Anyone else hear the story of Farkes son playing for Paderborn today. He has his mums surname Engelens and the kid apparently had a good game against us. Louis Engelens no doubt some wag will have him in the January transfer window thread
Hi doc, great thread as always. Betis, they are skint as are most (all) spanish clubs. Their latest trick was in order to sign a south american player valued at €7m by his club was to pay the player €5.3m to buy himself out of his contract, then the parent club can avoid paying tax on the deal and betis give them 10% of any future sale. They travel to england tomorrow although their head of recruitment has gone today, whether to speak to mateo joseph I dont know.
Betis are the working mans club in seville, their neighbours sevilla are the posh lot. Massive rivalry between them. Their stadium is a typical oldschool 4 sided affair with capacity for 60000, I went once as working in sevilla, was a good atmosphere walkable from town and plenty cheap places to eat and drink. Unfortunately they closed it this year and are now building a modern spaceshipesque thing. So they will move to the olympic stadium for 2 years. Sevilla as a city is a great place, lots of history great food and probably the best eye candy I have ever seen! 1 hour from the atlantic coast, great weather although a bit hot in the summer, they usually kick off at 22-00 in august and september. I can understand a footballer wanting to go there, also they play europa league this year.
Looks like Mr paxo is a done deal and he fancies some Yorkshire puds instead of snails ....at least he can converse with a fellow Brazilian in Mr champagne perri ....aaaaaayyy caramba
We can offer Harrison part exchange, a few on the transfer thread seem to believe he is on the way to ER
Not sure how good this outlet is (Daily Mercator) but for the last 2 hours they are saying Marseille or Roma can’t match Leeds as they made an offer they couldn’t refuse and posted this picture
just checked their website and it’s the main headline as well as Fofana refusing to go to Everton https://www.dailymercato.com/
Says Marseille are going to go for Wallace Yan, who played 35 minutes in the club world cup for Flamenco and scored twice.
