Liverpool back in for Doni http://www.tuttomercatoweb.com/?action=read&id=278399 So we pay them whatever they want (I thought it was £1m) and then Roma are paying the player £1.5m severance... How much was he on and how much of his contract did he have left and why on earth are we still chasing a 31 year old sub goalie who looks likea complete merc?
Rumour is that we have made an initial enquiry to the French club Caen regarding M'Baye Niang. He is a 16 year-old striker who scored 3 goals in 7 games to help Caen finish 15th in Ligue 1. His goals were crucial in saving Caen from relegation and is very highly regarded player. He has also been very heavily linked with Spurs in the past couple of days but no bid has been put in for the player.

My cat's name is mittens! Other than that, I can't get anyway excited by a prospect we might get to see in two years time at the very earliest.
For a back up GK it's either a inexperienced youngster or a 'merc'. No goalkeepers of quality in their mid 20s will want to join a club just to have a couple of apps a season, if that. At 31 he's still got a few years left in him, he's got CL experience and he won't be complaining too much about warming the bench. No club in the PL bar Man City have an excellent back up. Many are just good enough to shoe in for a match or two.

From the BBC website today. Liverpool will offer midfielder Alberto Aquilani as bait to tempt Tottenham into selling winger Aaron Lennon. The Reds have also renewed their interest in Newcastle United left-back Jose Enrique after failing to capture Gael Clichy from Arsenal, with the Frenchman opting for Manchester City.
Aston Villa and Fulham both now keen on David Ngog according to French media as his move to Sunderland looks to have faltered. Could he be used as a pawn in the Stewart Downing deal?
I think nobody has a clue whats going on with anything and the sooner some preseaosn football gets underway the better cos it'll give us some insight into kennys preparations for next year. I think the rumour that offers aquilani to spurs is tantamount ot a macn having a laugh. read: aquilani to spurs, modric to utd into that one.
Nah I can't see Modric going to Man Ure.Spurs won't take Berbatov or Carrick in part exchange.I reckon he's going to Chelsea,Man United will then put in a bid for Fat Frank,He'll be the replacement for Giggs,who has to retire in November anyway,as he's facing 7 years in prison for telling the courts porkies aka purjery.
Twitter is reporting that Serbian press is reportnig (I know thats like hearing something from your mums sisters dog's uncle who writes for caughtoffside but its not even on their site yet) that Milan Jovanovic has been released from Liverpool FC WITHOUT compensation I find that hard to believe
Liverpool linked with Santi Cazorla http://translate.google.com/transla.../04/el-liverpool-quiere-a-cazorla-342464.html
His a short lad. Edit - Reported Liverpol target Gael Clichy has completed his move to Manchester City following passing a medical and agreeing personal terms at the City of Manchester Stadium on Monday. The deal is thought to be worth in the region of £7million with Arsenal forced to cash in on him as he entered the final year of his contract. Sky Sports News confirmed -- Nice paragraph from me, I'm in for this journo thing.
Apparently with regards to possible centre back targets,Liverpool have targetted Dejan Lovren of Lyon.He's 21 and he's Serbian and could be available for £6 million. They are also rumoured to be chasing Aaron Lennon,with either Alberto Aquilani or Joe Cole going in the opposite direction.Other news is that Stewart Downing is to hand in a transfer request at Aston Villa to seal a move to Liverpool(His supposed preferred destination)He's from the North East(So He wouldn't go to London).He would be closer to home if he joined Liverpool.If Aston Villa want Ngog,maybe that could be done in part-exchange.
Liverpool have reportedly made a bid for Spanish winger Santi Cazorla. Would be a player that fits the bill - i.e. a winger - but you have to wonder if Kenny can get the best out of him? From soccernet.com, first off, can Kenny get the best out of him? eh? what is this guy on? Secondly, I think this could be the best option in terms of wingers as I believe he would be cheaper than mata, has a bit more steel about him, is very under the radar ( not sure why), and I think can make more of an impact straight away. I really rate him, hope this is true, but then again we had 66 players linked in June alone.
Liverpool are attempting to snap up Savic from under the noses of Citeh. Alexander Doni's move to Liverpool should be finalised by thursday. Stewart Downing is expected to hand a transfer request at Aston Villa,and despite Arsenals interest will claim his only destination is Anfield.
