Transfer Rumours transfer thread fact and fiction

Kelechi Iheanacho's agent has said that there's no chance of his client being sold to Spurs, as Citeh won't sell to a rival.

Mr Levy, now tell them we want Jesus, Sane and this Nacho's bloke for Walker and some Nando's vouchers and a box of caramac or Pink Panther bars.

 

City say they won't sell to a rival, apparently without a hint of irony considering the amount of stories they've planted in the press about rivals selling to them.

 

Well that has well and truly effed up any attempts this
summer by Citeh to buy Spurs players, hasn't it.

 

The other day there was a headline saying that Arsenal were willing to let Sanchez's contract run out if it meant keeping hold of him for another season.

Go on, Levy, you know you want to sanction that move!

 

Unless by some weird chance they didn't plant them

 

On the subject of things that are planted, here is the resident vegetable...

 

For WUM value, yes. But Sanchez will be nearly 30 by then.

 

Hello res

 

I like the kid, if Walker is indeed their main target then I really hope Levy makes it abundantly clear someone like Nacho has to be part of the deal.

We don't need the dough but we need a solid back up to Kane. They can provide that if they're desperate for Kyle.

 

If Citeh are really serious about Walker, Levy will run riot whatever
kind of deal they wish to make. Two consecutive seasons below
Spurs, three wihout winning the PL. What can they guarantee a player
other than Sugga Daddy wages ??

 

One of Guardiola's comfy-looking turtlenecks?

 

That may just be a swinger

 

No, it won't be.

< must try harder >

 

OK

I guess they will just have to keep feeding stories to the press

 

Le Journal du Dimanche are reporting that Marseilles are willing to pay £25m for Sissoko this summer, news which was greeted by Levy texting Poch that he would have an extra £19m available in transfer funds.

Sadly I could not get much more than this - not because of Google Translate mutilating another language, but when I checked on L'Equipe's website to see if they were reporting on it I got distracted by the prominent photos of Alexis Ren in the sidebar...

 

Defoe in talks with Bournemouth. Wonder if Bournemouth are expecting to sell a striker?
Defoe would offer us something different up front but would be a sub and I am not sure how effective he is coming off the bench or if he is willing to be a substitute most weeks.
Think he would do okfor Bournemouth.

 

Good, they might sell us King.

 

Plus add ons and sell ons, come on HBIC, Levy will be negotiating.

 

As well as ****etry tax, which they have to pay double the rate due to the Batshuayi/N'Koudou chicanery last summer.

 

Would Walker really be committing himself to these events if on the way out??
