Roberto Soldado Signs

[Gedson100]

Did Andre say anything relevant after our game?

 

[Francis Gibbs]

Might be kidding myself but I really think this is going to be done so more concerned about when we can actually get him on the pitch as he had no preseason at all

His pre-season was scheduled to start from today anyway.

 

[TheGreenLily]

I live with a Liverpool fan, I hope to God, we get Soldado.

Just the player we really need.

So what is the latest?

Exactly he is at least 2-3 weeks behind us and not sure he will be training if a move is imminent

ITK sounds positive, we've got the money lined up, and they reckon once Valencia's replacement is sorted they seem to think it should go through

Good, as he is banging on that he is going to Liverfool. And I am sitting just sitting he quietly, hoping that for the first time, they have not missed the boat on a quality on striker.

Fingers crossed, legs crossed, balls crossed and if A&C allows it, a few his bunches crossed as well.

 

[Lufti]

If it goes through I'm definitely going for a wander round RAWK, Arse Mania and others to see what they're saying. Should be good for a laugh

Well I think one of the ITKs said he has no interest in going to Liverpool so if he doesn't go to us it could be likely he doesn't move at all perhaps

Any news on whether he has or not? As this would be a massive indicator.

 

[3Dnata]

I would have posted but last night on Foroche someone posted Soldado to Liverpool for £30 million done- clearly balls because it's not been picked up on RAWK, other than that at the Valencia end their very worried about their replacements, the prospect of having to sell Banega next season to stay afloat and a poster called Coverdale has got a very interesting signature which would go straight into Manwhore's mansion.

As far as I'm aware, it was only fitness tests and other checks today. Apparently that's what Valencia do when players come back to the club after holidays.

 

[LeSoupeKitchen]

Just giving them the tip?

Unlikely, a proof of funds is used to back up all the bullshit you're telling the other side

Yeah but Levy is saying, "I know its not quite what you want but all I have to do is push this giant red button and your debt worries are over".

Going to take a bit more than just Soldado to fix Valencia's financial woes. I think they are Leedsesque with their debt.

 

[Spurs1960]

So depends on Valencia's replacement as to when we'll hear? What's the latest on Fred to Valencia?

Their replacement is Helder Postiga from Real Zaragoza for EUR 4 million. He was on a EUR 1 million salary there. That deal is dbasically done and Zaragoza want it finalised asap, which allows Soldado to go.

 

[Spurs1960]

Fred has supposedly said he will join if the deal is right for Fluminese

They can't afford his wages

WE ALL DO!

They need EUR 14 million to balance the books this season, doesn't clear the debt though.

 

[Spurs1960]

Cheers.

There was a picture of his doing his tests in the local paper and, although I haven't found it, apparently a quote saying he didn't want to train with Valencia having told them he wants to leave.

If I was Levy I'd end the arrangement we have with Real Madrid (their tapping up of Bale must be illegal surely?) and try and form a new one as part of this deal with Valencia. Offer to help them with player loans etc. with a first option on players moving between the clubs. If they are that bad financially it might work.

Maybe offer them Ade too as part of the deal, with us paying a part of his wage?
