The boss of the Main radio station in Toulouse is reporting that we have signed Capoute £10mill plus add ons. What a signing that would be
This would be brilliant if true Dave, we really are trying in the transfer market fair do's, nice to see such a signal of intent
Beat me to it DJR. Let's hope this is true. It's all twitter, I know, but there are some pretty decent sources being banded about as confirming this is done!
@rodriguezvince 2h Transfert # football ligue 1. L'international toulousain Capoue signe à Cardiff. Transfert 10 millions + 2 Anybody able to translate ?
Something like "Toulouse's international player Capoue has signed for Cardiff for 10 million euros (+ 2 mill add-ons I presume).
As long as he was only kidding about the translation and not the subject matter, I go with that......
Le président du Toulouse FC, Olivier Sadran, le confirme ce jeudi dans nos colonnes : le promu en Premier League Cardiff City a transmis une offre de 12 millions d'euros (dont 2 de bonus) pour son milieu de terrain Etienne Capoue (25 ans, sous contrat jusqu'en 2015).
Cheers Sparkey, Thought it was something like that. It's all over Twitter now........... looking good.
According to Bing translator it says, The FC Toulouse president Olivier Sadran confirmed Thursday in our columns: promoted in Premier League Cardiff City sent an offer of 12 million euros (including 2 bonus) for his midfielder Etienne Capua (age 25, under contract until 2015).
Sweetblue - I think that quote just confirms the offer we made to Toulouse last Thursday. Whether they've accepted it and Capoue has agreed terms is another matter. That what seems to be the latest news coming out.
It's the only thing i could find out there that isn't twitter sparkey. Not a word on any other boards and usually they are on the ball with news coming out. Hope it isn't revamping the player for other clubs to take note and he is indeed on his way to us.
Comme nous vous l’avions indiqué jeudi, le TFC a accepté une offre de 10 millions d’euros plus 2 de bonus de Cardiff pour son milieu de terrain Etienne Capoue (25 ans). Restait donc à convaincre le joueur, qui espérait une destination plus huppée, de négocier avec les dirigeants gallois. C’est chose faite puisque son agent Mino Raiola a entamé des discussions avec le club de Premier League. Le contrat, dont les modalités n’ont pas filtré, semble offrir au Toulousain des conditions salariales avantageuses. http://www.lequipe.fr/Football/Actualites/Capoue-d-accord-avec-cardiff/388462
As had noted you Thursday, the TFC has accepted an offer of 10 million euros plus 2 bonus of Cardiff for his midfielder Etienne Capua (25 years). Therefore remains to convince the player, who had hoped a more exclusive destination, to negotiate with the Welsh leaders. It is thing made since his agent Mino Raiola has initiated discussions with the Premier League club. The contract, whose terms were not filtered, seems to offer the toulousain's advantageous salary conditions.
