Niko Kranjcar is whining about Sp*rs pricing him out of a move away from the club.

Seems like a pretty cheap deal all things considered. Mind you, five years ago we were scoffing at similar figures for Theo Walcott...

They're going to have to choose between Honda and Aguero, there isn't room, nor can they afford both.

Well...they are asking a stupid fee for him, tbh.

Not sure where all supposed this money is coming from, they've already laid out 30m bringing in guys they had on loan last season.

Although, they're only talking E10m for Honda.

They need a striker IMO. Bringing in Pirlo means that a midfielder can wait. Spending big on Aguero is ok, but it will leave their bank account pretty empty.

Sky Sports:
Breaking News: Manchester United have confirmed the signing of goalkeeper David de Gea on a five-year contract from Atletico Madrid.

Every time I read that I get more and more sad.

Di Matteo is new assistant manager at Chelsea

:lol: Rob Hulse has turned down a move to Milwall because he wants to prove himself at QPR and earn a spot in the 25 man squad.

He'll get his chance again in 12 months time...

Frank Rijkaard set to become the new Saudi Arabia manager.

Sunderland have announced the signing of Conor Wickham

http://www.safc.com/news/20110629/black-cats-snap-up-wickham_2256213_2383586

That'll do nicely for starters.

Maybe Craig Gardner later today as well.

Good deal for Sunderland but surely only a season or two as a stepping stone for Wickham?

He'd be a great signing for you lot.

Just on Wickham, I'm assuming Ipswich will want some sell on clause in the deal, could be a nice money spinner for them in the future

Man City apparently close to signing Alessio Cerci.

If ever there was a case of life imitating FM this is it. What the fuck is Mancini thinking :lol:

Actually, I signed Raul Garcia the season Atletico Madrid did :lol:

I have no idea what Mancini is thinking there, I mean...Cerci didn't even play half Fiorentina's games last season...he must just be trying to put together a collection of Europe's worst mullets or something.

Thiago has signed a 2 year contract extension at Barcelona

The Mirror is reporting that Blackpool have signed former Man U player Bojan Djordjic on a free transfer from Videoton, paving the way for Adam to join Liverpool.

They signed Djordjic weeks ago.

There's 5mil worth of add ons.

I think he'll stay as long as Sunderland are challenging in the top half of the table and he's playing regularly.

There's rumours around that Wickham has a clause in his contract that says he can leave for 13 mill if we don't qualify for Europe in any season he's at the club. Wouldn't concern me greatly, so long as we get good service from him and we don't make a loss I'll be happy.

As for how long he'll be at SAFC - I have no illusions - if he is as good as some are saying I'd expect him to be gone in 2-3 years. Again, so long as he plays well when he's with us I'll be happy.

And they threw in a E90m buy-out clause as well.

Toronto FC have signed Torsten Frings and Danny Koevermans

Great move for Toronto picking up Frings.

Neymar is said to have chosen to join Real Madrid ahead of Chelsea and Barcelona but Santos president Luis Alvaro de Oliveira Ribeiro remains hopeful of retaining the player until 2012.

Fuck, Frings is a good signing for Toronto

Shit's going to get ugly with Ronaldo and Neymar's egos in the one team. Can't wait for the shit to hit the fan...

This really is a lol worthy comment from the Santos president"It's obvious given all the interest that the release clause is small in comparison to the player's true value."

Really? A release clause of 45m for a 19 year old with 64 first team games and 5 internationals is small in comparison to his true value. Seriously that is just hilarious.

Good, don't want him or need him

Only if there's something lost in translation in comparative values.
