he couldn't refuse". After all, Pato was dating his daughter for a while, wasn't he? If that man tells you to leave the continent, you're on the next plane..simple as that

 

[Deficient Mode]

ManU should go after Perin instead of a 16 year old.

Maybe Berlusconi "made him an offer he couldn't refuse". After all, Pato was dating his daughter for a while, wasn't he? If that man tells you to leave the continent, you're on the next plane..simple as that

Personally I wouldn't have gotten involved with Berlusconi to begin with.

No, he's scary as hell! As I said, telling that man "no" is not an option..he makes sure he gets it his way.

 

[Ceremony]

Something tells me a 16 year old playing for the team he supports isn't going to be eager to move country.

Nor can I imagine 40 million for a sixteen year old happening, regardless of how many games he's playing or established players he's supplanting in the process.

 

[yoplait]

I would have thought it to be ludicrous as well. However, when I remembered they spent a potential 60m pounds on a forward with 11 career goals, I started to think that 40m euros (i expect this to also comprise of a big bonus) isn't out of the realm of possibility for Donnarumma.
