This deal is likely to be similar to the one for Firmino. £24m rising to £29m with add-ons. But there could be work permit issues #Teixeira
Who is this chap, never heard of him... If it means spending nearly £30m on a potential flop, I'm all for it! #sarcasm
no you have to pretend cheslea have snatched him out form under ayres nose while we get goofy.... unitl we actually do sign him
the echo webstie says CONFIRMED.... bid for 24.5mil "Liverpool have tabled an offer of £24.5million for Shakhtar Donetsk's Brazilian attacker Alex Teixeira. Reds chief executive Ian Ayre missed Wednesday night's FA Cup replay win over Exeter City after flying to Florida to hold negotiations with the Ukrainian club. Shakhtar are currently at a winter training camp in the States and Teixeira was left out of the squad for their midweek friendly with Corinthians. Liverpool are willing to pay 32million euros to secure the signing of the 26-year-old. However, Shakhtar insist they value the player at around 50million euros (£38.5million). The Reds view Teixeira, who has netted 22 times in 15 league games this season, as the perfect solution to their goalscoring woes." What do we actually know. 1. http://shakhtar.com/en/news/37066 the match report does show he did not play 2. Nobody has sighted ayre at disneyland talking to goofy. we are therefore not sure he is in florida or that he is not at disneyland at splash mountain. 3. http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/spor...iverpool-fc-transfers-confirmed-reds-10766837 james pearce has video report on there.
So it's confirmed that we have made a bid, fine. Is it confirmed that we'll actually sign him? No. That's what I'm really interested in.
sure.... i get you. we will only know if the player turns up in the uk and then only b what airport he arrives at. For firmino we made some agreement prior to the medical so we will see...
Its all in the Lean.. Nothing to be believed until then... To be honest, our options up front are so bad right now I'd see if Titi Camera still has his boots!
lets also not forget our own.. Joao Teixteria I like Joao. He's a good footballer. Players need matches. I would like to work longer with him . But we have to see what he wants. "Tonight was good. A few things really impressive but they have a lot to learn. "(I will) work with them. We need to keep them here. I'm sure the way is shorter for them." I wonder if he will be offered a contract.
I think he's a tidy player and would like for him to stay - the problem is, we have Coutinho and Firmino in the same position.
The best thing about this potential deal is that it came from nowhere. Much like the team leaks, looks like we're doing better at keeping things behind closed doors.
If we get him for that much money then bet your life Chelsea will be back in for him... Can see this being another Willian....
