Real Madrid can be real flaky bitches at times. Word is that Carlo Ancelotti isn’t all that fussed on signing Gareth Bale anyway. The cynical among you might suspect this is all a ploy to drive the price down, but I’m going to look on the bright side and await tomorrow’s inevitable ‘BALE TO MAN UTD’ stories. Quite looking forward to them as it happens.
The Voice and Black Eyed Peas star Will.i.an could be set for a £35m switch from Anzhi Machakalalalakakakalalaka to either Spurs or Liverpool. Boom Boom Pow.
Arsenal will be furious at news of Luiz Gustavo declaring his willingness to move to north London. If they’re not careful they might actually have to spend some cash. However, separate reports suggest that Bayern will only let one of him and Liverpool target Diego Contento leave this summer, though it’s probably not the best time for the Gunners to be asking the Scousers a favour.
Newcastle look set to miss out on Batefimbi Gomis but have lined up Genk striker Jelle Vossen as an alternative. Crystal Palace have targeted Darren Bent, another player who didn’t quite make it to Tyneside, for a season-long loan deal.
Man City are considering moves for Schalke’s Kyriakos Papadopoulos and Napoli captain Paolo Cannavaro after missing out on Pepe. And Samuel Eto’o is interested in a move to Chelsea, I’ll bet he is.
