The generic transfer thread

[Simon's Church]

Kolo Toure to Liverpool on a free this summer, apparently. Will be the first player over the age of 24 that Rodgers has signed for the club.

He's been pretty shit for about 5 years now, didn't think a mid table club would come in for him tbh.

Stefan Jovetic rumoured to be joining Arsenal in a £24m deal

Is he "that" good? (genuine question)

He was very good at Arsenal, signed for City for £12m or so, but has struggled to find his way back into the side since his drugs ban.

He's a quality defender, and as a free transfer, and with Carragher retiring, it's a bit of a no-brainer for Liverpool really.

Yes

Paris Saint-Germain have opened negotiations with Wayne Rooney with a view to bringing the England international to the French capital this summer, L'Equipe reported on Wednesday.

Monaco have signed Porto midfielders Joao Moutinho, 26 and James Rodriguez, 21, for a combined fee of £60m.

Bloody hell. Moutinho was Spurs' number one target, they won't be pleased about that. Why is there so much money in the French game all of a sudden?

Just PSG & Monaco, they both got new very rich owners 2 years ago

Monaco have signed Porto midfielders Joao Moutinho, 26 and James Rodriguez, 21, for a combined fee of £60m.

Being reported that there was a heavy sell on clause (around 25%) for Moutinho that Sporting Lisbon were in line for, the combined €70M deal was agreed at €69M for Rodriguez and €1M for Moutinho to help Porto keep the money.

Good signing. He wont get their hearts racing but he's a decent defender. Better than Liverpool bringing in Toure.

I really like him, think he could do very well for them. £9M being reported.

It's a sign of Liverpool's ambition I'd say signing a player that can't get into the first team of a club regularly competing in the Champions League.

I thought she was in space fighting the Reapers?

I think he's been massivley hyped up, another Arsene signing who's better at passing than defending.

Not if Kaiden Alenko has anything to say in the matter.

[YateleyRoyal]

Interesting if Williams does end up at the Arse - Mertesacker and Koscielny had a great end to the season and Vermaelen's been linked with Napoli, so this signing would probably be the end of him at the Emirates.
