    add that to Arsenal supposidly already having the Podolski deal done for around 10m and it seems clubs are getting started early this year. Any other deals rumoured to be already done?

    with the euros in june i am not surprised clubs are starting early in their summer signings. prices will be inflated after the tournament depending who has a good campaign.

    Montolivo is joining Milan on a free transfer, right? Also Bayern have signed M'gladbach defender Dante and it appears as though they're getting veteran striker Claudio Pizarro from Werder Bremen.

    Can see M'Vila being snapped up by Arsenal or Inter before the tournament starts and Barcelona going for Thiago Silva.

    Aside from that, I think PSG will be busy and Juve will certainly splash out €20m+ on a striker

    Talk of Everton making a bid for Clint Dempsey. Be a great signing but doubt we have the cash

    I'd like to see us get Kagawa as well as Podolski (which is pretty much done tbh). We need much better quality in the front 4.

    Selling Gervinho to D.I.D. as a 90,000w bulb would be nice too.

    Juve will unsuccesfully bid for Cavani and van Persie. It's hard to see who they will be able to get who is good enough.

    Jordi Alba will be a Barca player before the Euro's me thinks, also if Spurs don't get top 4, or CL football (which looks very likely considering everything), then I'd fancy them to make a bid for Bale. Modric will probably be gone too, where though is the question. If Chelsea get CL football then they'd have to be favouites, otherwise United are in with a shout.

    I hope, Kagawa stays with Borussia Dortmund. But no update yet from Germany about this matter.

    Just reading there on a German website, that Kagawa is not looking for a new contract, but that he has not signed somewhere else either. Everything hanging in the balance in the moment, but I won't be happy, if he is leaving Borussia Dortmund :confused:

    Borussia Dortmund sporting director Michael Zorc: Kagawa likely to leave the club.

    Kagawa: United have reportedly offered him GBP 96k per week, doubling Dortmund's offer. Not sure I believe that figure though.

    Meant to be a bit of hassle in the dressing room if the rumours are right, still 7m is some value!

    Liverpool will go for Soldado

    He's a decent player... I was harping on about him for ages hoping he would go to Liverpool after we were linked during Rafa's days, but he's stagnated at Bremen the last year and a half. Hoped he would take his talent to the next level but hasn't. Seems he's happy being the player he is, occasional flashes of brilliance before fading for weeks on end. Like Kess said in the LFC superthread, he doesn't look like he has the heart a lot of the time.

    ye dont need Jack Rodwell. if chelsea come in with a big of around 20million, ye should bite their hands off. would ye get Dempsey and maybe 2 low cost signings like Gibson and Jelavic for 20-25million?

    If I was a player I'd be on the phone to his agent hiring him really! He plays sh*t yet moves to a bigger team on more money for €8m.

    Not much hype about him. He is a quality player, not overrated at all. It will be interesting to see how he does in a more physical league.

    How good is Kagawa, he must be decent if he scores a goal ever 2 games and wins the league with Borussia but if you united sign him they wont solve there midfield problems, he seems to play just behind a sole striker, United should go for M;Vila or Martinez aswell, which of those two are better?

    i agree that there is some amount of s*it wrote in papers around transfers, but just because something doesnt happen, it doesnt mean its not true. just depends on the source and who is writing the article really.

    They solve different problems.

    I'd say Martinez is better but there's nothing in it really.

    Without disrespecting Everton fans, wouldn't Fulham to Everton be a sideways step for Dempsey, surely if he moves it will be to a bigger club?

    That's just because his current contract expires in 2013, with the possibility that he might leave on a free transfer, if he would stay another year in Dortmund.
