Swap deal! The best thing about swap deals is that they always come through, no reason to believe Erik Lamela for Mario Balotelli won't be any different. And that may well just be the tip of Spurs' clearout-iceberg this summer; Hugo Lloris is still being linked with PSG, Roma want Jan Vertonghen and Etienne Capoue could be off to Inter.
It's looking like a busy one for Liverpool too, albeit with more of a buy!buy!buy! vibe than a sell!sell!sell! one. Say hello to Victor Valdes, Isco, Steven Caulker and Bojan Krkic, Reds fans.
Man Utd have added Marco Reus and Lucas Moura to their midfield wishlist and Nemanja Vidic could be replaced by Fiorentina's Stefan Savic, formerly of useless-at-City fame.
Speaking of useless City players, West Ham are keen on Jack Rodwell. Luke Shaw would probably do alright if he rocked up at the Etihad though. Pellegrini's interested, but so are Mourinho and Moyes.
AC Milan are looking to turn Adel Taarabt's loan move permanent, and pay £5m+ for the privilege. They're after Celtic keeper Fraser Forster too apparently, along with Real Madrid, and Barcelona, and Atletico Madrid, and Juventus... Let's leave it there shall we?
