Nottingham Forest are set to complete the signing of former Everton striker Apostolos Vellios. Everton are lining up a £20m bid for Manchester United midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin.
Champions League football and easy league to build your career in. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ WOY could be heading off to China. Reports suggesting a job in noodleland awaits him. Good stuff.
They had a £5m bid accepted in January, but it fell through when Spurs wouldn't loan him back for the rest of the season.
Norwich City are leading Sheffield Wednesday in the race to sign former Sunderland striker Steven Fletcher.
Strange move that one. He could easily have got a move to the PL. Celtic wages are probably at best on a par with the Championship.
Their highest paid player is Scott Brown and he's on £25,000 a week. Presumably they offered Dembele more than that.
I saw somewhere yesterday, that they were only paying £250k compensation, which seems ridulously low (and Scottish teams don't need to pay compensation).
Seems more ridiculous when Fulham could have sold him to Spurs for £5m in January. Barring a couple of Champions League games until Celtic get knocked out it's like a sideways move with a big club in an incredibly poor league.
Nottingham Forest have completed the signing of striker Apostolos Vellios from Iraklis Thessaloniki. He had a decent season last season, but wasn't up to much when he was at Everton.
As far as I remember it was your Steve Walsh that first brought him to the KC when Nigel was with us.
