Look, Man Utd didn’t want Thiago anyway all right? When they’ve signed Marouane Fellaini AND Cesc Fabregas you’ll all see how rich and serious they are, so wipe that smirk off your face. Speaking of Cesc, Arsenal have first refusal on him but won’t take it up. And why would they? Abou Diaby will be fit one day and be just like a new signing…
What will Arsenal do if the Daily Mirror is correct and Real Madrid offer Gonzalo Higuain plus cash for Luis Suarez?
Christian Benteke doesn’t much fancy going back to Aston Villa and is hoping Tottenham will step up their pursuit of him this week so he doesn’t have to. I wouldn’t be packing my bags just yet if I were him.
The Alvaro Negredo deal doesn’t look like happening but Man City are on the verge of signing Stevan Jovetic in a £28m deal from Fiorentina.
Steve Bruce reckons that any deal for Nicklas Bendtner would be too expensive. He’s not wrong. And he’s not being shy elsewhere either, Hull are after Danny Graham and Adel Taarabt, and have just signed Steve Harper on a free.
And West Brom could lose Graham Dorrans to West Ham who are lurking with a £3m bid.
