So, SPORT is running an exclusive saying that Munir El Haddadi would like to join us. Could this be the mystery player from La Liga that has been mentioned in earlier ITK?

Stay tuned.

Just signed a new contract for Barca :facepalm:

We're not going to be taken over. I just don't see who will benefit from it. Joe is on his last legs and has plenty of money and Levy is a genuine fan and is relatively young for a chairman. I really don't see the ownership changing hands until Levy is a lot older.


They might just want to sell shares to reduce their risk and get more fund for the stadium and transfer market? JL and DL reducing their stake to 51% while still controlling the club. No point taking the risk alone if there is a third party willing to pay the 10M/share.

This should increase the value of the club as well....

Is Gards still considered ITK in regards to his posts being put in here?

Gards ‏@Gards44 16h16 hours ago
as always! It's never been on the cards! Oliver Burke, he is the one! Tough to get though but been watching him for a while!!

Calls the Yarmolenko rumour: Utter Rubbish



Please delete if Gards isn't still held in a high esteem and accept my apologies...

I see that I'm getting som e less than positive ratings. Is this sort of speculations generally frowned upon, against the rules or is it just that I'm a prick?

Normally Media rumours aren't for this thread but the players transfer thread instead..

Make a player thread if it's a link that's come from the media.

There are some basic rules for this thread in the transfer rumour section. Mind you, they are seldom followed! :whistle: ;)

I'll be happy enough with that.
New Keeper. Lopez.
New AM that offers an alternative to what we have. Nkoudou.
Guesswork, but 3rd signing may be the previously talked about (ITK30 & 31), plus another ITK snippet I saw somewhere that doesn't appear on the RO thread, (not strictly an AM, but more AM/CM), perhaps Kovacic or similar? I quite like Brozovic for the same role, but he doesn't fit in with the Spanish based theme.

So Lopez, N'Koudou and a 'proper signing' whatever that means.
Keeper and French kid(Lopez and N'Koudou) are probably more for the future while a proper signing indicates someone of real quality that will help bolster our team in the immediate term and the future(hopefully a CM, AM or someone that can play both)

Everyone knows he is going to Marseille on Loan
Yes, but that doesn't mean we dont want him as @Gbspurs has implied. It has been well documented that Poch does want to keep him but his hand is being forced in order to obtain another.

At this point I am very dubious if we will manage to sell Chadli and Nabil. Not because we won't get offers for ether, but rather those offers won't be in line with Levy's valuation.

I know what you mean but I've always been surprised how quickly deals get done at the end of the window. Presumably because a lot of the groundwork has been done and the imminent closing of the window forces the issue.
I think both Bentaleb and Chadli will go.

Why?..he seemed quite willing to take a hit last summer when we had a clear out.
Don't get me wrong, we won't be getting our pants pulled down but as long as the offers are somewhere close I think they'll both be off.
