Stickied Transfer Rumours 2018/19

[Jamie_SFC]

L'equipe saying Boufal to Saints is a done deal despite late interest from Leicester and higher salary from another unnamed club.

 

[SALTIRE]

Apparently Liverpool are trying for Pulisic with an £11 mill bid submitted. Stoke want him as well according to the press.

 

[Nilsson]

Great stuff from Mourinho

 

[hodge]

Hull apparently now bidding £14m for Kodjia, imagine we'll accept with it coming from a prem club.

 

[Bentos]

It's all kicking off around here now. The takeover is as good as done (although unlikely to be finalised before deadline day), and we seemingly now have their money to sign players before Wednesday.

Bid has been accepted and terms agreed with David Marshall of Cardiff. Bid was accepted for Ryan Mason of Spurs, although it now seems that has broken down and we're looking at Jeff Hendrick at Derby. Rumours that Markus Henriksen of AZ Alkmaar is in England discussing personal terms after a fee was agreed with his club. And, as mentioned above, it would appear we've bid £14mil for Jonathan Kodjia from Bristol City.

Remarkably, rumours of a £20 million bid from Aston Villa for Abel Hernandez were confirmed by their chairman on Twitter - and we've rejected it! All of a sudden, we have a backbone and are showing some real intent. Long may it continue!

 

[hodge]

Looks like it will be Hull buying Kodjia, seems he had his head turned.

 

[JimJams]

We're making a double swoop for Adrien Silva and Slimani of Sporting Lisbon. Would be a great window if we got that done.

Oh and fuck Southampton! Boufal confirmed.

 

[JoshBCFC]

Burnley reportedly interested in Kodija.

 

[Luc@]

Southampton just signed Boufal, one of the best players in Fifa 16.

 

[xpto999]

We're making a double swoop for Adrien Silva and Slimani of Sporting Lisbon. Would be a great window if we got that done.

I doubt you'll get both. They are both very inflated at the moment, but it seems that almost all english clubs are swimming in money now.
In any case according to the media here, Slimani is a matter of details and Sporting are reluctant to let go Adrien Silva. Having already sold João Mário to Inter for 45M € and with the Slimani transfer they won't be desperate to sell.

 

[JimJams]

Adrien Silva has already confirmed the move. Thats come out of nowhere really. The Slimani deal is least likely because we cant agree a fee.


Anyway I came in here to say Wilshere of the Jack variety is going to be allowed to leave Arsenal on loan.
Not before time.

 

[Nath]

Wenger sending Wilshere out on loan.

Makes sense.

 

[JimJams]

Good work Nath.

 

[snortingfrogs]

Liverpool have accepted a £6m bid for Spanish winger Luis Alberto from Serie A club Lazio, according to Sky sources.

Lazio will pay £4.3m up front, with an additional £1.7m due to Liverpool if certain criteria are met. There is also a 30 per cent sell-on clause in the deal.

The 23-year-old attacker will now travel to Rome to finalise personal terms in readiness for the new season.

 

[JoshBCFC]

Joe Hart is set to have a medical ahead of a loan move to Torino

 

[AFCB_Mark]

Wilshere would do well to leave England and get a loan elsewhere, particularly Spain, as I think he'd do well there. It'd be good experience for him and England, and perhaps he'll manage to stay fit for more than 5 minutes in a slightly less crazy league.

 

[Abertawe]

He'd stay fit under a less crazy manager, the league ain't the issue. Strange decision to loan him, makes me wonder if something has happened...

 

[JoshBCFC]

Loic Remy has apparently agreed with Palace to join them on loan

 

[G-Dragon]

Lazar Markovic to Newcastle.

 

[Stevencc]

Lazar Markovic to Newcastle.

On loan I assume. I remember you guys calling him the Serbian Messi so I doubt you'll be selling him.

 

[Luc@]

Hart is the most overrated goalkeeper in modern football, he will be perfect for that ridiculous team.

 

[AFCB_Mark]

Hull and Lyon being widely linked with Maxi Gradel, which would be weird as he signed a new 4 year deal in the summer. Either a lot of media are collectively parroting one bullshit rumour, or there is something in it.

Would be gutted to lose him, as mental and inconsistent as he is, he's a match winner and with his history here he feels like 'our' crazy lad. As daft as that sounds in modern football.

 

[Super_horns]

Kenedy signed on loan now - got a few spare defenders going if anyone wants one?

 

[Ali Tajaldeen]

Been off this site for a while, so there is alot to catch up with. Heres everything I know with Chelsea's transfer rumors.

Ins-
Marcus Alonso 97% complete
Brozovic 64% complete
Ricardo Rodriguez 17% complete
De Vrij 14% complete
James Rodriguez 5% complete

Outs-
Kenedy; Watford loan 99% complete
Cuadrado; back to Juve 85% complete
Cesc; whoever the hell wants him 2% complete
Zouma; Schalke loan 0.0000000000001% complete

Not really excited about these transfers, but its something different I guess. I can't complain because of our three outta three wins, but if we stay like this, players won't really have that extra motivation of working hard to keep their spots later on this season.

Also, I don't think we're going for the right players, other than Brozovic and De Vrij, but its difficult to get them. Should've went for a players like Arias of PSV, Nastastic of Schalke and attempt to revive his career, and recall Musonda and Christensen from loan! Two year loans are so stupid.

Players like Traore, Kenedy, Abraham, Kalas, Baba, and Ake should have been fighting for the first team rather than go out on loan, they are as good as anyone on the team if they just have some chemistry with their teammates. Whenever I see them playing, they rarely get the ball as the other players form a bunch of triangles together and neglecting the youngsters.

Lastly, Chelsea have so much players on loan that they could make three different teams with the players on loan, I just don't understand why they don't sell them and get a buy back clause, could've used it for Thorgan Hazard, Lukaku, De Bruyne, Salah, Josh McEachren, and more. The only good things we did this transfer window is get Kante and Batshuayi, but I think the board had nothing to do with that. Conte is the reason Kante signed, and Hazard and Courtois are the reason Batshuayi signed. The board is so stubborn, every time they get a gamble wrong, they loan him out until people forget he exists, and when they get it right, its too early and they decide to sell the player. I really don't get it, its frustrating. We might go and get Brozovic and Marcus Alonso, but they aren't that much of an upgrade. We're meant to be one of the best in the world and we are going for two players with 'potential' instead of players who are the best in their position.

Yes, I'm very jealous of United, and yes, I really have Jose for this transfer window.

EDIT: After I typed this, I saw a bunch of Chelsea pages posting about a potential return of David Luiz back to Chelsea. I think the chances are below 1%, but if somehow, a miracle happens, I'd be over the moon. Not only is he unbeatable on his day, but he would make the team so much closer and would make everyone love being there. When we had him last time, the combination of him and Drogba won us the Champions League. Their passion drove the rest of the team to the title. Also, when we lost both of them, we finished 10th. Imagining a duo of Zouma and Luiz is just too much, and then Kante infront of them? We would 100% win the league.

 

[JimJams]

How the hell do you judge a transfer as 64% complete?

I really don't get the Zouma rumour.



But I can rap.

 

[Ali Tajaldeen]

How the hell do you judge a transfer as 64% complete?

the chances I believe Chelsea have of signing him. Its pretty random, I know.

I really don't get the Zouma rumour.

If you mean why its 0.000001%, its because I really don't think it will happen, and I really don't want it to happen. If you don't get it because it would be sooooooo stupid of Chelsea to loan him out when he is one of the best defenders in the league, then, I'd agree with ya.

 

[Leewilson]

According to Jim White's twitter, Chelsea have bid £30+ for David Luiz to return.

He's awful.

 

[G-Dragon]

At least Neville will have some fun on Monday Night football.

 

[JimJams]

Yeah the latter. He was your best defender before his injury.

 

[Ali Tajaldeen]

According to Jim White's twitter, Chelsea have bid £30+ for David Luiz to return.

He's awful.

I am seeing this more and more now, and I am trying so hard to not get hyped because all transfer rumors look all set and done but after a few hours they just die off, but Luiz is the type of player everyone enjoys having at the club. He makes everyone happy and when in form, he is a rock. Luiz be worth every penny if he does return. I'd even get him for 60 million. Just his passion and energy is worth at least 60 million, and then his speed and defensive ability is also incredible. I just think he is the complete package and is a must have. Yes, he does slip up alot, but I'd take him over Ivanovic and Cahill any day. They slip up way more than he does, and they aren't even as good. The only problem I have is when Zouma is back from injury, it will be so difficult to pick only two defenders out of Zouma, Terry, and Luiz. Might turn into a 3 at the back because of how tough the decision will be.

Yes, I know, 'This kid just explained how good of an addition Luiz will be for Chelsea in a whole paragraph and they probably won't sign him'. Like I said, really hyped, even if there is a better chance of Diego Costa playing a whole game without hitting someone.
