Told #NCFC going all out for Celtic Hooper this summer. Given they put in multiple bids in Jan & failed, surely City will now get their man

Hardly "news" - we're all aware of our courting of Hooper in January and I guess he remains our number one striking target to partner Ricky.
 
kebe wouldn't be a bad squad addition, but he's probably not going to improve the starting 11 is he. also he seems to have a poor injury record.
 
Can I clear something up, guys.
Is this thread NCFC specific or is any juicy transfer news/gossip permissible?

I'm happy to have both, or would people rather have a separate thread, so we've one dedicated to Norwich discussion and one for general transfer chat?

As long as you keep up the good work updating the OP with the Norwich rumours I'm not fussed.
 
I leave it to you - or a show of hands, DH, but things appear to be hotting up with talk of Isco joining Citeh, Suarez to Real Madrid - will he, won't he.

And now this:

A couple of links suggested on a Vital Norwich article I spotted on newsnow that I had not heard of:

1. Adam Maher
2. Nacer Chadli

I don't really know anything about either of these guys - does anyone? They look pretty good though!

The article also links us to Ivan Ramis, which I think would be a great signing, although I imagine we'd have to pay through the nose for him and he is a bit injury prone.
 
I can give a quick summary from transfermarkt:

Maher- 19 year old CAM, who's been an ever present for AZ Alkmaar this season in the Eredivisie, season stats: 47 games, 11 goals, 13 assists. Valued at £5.7m so I doubt he'd be cheap. Ajax and Man City have previously been linked.

Chadli- 23 year old, tall left winger/striker. 10 goals, 5 assists in 22 Eredivisie games for FC Twente, and has also recently made the Belgian National Side. Valued at £7.5m. Seems a little injury prone.

Both sound like very interesting players!
 
Both could be possibilities as they've come up on the Pink'Un messageboard. Maher has been highly rated by a knowledgeable Dutch contributor over there. Similar to Van Ginkel, but even better he says!
