Winter Transfer Rumors and Discussion Part II

[Evilo]

Apparently, OM offered 23M€ for Payet and was rejected. They will offer 30M€ now.
No way West Ham agrees IMO.

I think Nani was less inconsistent as compared to just dumb on the pitch.

Nani might have been really dumb, but no one compares to amount of stupidity I had the pleasure of watching in Gervinho. Even if he decided to quit football and become a sprinter, I would have concerns he would have gotten lost on the track. Which sucks because I really liked him.

Apparently, OM offered 23M€ for Payet and was rejected. They will offer 30M€ now.

How much does West Ham want for him? Seems like a perfect match for Wenger considering what Arsene likes in player's strengths. Though I highly doubt he comes to Arsenal even if he fills a positional weakness IMO.

Seems like they won't sell him in January out of principle. The figure is irrelevant at the moment, but the figure I've seen quoted from their perspective (in the summer) is £30million.

Newcastle rumored to want to bring Townsend back from Crystal Palace.

 

[John Pedro]

Dutch users, is that newspaper reliable at all?

I'm freaking out, 20M is way too low fee for him. He's better than Lucas Moura, who was sold for 43M. Why do they bring up the fact that he wears #14?

Supposedly he's been garbage out in China as well. Too much unhealthy food and dodging NFL style rugby tackles.

 

[John Pedro]

Seems like Alexander Isak gonna transfer to Real Madrid. Not sure if it's the best movie for his career as RM already have a great young striker in Sergio Diaz who's got world class potential + all the money in the world.

 

[Vipers31]

Seemed to be a matter of time for a while - Süle and Rudy to Bayern now confirmed for the summer window. €20M-ish for Süle, Rudy's on a free.

 

[Jersey Fresh]

Zaza to Valencia is official, by the way.

Later!

From bad to worse for Valencia...guy is horrible where ever he goes. Worse than Borini.

 

[Evilo]

Monaco has signed Fabinho to an extension, and is negociating with Lemar, Bakayoko and Germain.

Feels good to see them build a team rather than buy and sell.

Chinese team has apparently made a huge offer for Falcao however.

Chinese teams have tried to buy almost everyone at this point.

Selling Falcao wouldn't be the worst thing as they could probably aim for a guy like Moussa Dembele as replacement.

 

[Evilo]

Maybe, but this would send the wrong message. As Falcao proved tonight, he is not at his previous level, but is really starting to reach a very good level, enough to score some big goals.

Doubt it will go through. Ajax is very healthy right now, but they've never spent as much on a single player. They could certainly use him, though. El Ghazi is gone, Traore isn't exaxtly setting the world on fire and Cerny is injured. That leaves a very talented, but still only 17 year old Justin Kluivert, as shown today va Zwolle.

They mentioned his number as it's the same number fellow AM/RW Johan Cruijff used to wear. Nothing more..

 

[Evilo]

Wow, not only has OM bought Morgan Sanson (which as I said, is a tremendous move), but apparently, they managed to lowball Montpellier with an 11M€ offer
Eleven M is such a low figure I have trouble believing it. And PSG and Monaco will regret it (as well as Lyon and Lille).

As will Dortmund.

Few days ago I was reading they will offer around 15M. I was surprised when you suggested 20M. Great bargain if true.

OM will meet again tomorrow with Westham to discuss Payet. I don't feel he's a priority though. I think it's just to make a statement. Priority for OM should be LB and fwd.

 

[Evilo]

Frankly, Montpellier president asking for 20M€ and settling for 11M€ seems out of character.
And ridiculously low for his talents.

 

[La Cosa Nostra]

Dybala allegedly about to sign a new deal. Adding a year to his deal until 2021 and getting huge pay increase. Also read of a release clause of €200 mil (never would happen)

Great news. Don't see him going anywhere for a few years.

 

[Jussi]

Selling Falcao wouldn't be the worst thing as they could probably aim for a guy like Moussa Dembele as replacement.

But which one????!!!!

 

[Jeffrey]

But which one????!!!!

The Celtic one

 

[Havre]

The Chinese will overpay as usual. So even if Falcao has been quite good for Monaco that sounds like a good deal. He isn't getting any younger.

I see... though I doubt he will wear the same number going forward. He used to wear #11 in the youth squad, but that number was already taken in the senior squad.

Hope it's just a rumor, still too young to leave.

 

[Vipers31]

Robben's expiring contract extended for one more season. Surely deserved, and a good way to approach things with the short term deal.
