I hate to tell you but Fabregas won't be leaving and to the person who says he hasn't come out and said he's not leaving; he has, many many times. He continues to say it, why should he keep saying it?

As for the person saying they have Arsenal.com and Arsenal's twitter as proof of transfer news, read a bit closer, it's just the papertalk copied on to the Arsenal website, no truth in it whatsoever. Arteta won't be replacing Fabregas.

Spoke to David Dein today coming back from Hamburg in Terminal 5 at Heathrow, he says Arsenal are trying to sign 4 players, 1 being Chamakh, the others being a goalkeeper and 2 defenders to replace the departing Gallas and Silvestre. Gallas has rejected the Arsenal contract offer because he wants a payrise.

Was speaking to Mark Burchill and he says he has received a contract offer from Falkirk which he is likely to accept. The deal will most likely be announced at the beginning of June but he has already been shown around the training ground. He was also telling me that the next Killie manager is likely to be an internal appointment due to a lack of cash, with Garry Hay the favoured candidate with the players.

MANCHESTER UNITED RUMOURS

SAF has said he needs maybe 2 players to help the squad. I agree. We need an attacking midfielder how can link the midfield to attack. That player is DAVID SILVA. Also i believe he is in the market for another top class striker to play alongside rooney and cover for him if he is missing. That player is KARIM BENZEMA.

SAF has made it clear how much he admires Benzema and i fully expect him to go for him again. Also, SILVA made an admission that he would find it hard to turn down united (this was a come–and–get–me plea) and i wouldn't be surprised if that deal was already completed.

A lot of people think united don't need a striker, GET REAL. We have missed Tevez's goals and Ronaldo's goals all season and if we had them this season we would have wrapped the title up ages ago. Also Rooney and Giggs have both declared United need more firepower recently, so expect a new striker this summer.

One other point, don't be surprised if SAF adds another addition to the squad near the end of the transfer window. JAMES MILNER. This guy has impressed a lot of people this season and has shown he is capable of playing at the highest level. Expect Carrick to be sold for this to happen though.

SO.. TRANSFERS TO WATCH OUT FOR THIS SUMMER!!

David Silva – 25 million (Man United)
Karim Benzema – 25–28 million (Man United)
James Milner – 18– 20 million (Man United)

Carlos Tevez – 30 million (Real Madrid)
Fernando Torres – 50–60 million (Chelsea)
Franck Ribery – 35–40 million (Real Madrid or Chelsea)
Dimitar Berbatov – 12–20 million (Bayern Munich or Spurs)
Michael Carrick – 10–15 million (Spurs or Aston Villa)

only if carrick is sold and milner is signed

To the optimists who keep stating that Liverpool aren't in terrible financial straits and are going to spend millions this summer–dream on.
KPMG did an independent audit on your accounts and have highlighted huge concerns over your ability to keep trading as you are only solvent due to short term
loan arrangements! LFC is losing £110 000 per DAY!
Benitez will be history soon, Torres and Gerrard (If he has any self respect) will be on their way.
Joe Cole on a free? Another £100 000 per week? Don't think so!
Welcome to the real world.
Just remember what happened to Leeds.




the difference between leeds and liverpool is the amount of commercial revenue worldwide that liverpool earn.
now onto some rumours

it has been said over the last months that Gerrard is off because of his homelife, he along with torres will be there next season. as a fan i would sell stevie and bring in 2 new players to replace him. good money for a 30 year old,

vdv and higuain will be coming in

Leicester City News

Andy King has been brought to attention by some premier league clubs after an excellent season. the clubs looking to sign the youngster are newcastle, wigan, wolves and west brom but to be honest i do not see this happening

Secondly it has emerged that wayne brown and nigel pearson have had a fall out and this is the reason wayne brown did not take any part in either of the play off legs and used a hamstring injury as a cover up

Also i have found out some more rumours on who Nigel pearson was looking to buy if they were to gain promotion to the premier league

Jimmy Bullard

Zoltan Gera

Jay Emmanuel–Thomas

Martyn Waghorn

Stephen Darby

David James

I also think that these signings would of saved the club from getting relegated.

Anything Else ill keep you posted

According to my reliable source, who has told me many things dating from 3 days before Smith being forced to scum was announced, Leeds are set to make a move for Ipswich's Tamas Priskin – Bates is unhappy at spending close to £2m on him however but a loan option is being discussed.

If Beckford leaves and takes up his pre–contract agreement at Everton then Grayson will finalise the deal to bring in Heidar Helguson – he didn't feature for the London side last season and wants out – a fee in the region of £750k has apparently been agreed.

Following his release from Falkirk Enoch Showunmi is set to make a shock return on a free to now championship club Leeds, according to my reliable source.

Montgomery is all but a done deal and Grayson is still trying to persuade Beckford to stay – if he doesn't he will go to Everton as currently agreed and Leeds will make an approach for Arsenal's Sanchez Watt who impressed during his loan spell.

If that fails then Grayson will attempt to bring Stevenage's Mitchel Cole in, a long term target of his.

–Arsenal–

everyone stop saying that arsenal will let go of gallas.
HE SIGNED A NEW CONTRACT

he's going to be around next season, the end.

all you have to do is go on arsenal's site through the premier league site.

and to the guy who said arsene wenger needs to grow some balls, you obviously have only watched football once in your life.

arsene wants to keep the club clear of debt. portsmouth went down because their previous manager's didn't care about the long run, arsene does.

IF YOU KEEP BUYING 100 PLAYERS EVERY SEASON, YOU'LL TURN INTO REAL MADRID.
barely able to beat the smaller teams in the la liga because every season they buy 5 or 6 players and they never have time to mesh together.

arsenal are letting their players grow together.
this is why NO STARTERS are leaving. not diaby, not gallas, not fabregas, denilson, eduardo or nasri.

almunia to Osasuna in spain it's looking like.

Contrary to what has been posted on other sites, the Hull squad will reject the wage deferral.

I know this, as I was speaking with Jimmy Bullard earlier. He's a great chap and told me that he's had firm offers from 3 midland–based clubs as well as Newcastle and Celtic. The Celtic one is most appealing, but he also wants to be nearer his family in the south – so he's torn between where to go.

Hesselink is off to SPL or Europe and George Boateng has been sounded out by Newcastle and Rangers.

"Any truth that John Bostock is off to Forest?"

He is on his way out after featuring in a showcase Chelsea/Tottenham game to allow coaches and scouts to view younger players who are up for sale or loan. Whether or not he goes to Forest I don't know. Bostock had a mixed time at Brentford, by all accounts, and should probably of bided his time Crystal Palace for two or three more years. Going to Tottenham has really stalled his progress so a season at a club such as Forest – assuming he plays regularly – could well get him back on track. Sharkey

sorry fella but according to an agent on talk sport today bostock and the chelsea player( (cant remember his name) both have big futures at their clubs and are/were the only ones on show that are not for sale

 

13 May 2010 17:48:01
The story of buffon coming 2 arsenal r really gathering pace but im afraid its just a damp squid a no go. Wenger's a cleaver man he know's the outlay & return 4 a player of 32 just does'nt make sense also there r quite a few keepers available 4 half that price & younger. But look out 4 a cheeky bid 4 schwarzer 2/3mil also hangeland 1Omil or cahill 12mil with vela or wilkshire on 6 to 12 month loan. Now the deal with yar yar toure has bin done 13mil with barca gettin first dibs on fab nxt summer or 2O12

13 May 2010 17:30:36
Here ppl.. united and liverpool will both more than likely have to sell to buy.. liverpool more so because united have around £30m for the summer which will be used to sign bale, modric, rodwell or silva. no more strikers.

aguero will not leave, villa will be staying in spain, milner won't leave. if any of them do leave i will be baffled.

hopefully arsene wenger grows a pair and uses some money this summer (im a united fan and im saying this) the premier league is in danger of becoming a carbon copy of the scottish league with united and chelsea unless arsenal buy. french players like gourcouff, gignac, lloris are most likely to sign (obviously chamakh will too so maybe not gignac)

"REAL NEWS

I have known Niall Quinn for years and Sunderland and him self have been in talks with a fella from Paraguay about investment into the club, the deal is far from over but if all goes ahead:

Bruce will remain in charge but must be in top 6 by Christmas, he will be given Robinho, Óscar Cardozo and also Bellamy

Bruce will then be given 100 million to sign who ever he wants"

What a load of rubbish! After being bought out by a stable American billionaire business man and forming a strong relationship with Niall himself and the club; i doubt he would even think of selling the club!

Onto the REAL rumours:

Cabanas

GK– Buffon mentioned alot in here but it goes against all fergies normal transfer dealings when talking about his price. 12m for a 32 year old will not be good business no matter how good he is more like 12m on De Gea, Asenjo or Neuer.

CM– Either Silva or Schweinsteiger but ideally Sneijder.

CB/LB– Cheillini, Subotic or Kjaer. Cheillini best option but could be pricey

Arsenal transfer update :
juventus are going to let go of buffon now for certain since they are in a big financial problem and buffon does not want to play for them no more. so its certain he will leave. him and his agent are currently negotiating with arsenal. however juventus will try get more bang for their buck and are trying to pursuade wenger to give one of his rising stars and money for buffon. diaby is the likely candidate for this since he is the only "big" player at our club who has ever wanted to play in italy.
armand traore also wants to play in italy but he isn't really worth much anyway. if a deal does happen it would be 10–18mil plus a player. this is more than a rumor but not facts yet.

arsenal are alredy looking for a replacement for diaby and the board don't think he is suitable for the club since he doesn't fit in well and we have too many defensive midfeilders anyway (most in england). arteta is also linked with arsenal.

Fernando Torres has not even thought about leaving Liverpool he will only leave if the owners say he has to go , even then he will have to think about it. Ever Banega will sign in the next 2 weeks for 10m along with Jovanovic and maybe Joe Cole. Liverpool`s money problems are nowhere near as bad as being reported

 

13 May 2010 16:03:40
Rafa has told there will be limited budget for Summer so he now decided to use his players in swap deals to bring new ones

Rafa want to swap Yossi with Roman Pavlyuchenko , Rafa has identified The Russian as perfect backup for Torres , Tottenham want another 2m but both players want to leave and talks are ongoing

Rafa also offered Babel to Galatasaray + 5m for Arda Turan , Rijkaard happy with deal as he see Babel a good replacement for Turan

Liverpool also will offered Reiera + 4m to Valencia for Ever Banega , Valencia need replacement for Silva and Banega want to join his fellow Argentinians Mascherano and Maxi and Insua , Rafa also will gave his old club his young player Daniel Pacheco on loan for 1 year

Liverpool hope to bring 20m from selling other fringe players to bring new LB alongside Dida and Joe Cole and Milan Jovanovic in free transfers

A friend of mine who is related to an England international footballer currently plying his trade at Eastlands, has told me Manchester City are doing everything they can to sign Steven Gerrard, Fernando Torres and Cesc Fabregas. The only stumbling block is the lack of Champions League football.

Also, after being named City's Player Of The Year, I hear Carlos Tevez is getting itchy feet again, with Spain likely to be his destination this summer..

13 May 2010 14:06:48
Gooners face facts, Cesc has been quoted as saying, he will leave Arsenal if they fail to win the Champions LG or the title, you failed in both! He has said he will go back to play for Barca when he leaves Arsenal, Barca have made their interest clearly known, Wenger has come out and said Cesc will regret leaving, why would he come out and say this? Arsenal have offered him a new and improved contract and gave him something in the region of 3m! The most frightening thing of all is he has not ONCE come out and said "I'M STAYING"

Why would all this be happening if there was no chance of him going this summer? WAKE UP!

Lee Hendre. Rob Earnshaw will join along with Steve Howard to replace Chopra and Mc Cormack. Whittingham will be sold to wigan in a swap for Koumas the legend. Ledley will sign for Stoke or Everton and the tribunal money will be used to look for League one and two players who may the grade in the Championship. The stangest one I have heard is that we will buy Mark Gower from swansea for £750,000 and Tom Butler on a free. This is what I heard in the bar after last nites victory.

Benzema to ManU stands a chance as lack of football at Madrid cost him his World Cup place and if as expected David Villa arrives he would be pushed further down the order.
Aguero to Chelsea looks equally likely, good age, quick feet, good on the ball. Interesting compare Aguero and Javier Hernández who United have signed both 1.72 m (5 ft 7+1⁄2 in), born one day apart in June 1988 and both with a scoring ratio of 0.4 goals a game.

This assumes the person with the cheque book at Eastlands doesn't try and get involved with both deals.

Couple of notes on other comments:
To all the people saying Gerrard is leaving for 20–40 million. He is indeed still 29 (but only for 17 more days) on wages of at least £6million a year. Thus if you buy him on a 3 year contract he will be 18–20million plus transfer fee for a player with no resale value. I suspect the only club that will play a really big fee for him is in Manchester and playing in blue.

13 May 2010 11:07:22
Buffon will be joinin the Emirates – Old Trafford would be more likely (more need, VDS in his last season) I think
FABREGAS is not leaving!He wants to stay and win a trophy with Arsenal – There you have it, he is staying for another ten years ;–)

Kolarov basically signed and jovanovic done deal

This is all no villa although rafa would like!
But the take over won't be as quick as people think soo rafa still has fairly limited funds sooo from sale of players and standard charter deal whicch gives 20mill he won't have too muuch cash to sspend.

BREAKING NEWS

I have just be told by a very reliable source that Manchester United are about to announce the double signing of Giorgio Chiellini and Gianluigi Buffon from Juventus.

The fee is rumoured to be in the region of £40,000,000 for the both of them with Federico Macheda moving in the opposite direction on a 12 month loan deal.

Remember that you saw this on www.football–rumours.co.uk first.

The man in the know..

To the guy who said this:
Rangers rumours
===============
several changes look certain at ibrox in next 2 months.
If, and its still an if, Ellis takes over he will offer smith & co a new 3 year deal, however smith has said that he will only stay if there is money to spend. Its rumoured that if Ellis clears the offical debt then rangers will need to sell before buying.

This is obviously a celtic fan who is gutted that Rangers have won the league with no money to spent when you have spent a lot and won nothing.

It is known that Rangers have around £5m to give to smith for transfers and/or contracts extentions. Meaning offers will made to Boyd and so on. A few will leave, Bougherra or Wilson look certain to leave. With Webster coming back in and the likes of Thomson and Davis playing well we really only need to sign a forward if Boyd goes. Heard a rumour that rangers have been told by Utd that if they want Goodwillie they will need to pay around the £1m mark for him. If the Ellis deal goes through then we will be debt free and will be able to offer contracts and maybe even a few signings. However the management of rangers will change and it will be run more like a business i.e. higher turnover than costs.

 

13 May 2010 12:35:28
Berbatov has quit international football, he has decided to put all of his efforts into United, a clear indication that he will be remaining at United for next season! now he is staying and United have signed Chicarito, maybe this will end rumours of strikers being linked to United! United are after just one or two players, an attacking midfielder/ left midfielder will be brought in and a keeper although united are okay for keepers next season, they will need one for the season after, it as been reported that United will sign David De Gea for around 10m and loan him back to Atletico, United will also sign one of the following players Modric, Milner, Jovetic or Silva, United have 25 million for one of these! The money raised by players sold this summer will go straight to the Glazer's!

Bruce will then be given 100 million to sign who ever he wants

"Benzema to united–60M" are you crazy! HOW DID THIS NOT MAKE IT INTO THE BANTER SECTION?

A lot of talk today about Liverpool in the transfer window, I did mention banega moving to liverpool about 1 month ago (but it was placed in the banter section of the site).

The banega deal will be complete and this will be followed by a formal offer of 2 loans and 13 million for Mata, if this is rejected expect a move for Joaquín.

I expect to to arda, left back and a forward at Liverpool next year – perhaps high profile loan move?

 

13 May 2010 12:32:06
Man United.

SAF will sign a midfielder to play with fletcher and a creative midfielder to play behind the striker. and possibly another partner for Rooney.

In the middle could be, Milner 20m Modric 20m and possibly Gourcuff around the same price.

David Silva has been rumoured for around 25m which would be a quality signing.

Then the obvious rumour of Benzema for around 20–30m. This deal will only happen is Madrid and United have some sort of deal with Vidic.

With all the rumours of buffon going to arsenal, has anyone got a rough idea of what sort of money he is on at juventus? surely it is above 100k a week and if he comes to arsenal he surely wouldn't take a wage cut. This would mean the arshavin, van persie and fabregas would want parity with him in terms of weekly wage which i don't see happening making the deal very unlikely.

Sakho and wright phillips to sign with the possibility of Ireland joining them– if they all go through, 3 bargins!!

 

13 May 2010 12:11:54
Rangers rumours
===============
several changes look certain at ibrox in next 2 months.
If, and its still an if, Ellis takes over he will offer smith & co a new 3 year deal, however smith has said that he will only stay if there is money to spend. Its rumoured that if Ellis clears the offical debt then rangers will need to sell before buying.

Mcgregor looks to be on his way down south for around £2M as several teams areinterested in the goalie.
Bougie will be sold for around £4m and danny wilson lookscertain to join liverpool for about £2M.
there is about 5 or 6 first team players out of contract and expected to leave, including boyd and novo.

Davie weir looks set to stay for one more season if smith is still there, also candidate for player of year dougie mcdonald will also stay to do his best for the gers again next season.

If the Ellis deal falls through, then it will be dark times ahead for the gers.

And with next to no money in the SPL and this season being the last automatic entry to the CL then don't expect too much cash to be spent by SPL teams.

Celtic Rumours
==================
Lennon is still a front runner for the managers job for several reasons, 8 out 8 leagues wins, won't cost anything to get, already knows the squad and what changes are needed, has a good working relationship with Dermot Desmond & most of the supporters would perfer him to another average manager. A poor result in the cup and lack of experience go against him but in the real world we have no chance of getting a manager of the status of hughes, o' neil, or hudgson.
incoming rumours
Stokes – Hibs £2M
Goodwillie – Dun Utd £1.5M
Keane – Spurs £2M + either mcgeady or scott brown.

outgoing
sammi – palermos (spelling ?? italy) £2M – (please be true)
mcmanus – middlesbough £2M
Boruc – Italy – £3M
Mcgeady or brown – P/E deal spurs.

other SPL teams
=================
most other teams will deal in free transfers again, hibs will spend a little bringing in O'Connor for around £350k.

 

13 May 2010 11:41:59
Liverpool: bleak times. financially we are in big trouble and whilst currently awaiting new owners will be buying.. no–one. even with new owners it is unlikely a major spending spree will be embarked upon (unless we are taken over by some multi–billionnaires). If a take over occurs expect the main focus to be the stadium development which in the long run makes sense.

Ibrahimovic is going to be off–loaded by Barcelona and Torres or Villa will take his place. Gerrard is unlikley to leave and if Villa signs for Barcelona Torres will certainly stay put for another season at least.

This season, regardless of whatever takeover occurs, will see only 2 players signed by Liverpool in order for us to once again break even.. expect a handful of sales, Benayoun and Babel the most ominous looking. Winger and Left Back look most likely – Kolarov and Turan seem the most obvious due to there price and not really being targeted by other big teams.

I hope things pick–up for Liverpool

To the guy who posted about milner and silva to man utd saying neither would happen as we are looking for someone to play with fletcher and someone to play behind striker. Well that would be milner next to fletcher and silva behind the striker.
Personally both are no goers as a strike partner for rooney who can actually do something unlike someone we already have is top billing NOT benzema but hopefully looking at dzeko or hulk then cover in midfield likely to be on the cheap like diarra (either of them) or toure. I would prefer cambiasso but will prob cost loads with impending euro success. If Berba is sold (here's hoping) then a possible cash and swap with either sweinstiger (or however you spell it) huntelaar depending on his destination. i would prefer cash only to re–invest in a workable link player who will actually run, control the ball, pass to our players and maybe even beat our second highest goal getter this season (og's) ideally sneijder who we should have went for last season when he ws sold for for 15m and will now be at least 10m more

 

13 May 2010 11:07:22
People please listen to yourselves–FABREGAS is not leaving!!!He wants to stay and win a trophy with Arsenal. He has also a new contract which he accepted and is now on £110k per week. Fabregas is also worth more then £45million–if kaka went for £55mill and he is 28 then Fabregas is worth atleast £60million.

It is true however that Buffon will be joinin the Emirates–but not for £16million plus Diaby.Buffon is 32, and Juventus are broke and Diaby had a good season and no way will he leave–Buffon will come in for about £12million

Gallas is become awfully greedy and no matter how good he is, greedy players are not welcomed at arsenal.He will leave, and either Subotic, Kjaer or Sakho will come in to replace–my money is on KJaer £12million.and Possibly ALSO SAKHO for £7million plus TRAOURE.

Rumours are that YAYA TOURE will join, this is true, he can't get a game at BARFA, so he will come in and compete with Song–his fee will be about £15million plus 1st Refusal on Fabregas.

Now depending on the situation with Rosicky or Arshavin, whoever leaves HAZARD will come in to replace and that is guranteed.Hazard is AW no1 target no matter how frail our defence looks. If not this summer then Hazard will definitely join next summer for a fee of £20million–Arsenals Highest Transfer Record.

Chamack will come in next week and will play upfront with Van Persie–AW will try to integrate the old 4–4–2 system.

The future looks Bright lets hope we win atleast the CARLING CUP with this squad!

 

13 May 2010 10:58:41
BREAKING NEWS
____________________________________________


Its confirmed that Arsenal's Playmaker Cesc FABrilliant is making his way to Barcelona for a fee of £45m+Yaya Toure. This deal will be finalize before the World Cup starts.

Also Arsene Wenger hasn't signed a new contract because the Board did not turn down the offer for Fabregas. Pending how well we do in the new season 2010/11 he might extend his contract for another 2 years.

The Board are looking to reduce the clubs debt to about £50million before the end of the new season.

AW will bring in a few faces to add to the team. Buffon's deal will go through before the World Cup.
Ramsey will be playing a major part next season.
____________________________________________

DON'T BE A PLUM, IT'S £45M IN CASH OR 25M PLUS YAYA! IN FACT ITS NOT EVEN £45M, IT'S 50M EURO'S WHICH IS ABOUT £43–44M! 50M IS THE MOST BARCELONA WILL BE OFFERING, BUT DO NOT BE SURPRISED IF THEY GO IN WITH A 40M EURO OFFER TO START WITH!

 

13 May 2010 10:49:20
If you wrote this you need you head read After watching the mighty Bluebirds reach wembley again last night heard some intresting rumours for next season.

The new investment coming in from Datuk Chan Tien Ghee is pretty much guarenteed for next season even if we fail to reach the prem. If we do go up this year though expect some decent money being available for players.

List of targets for next year include:

Koumas (Martinez willing to cash in as looking at Pratley and Allen from Swansea and Koumas was a big hit in Cardiff when he last played for us)

Gabbidon – Looking for a move home after poor spell at West Ham.

Apparently through our good relationship over the Ramsey signing we will be getting a top rated youngster on loan from Arsenal next year. Rumour is that Ramsey may come back next year to play regular football in order to recover from his injury. If not Ramsey then maybe Wilshire (more likely to stay at Bolton) or another talented youngster. Expect Arsenal to keep tabs on Matthews as well although not looking to sign him before 2011/2012.

Dave Jones also looking to bolster defence for next year. Ledley to sign new deal too

Not happening The board are not hedging their bets yet as they know the final is a lottery if we fail to get to the premiership expect some shock departures Ledley Whittingham Choppra and Dave Jones all to premiership clubs as Diao looks to balance the debt and hudge wage bill.

Just been at the spurs training ground as my mate dan is in the academy..luis fabianos agent, paulo saurvez de vilva, being taken on a tour around the training ground.

Also good source at the academy tells me that Spurs will make an ambitious attempt to sign Ibrahimovic and our willing to change their wage cap to bring him in.

it is widely known harry is looking for another centre back, don't knock this one but rumours around carrington are that Titus Bramble is coming to the lane this afternoon!

Joe Ledley will be signed by Newscatle should Cardiff fail to make the permier league.

He fits all the current criteria required by Newcastle chairman Mike Ashley, he's relatively young, wouldn't command a transfer fee and isn't a high earner as he has no previous premier league experience.

 

13 May 2010 10:55:47
Heard a guy called davenport is going to Celtic on pay as you play deal with a clause for contract termination. 2 year deal.

 

13 May 2010 10:29:09
Not so much of rumors but more speculation (not made up stuff basically).
the chairman of arsenal will not offer gallas his 80k a week so its very unlikely he will resign at the club.
wenger will sign a new 3 year deal this week.
sol campbell will also hold talks with wenger for a 1 year contract renewal by june, (after gallas's contract deadline).
chamakh will join the club this week and train on the ground rather than take a holiday. (wenger also confirmed he has signed him).
gianluigi buffon deal is almost done apparently, supposedly he is coming for 16mil and diaby on top.
united and arsenal are trying to sign evertons mikel arteta since he won't resign at the club, he would replace diaby when he leaves and partner cesc in midfeild. personally i don't think united will sign him they will sign a bigger name player who is younger like gourcuff or someone.
finaly arsenal will sign a defender if gallas does not sign a new deal. sakho and Subotic are likely signing's since they are cheap (typical) and young. if gallas signs a new deal we will only sign youth defenders for the reserve team.
finaly eden hazard is a possible signing and so is franck ribery if arshavin leaves. these are the only 2 players arsenal are eyeing at the moment.

so all in all 3 new players will be signing maybe 4 or 5 if big name stars like arshavin decide to leave.
summary:
chamakh – done
buffon – 16mil + diaby – looking very likely to happen.
gallas signing new deal – very unlikely now
arteta – very big possibility tough the player has only talked about a possible move with arsenal once.
eden hazard/ribery – not going to happen unless arshavin does leave.

thanks for reading and remember these are not rumors they are event's that have happened and the likely scenario's that will happen.

 

13 May 2010 10:42:05
Wouldn't be surprised to see Calum Davenport go to Notts County. County have the capacity for dealing with players who lets say have lost their way, and Davenport has been released by West Ham. Injury free he is a good defender who would easily be the best in league 1 and help them mount a serious challenge for promotion.

 

13 May 2010 10:12:17
There will be no buffon, vdvaart, balotelli, higuain, etc at arsenal next season. people, vdvaart aside the players on that list and many others on that list are valued at ve £15m. with Chamakh coming in, there is no need for the likes of Balotelli and Higuain. Wenger will unfortunately not buy a new keeper, but even if he changes his mind he won't buy a £15m keeper, its just not the wenger way.
apart from chamakh expect a maximum of 2 more first team arrivals. any other signings will be youngsters not yet ready for the first team. the CB position will obviously be strengthed with Gallas set to leave, my guess is with an English CB to bring the grit that has been lacking, and possibly a midfielder.
dont expect the likes of Hazard even though he would be a great signing for anyone.
as for Fabregas rumours, the spanish press write anything to unsettle players who are being targeted by Barcelona or Real Madrid. people should have clocked onto this ages ago.
fabregas will go NOWHERE this summer.

David Nugent has just walked past the wembley ticket queue at Bloomfield road as bold as brass, they didn't even try to sneak him in at all.

I suspect the rumours of him joining if we are promoted are true.

RAFA HAS HAD HIS HANDS BURNT BY THE YANKS BEFORE AND VOWED NEVER AGAIN.

BREAKING NEWS
____________________________________________


Its confirmed that Arsenal's Playmaker Cesc FABrilliant is making his way to Barcelona for a fee of £45m+Yaya Toure. This deal will be finalize before the World Cup starts.

Also Arsene Wenger hasn't signed a new contract because the Board did not turn down the offer for Fabregas. Pending how well we do in the new season 2010/11 he might extend his contract for another 2 years.

The Board are looking to reduce the clubs debt to about £50million before the end of the new season.

AW will bring in a few faces to add to the team. Buffon's deal will go through before the World Cup.
Ramsey will be playing a major part next season.

Arsenal are apparently very close to Buffon and are after one of Toulalan, Arteta and Guti. Wenger has also said he will definitely buy a new CB

 

13 May 2010 09:26:28
After watching the mighty Bluebirds reach wembley again last night heard some intresting rumours for next season.

The new investment coming in from Datuk Chan Tien Ghee is pretty much guarenteed for next season even if we fail to reach the prem. If we do go up this year though expect some decent money being available for players.

List of targets for next year include:

Koumas (Martinez willing to cash in as looking at Pratley and Allen from Swansea and Koumas was a big hit in Cardiff when he last played for us)

Gabbidon – Looking for a move home after poor spell at West Ham.

Apparently through our good relationship over the Ramsey signing we will be getting a top rated youngster on loan from Arsenal next year. Rumour is that Ramsey may come back next year to play regular football in order to recover from his injury. If not Ramsey then maybe Wilshire (more likely to stay at Bolton) or another talented youngster. Expect Arsenal to keep tabs on Matthews as well although not looking to sign him before 2011/2012.

Dave Jones also looking to bolster defence for next year. Ledley to sign new deal too

Transfers for Liverpool– Rafa has met with Martin Broughton and exposed the week links and aging players in the squad. This will prove a major overhaul at Anfield. The following will not be playing for Liverpool next seasonand yes Torres, Gerrard & Rafa WILL be there.

Liverpool will improve attacking depth such as Niang, Jovanovic, also Dalle Valle and Pacheco will feature in cup ties.
Defensively Kolarov will fill the much needed Left back position. He will also take the Right sided free kick which Aurelio used to take. Ayala and Wilson will be bread to replace Carragher. Ayala will feature more often with Skrtel offloaded.
Midfield will prove to have a lot more depth aswell. Experience of Van Der Vaart and youth of 'Argentine Alonso' Banega, Turkish star winger Turan and Jonjo Shelvey(new Gerrard). Aquilani will feature more and prove his value.

TRUE rumours

 

13 May 2010 07:46:08
Marco Borriello will join Liverpool this summer for 16m plus Plessis. Liverpool stole Plessis from under Milan's noses a couple of years ago, and now Liverpool are willing to give the Frenchman to Milan for their star forward. Milan Jovanovic will be announced a Liverpool player next week, and will wear the number 11 jersey, and Taye Taiwo will make the move to RED Merseyside after the World Cup for 10m.Gary Cahill has been snubbed by Man Utd, so he too will sign for the Reds for 15m

 

13 May 2010 04:34:35
Liverpool and Tottenham are in the process of setting up a swap deal Yossi Benayoun plus £2million for Roman Pavlyuchenko, this could be paving the way for Luka Modric to move to Old Trafford, Harry is also currently in talks to bring Luis Fabiano.

 

13 May 2010 05:36:00
Liverpool will be getting new owners while the world cup is going on and will be making a few signings but only 1 marquee{£20million+} signing after the world cup , Rafa is staying and has made a new striker his priority{about time} the man he wants is Robin Van Persie but I can't see Wenger letting him go and I have heard he is very good freinds with Ryan Babel but he is definatley on his way out the door so that is of no significance and whether he would be open to a move or not my guess is probably not, however Arsenal have all but wrapped up a deal for Marouanne Chamahk and have opened talks over a £30million move for David Villa although Barcelona are thought to be favourites for his signature.

 

13 May 2010 02:52:46
Unfortunatley good knowledge gives me info that he did for adebayor last season that Cesc is off this season

 

13 May 2010 02:54:41
Liverpool fc
ok this may sound crazy but rafa is looking at carrick of man u as he see's him as his replacement for alonso and will strenghen his midfield. saf doesn't see him very highly as he never produces on the big stage, so saf thinks he will be getting the better deal, also rafa will agree not to bid for silva as saf wants him. rafa is a big admire of silva but see mata or turan(who ever is cheaper) as a better player and a better deal.
rafa is also doing all he can to sign joe cole and kolarov and is planing a move for cahill if skrtel decides to leave.
people will question were is the money coming from but the new others will be in soon and will not splash the cash but will give rafa another money to put up more of a title challenge.

 

13 May 2010 01:09:25
Gerrard to madrid for either 40,000 000 or swap deal with higuain, vdv, lass, possibly kaka im not saying all these players in a swap deal, i now gerrard may be 29 but he is still one of, if not the best and most dinamic central midfielders in the world. Plus after the world cup like anybody else if he plays well his price will go up but this is just my opinian so please feel free to tell me yours.

The liverbird will rise again next season YNWA.

 

13 May 2010 00:39:13
MASSIVE ARSENAL RUMOR!

I spoke with a top notch 100% reliable & credible source today, who was VERY hesitant about giving me this information.Yaya Toure and possibly one other Barca player + cash are on their way to the Emirates..with Fabregas going the other way!

 

13 May 2010 00:42:45
Arsenal team next season:

Buffon

Sagna Kjaer Vermaelen Clichy

Song

Fabregas Van der Vaart

Nasri Arshavin

Van Persie

With the options of Walcott, Chamakh and possibly Hazard On the bench aswell it would stand us in good stead for the injuries we always seem to get to key players. Champions 10/11

ALL GOOD IN THEORY, AND YES ARSENAL WITH THESE PLAYERS COULD BE CHAMPIONS, BUT WENGER IS STUBBORN, HAZARD, KJAER, VDV AND BUFFON WOULD COST AN ABSOLUTE BARE MINIMUM OF 50 MILLION, WENGER WOULD NEVER SPEND THAT AMOUNT! A CENTRE BACK IS DEFINITELY COMING IN AS WILL A KEEPER, BUT EXPECT TWO UNHEARD OF PLAYERS TO COME IN FOR MINIMAL AMOUNTS OF MONEY, HAZARD WILL BE BID FOR BUT ARSENAL ARE LIKELY TO MISS OUT TO REAL MADRID!

 

13 May 2010 00:29:28
Again, more rubbish.. to the person who posted this :

12 May 2010 14:31:38
West Ham rumours:

The managerial position has many contenders but the Davids want premier league experience. This rules out people like Di Canio and Bilic, also Mark Hughes is not interested but he was first choice.......Peace Out!

––––––––

£12m for Behrami, your talking garbage.. youll be lucky to get £5m for him.. as for getting Ridgewell and Larsson on bosmans, they've had their deals extended at Birmingham, you could only loan one player from Arsenal, just like one player from any Prem club (seeing as its a league rule)..and there will be NO major investment in your side.

Trust me, im a Birmingham fan who is used to Sullivan and Gold..they make big promises to sell season tickets, usually of a "£10m striker" (this is one we had a few years back)..which ended up being a loan deal for Mikael Forssell, where the £10m covered the loan fee, and his wages for the duration of his loan deal!

Dont trust a word they say..they will sell Green, Cole, Upson, and go for replacements on the cheap

 

13 May 2010 00:17:13
To the Idiot that said this ..

12 May 2010 17:19:31
Benzema(realmadrid) linked with man utd(40mil)
Robbie Blake(burnely) linked with hearts(free)
Dos Santos(spurs) linked with west brom(2mil)
Milner(Villa) linked with spurs, man utd and arsenal (20mil)
Gordon(Sunderland) linked with arsenal (10–13mil)
ballotelli(inter) linked with chelsea(10–15mil)
chamakh(bordoaux) linked with arsenal (15mil)
akinfeev(cska moscow) linked with man utd (20 mil)
Maicon(inter) linked with man city (30–40mil)

You are foolish.

Why would United pay £40m for Benzema who can't get a game at Real, and isn't in the French squad at all for the World Cup..Real got him cheaper, and there's no way they'll make a profit.

Secondly, Chamakh will be joining Arsenal for free, on a BOSMAN..not for £15m!

Some people are just fantasists and try to make up utter garbage to look cool.

As for real rumours

Chamakh to Arsenal – Free
Foster to Birmingham – £4m rising to £6m depending on appearances/success
Konchesky to Birmingham – Free
Milner to Man United – £20m–ish
Aleksander Kolarov to Liverpool – £12m

 

12 May 2010 23:45:26
Arsenal will bring in 3 players maximum. this will not include a GK, unfortunately.
1) Marouane Chamakh – almost done
2) a CB: likely to be very experienced if Gallas leaves (along the lines of Mexes, Zapata, Cahill maybe), or a youngster with world class potential if he stays (eg Subotic, Sakho etc).
3) a choice between a DCM or Hazard (if Wenger truly sees his potential).
leaving will be senderos, silvestre, traore, merida and simpson, and probably gallas.
cant wait to see wellington silva in action after january.

 

12 May 2010 23:33:32
To all these rumours about ManU buying both Milner and Silva. that's complete garbage. utd will bid for a player who can play beside Fletcher in a 4–4–2 or behind the striker in a 4–5–1 fergie change shis system to suit the opponent he needs a tactically flexible player Milner being the number one option with Dzeko up front with Rooney. Most rumours have Benzema coming but expect Dzeko Benzema and either Diarra coming to O.T. also rubbish. Ferguson knows he is two players away from from having a perfectly balanced squad with cover both older and younger for every position. The only players that may leave are Carrick , Berbatov, and maybe a few younger players on loan e.g. cleverly. Ji–Sung Park is one of fergie's soldiers, why the F!k would SAF sell him. no more than two or three players coming in to united along with Smalling, Hernandez, and Vermiljl. Ireland also a possibility as he would be a cheaper alternative to all the AMF players beingb linked to UTD.
