Summer Transfer Rumour Thread.

[Beef]

The same basic hitch that caused the Buttner deal to collapse.

Nah Ramirez doesn't have a dick of a dad (I hope)

So not a denial..that's something.

So not a denial..that's something.

Seeing as to deny we've been in contact would be full on lying, it's not really something.

 

[(Conor)]

Completely different cases. All that's required here is for Cortese to up his offer a little. Not nearly as complex as the Buttner affair.

Very true, but a hitch is a hitch and we should be wary of it.

So I've just come in, but let me see if I've got this right;
You're annoyed with NC because Bologna are not happy about the installment plans on a £12M transfer.
Wow, we have come far, we are now Man City, congrats.

 

[fran-MLs little camera]

Don't think anyone is angry with Nicola...I think I'll leave the fine details of negotiations to him.

We were being sarcastic in reply to some people panicking and criticising the club over it on various mediums.

Theres so much sarcasm on here now that I can't even see through it!

Better to sign a couple of top quality Centre Backs or we are going to have to score a lot of goals to match the holes at the back.

Gabriele Marcotti ‏@Marcotti

Sky Italia also reporting that there is an issue with fact that 30 pct of Gaston Ramirez owned by 3rd party.

 

[- Doing The Lambert Walk]

Marcotti has just tweeted:

"Sky Italia reporting that hold up of Ramirez to Southampton deal has to do with method of payment (installments v lump sum)."

 

[Beef]

3rd party is his old club, think they have a 30% of future transfer clause.

 

[- Doing The Lambert Walk]

@dylan_fahy: @Marcotti What do you think of Guaraldi categorically ruling out a transfer for less than €20m? (http://www.football-italia.net/23521/bologna-cling-ramirez &#8230


@Marcotti: @dylan_fahy I think it's classic bait-and-switch... trying to get some more money, especially in light of Betancourt's (the agent's) cut.

 

[ThatThereSaintsFan]

You've both got him reporting different problems?

 

[- Doing The Lambert Walk]

He tweeted twice on the deal. GBS has posted his 2nd tweet and me his 1st.

 

[- Doing The Lambert Walk]

I asked Marcotti what he thought of the deal, likely or unlikely to get Ramirez to Saints.

He replied.... "Likely".
