This from Rotoworld: Nani is said to be close to agreeing a move to Turkish side Fenerbahce. The Portuguese winger expected to travel to Istanbul this week to complete a medical ahead of his $10 million transfer. Nani played just once for Man Utd last season before signing for Sporting CP on loan for the remainder of the campaign and now looks surplus to requirements at Old Trafford. The 4 year contract is reportedly worth in the region of $90k per week after tax and the arrival of Luís Carlos Almeida da Cunha could be the first of a number of players rumoured to be signing. Arsenal goalkeeper David Ospina is believed to be on his way although the likelihood of Robin van Persie joining him looks improbable. Fulham flop Kostas Mitroglou is also in talks about a permanent transfer away from Craven Cottage.
Blows my mind that no EPL teams were in on him. I would have happily taken him as a DM at Arsenal. Great player.
Deulofeu to Everton complete Everton will sign Deulofeu for €6 million and sign a four-year deal with the player. For the first three years, Barcelona has the priority to buy the forward back, with an increasing fee on each year, reaching €14 million in the final year.
@DeadlineDayLive: BREAKING: Liverpool have agreed a deal with Hoffenheim to sign Roberto Firmino.(Source: Sky Sports)
Bout time we do something exciting in the market. Shocking if we really get this done. Fuck off Sterling!!!!
Yeah but when you factor in the Sterling money we could have done a lot worse. We have to overpay to get someone like Firmino.
Dimitri Payet to West Ham for 12 million GBP. A little pricey, but I like the move. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/fo...nd-look-lure-Stewart-Downing-away-London.html
I will be interested to see if this actually happens. Marseille still haven't signed Bielsa to an extension yet and if they sell Payet I can't see him staying. A lot of talks in France about Payet being in talks to extend his contract too.
From everything I've read the contract Marseille are offering right now isn't quite as good as the package West Ham is offering. However, I've heard he's fairly loyal to Bielsa and would be open to returning on a short-term deal if OM can re-sign Bielsa and give him a comparable salary.
Firmino got a German tattoo on his neck using google translate and of course it didn't translate properly, he may not be very smart.
We sign a Brazilian player with gelled hair and tattoos that would normally make arsenal fans cream and because he signs for us he's stupid. Just funny that's all.
You guys have more faux hawks per capita than anyone in Europe. I'm in a soccer group text with 6 arsenal fans from high school and by nature I have to knock them down a few pegs when I can. It's habit.
There needs to be a scientific study done on how being a liverpool fan, even thousands of miles away, makes you sensitive to any criticism.
