Summer 2012 Transfer window thread

Bendtner is the greatest Scandinavian striker of his or any generation.

Milan want to bring Kaka back seemingly. This would be a bit of a futile move in my opinion, Kaka is well past his best and they could use that money far more wisely.

Chelsea have signed Oscar.

Word on the grapevine is Juve will most likely sign Ranocchia off Inter, they need another centre back now with Caceres out for a couple of months, Chiellini struggling with injuries and what is looking more and more likely that Bonucci is proper fucked with regards to the match-fixing investigation. Inter are looking to replace Ranocchia with Marco Andreolli. There is also strong talk of a swap deal between Inter and Juve involving Pazzini and Quagliarella.

Rumours of Sahin going to Arsenal on a season long loan.

I would be very happy with this but a permanent deal with Cazorla is probably better.

Vlaar to Villa is completed subject to a medical. 27 is a good age for a centre half but any time I have seen him play he has been anything but good.

Aaron Creswell young left back from Ipswich is also expected to join in the next couple of days

Doesn’t bode well for Enda Stevens really, a loan move to get some first team football is badly needed for him.

James Collins and Jean 11 Makoun are expected to leave Villa in the next week or so.

Are you a gobshite? Why would you call him “Kayhill”?

FFS :lol:

Good man Dunph, take no shite. This cunt is becoming more annoying and predictable with his obsession for Kildare Gaa and trying to be funny like the above post. How many of his 30k posts are just smileys and not actual replies?

:rolleyes:

Proves my point.

Darren O’Dea being linked with a move to Toronto this evening.

Rasmus Elm and Kim Kallstrom are off to Moscow, joining CSKA and Spartak respectively.

West Ham United have agreed a £2m loan fee with Liverpool for Andy Carroll.

The season-long deal for the England striker would be with a view to a permanent transfer of £17m, provided West Ham stay in the Premier League.

However, it is thought the 23-year-old does not wish to leave Liverpool on a permanent basis.

The Reds turned down a bid from Newcastle[/url] to re-sign the player, having bought him from the Magpies for a [url=“http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/l/liverpool/9382215.stm”]club record fee of £35m in January 2011.

Carroll, who scored one goal for his country at Euro 2012, has struggled since his big-money move, having scored just 11 goals in 56 appearances.

He appears to have become surplus to requirements at Anfield following the arrival of former Swansea boss Brendan Rodgers and the signing of Italian striker Fabio Borini from Roma.

Newcastle manager Alan Pardew had hoped to bring the former Toon Army favourite back to the club.

Rodgers had said Liverpool would not consider a loan move for the player, but the Northern Irishman now appears prepared to allow Carroll, 23, to link up with former Newcastle manager Sam Allardyce at Upton Park.

Carroll had also been linked with a transfer to Italian side AC Milan.

The striker began his career at Newcastle, spending a season on loan at Preston, before returning to the club and becoming top-scorer in the 2009-10 season as the Magpies returned to the Premier League.

Carroll collected a League Cup winner’s medal with Liverpool last season, starting in the Wembley final against Cardiff City.

Aquilani also looks to be heading to Fiorentina on a permanent basis. Fee undisclosed as of yet.

james collins has gone back to west ham. good signing for them

The Mirror reporting that Man City made a 13 million bid for Daniel Agger last week which was rejected. Agger apparently wants to go though.

Another Italian that couldn’t make the step up.

13m of a loss or so. Benitez’s worst signing?

It turns out the stories about Aquilani and Carroll were made up by the Liverpool press office to catch a mole who was leaking transfer news.
