Miguel Veloso

[RussellYid]

"Just heard Spurs are trying to get Miguel Veloso from Sporting (get away from our youngsters!!) in a last minute bid of 25 million euros + Rocha. Have you heard anything? Keep Rocha anyway..."

My mate in Portugal just facebooked me this. She's spot on quite alot of the time with regards to Portugese transfers. For instance, she told me about Rocha AGES before he came here.

I know nothing about Veloso. But it seems alot of money! Hope she's wrong!

A defensive midfielder? How exciting!

Ooh finally a defensive midfielder, will be interesting if we have put a bid in. Although he's quite young if were going to spend that much on him he must be in first team contention straight away.

I would be excited if I knew anything about him. I'm waiting for someone else to get excited, then I'm going to join in :grin:

 

[ChubbSpur]

Interesting! Will keep my eyes peeled.

I think your friend might have read about it from this portugese paper.

Edit :-

That article was from like 3 weeks ago and says that sporting rejected 25 mill and were holding out for 30. Im guessing that where Rocha comes in to try and sweeten the deal.

He scores good freekicks to!

€25 million + Rocha for player who isn't even sure starter for them :think:

Would be nice but i can see Kevin Boateng playing a major part in our cm this season. We got 4 very different ones at the mo

Huddlestone Deep Creative
Zokora Energy and Breaks up play
Jenas Box to box i spose
Boateng I think he's a tough strong creative midfielder

No real defensive midfielder so this guy could be good although i don't know how all these players are gonna fit on the bench.

If facebook says it, it must be true.

 

[joey.leone]

30 million?!?!

where the hell would we have that kind of money if this was even true, we'd have to sell berbs or something..

 

[Yid-ol]

30 million Euros, so would be about 20-25 million on just a guess

and then its 25 million Euros plus Rocha, so maybe 17million? someone will correct me with the correct conversion from Euros to Pounds :lol:

and we have alot of cash able to throw about (well not throw, invest wisley into players) we are a rich club that is run very well

 

[doowaa]

I've heard nothing of this guy until now. But he looks good on Youtube so he must be worth 30 mil at least. Although didn';t the original poster say it was 25 mil euros?

 

[InOffMeLeftShin]

Left footed too. Still 25 million euros on him. 25 million euros more on quaresma. 50 million euros to portugal in one day? Some people have been smoking some very funky stuff of they think those kind of deals are going to happen on the last day.

Probably better than Tribal Football. Or the Sun.

Lay of Zokora start on JJ if u must

 

[Steve776]

Just got a txt from mate in portugal saying its all over the news he will sign for us today.

 

[doowaa]

He'll probably get off the plane at Heathrow and be met by Eggert and offered wages of a billion pounds a week to sign for the spammers.
