Van Persie as good as gone from arsenal

5Live, not normally ones to put out guesses, were saying today that it was 'very likely' that RVP would be on his way after the Euro's.

Only if Arsenal decide to sell, it's not RVPs decision

Where to?

[Mr Angry]

Junior Hoilet appears to heading for Borussia Monchengladbach...

This move now appears to be off, and instead he is going to Galatasary.

Sounds like his agent is struggling to find him any club as good as he thinks he should be at!

Just hope that doesn’t cause Rhodes’ price to go up.

wow, quality signing for PSG

They'll have a good team this coming year

[No Fixed Abode]

West Ham have confirmed experienced goalkeeper Jussi Jaaskelainen has agreed personal terms with the club.

I would be very surprised if Dortmund's team was just allowed to be split up like this though.

Happened last year, they can't afford to compete with English, Spanish, Italian clubs and PSG

Eh ... what?

Sahin went to Madrid. Who else of significance left Dortmund last summer? One first team player leaving is hardly a team splitting up.

Ok maybe not split up but if you'd told anyone last summer that they would lose Sahin, and Goetze and Barrios would only play half their games then their fans would've been predicting a midtable finish, not a record points haul and retaining the title.

They've got plenty of money from Kagawa and Barrios leaving (the latter I don't think they'dve sold if they were expecting all their other stars to leave this summer) so they''re under no pressure to sell cheap and if those players do want to move elsewhere they'll have the funds to replace them with quality. But I don't think they'll be scared of losing their best players because its happened before and they've replaced them.

If they sell Kagawa (done) and Błaszczykowski this summer then they'll still have a midfield of Gündoğan, Kehl, Bender, Großkreutz and Goetze which is more than competitative. Lewandowski would be the biggest loss seeing as they've sold Barrios and pretty much don't have anyone else up front, but I expect they'll be signing at least one striker anyway with Barrios gone (and to a lesser extent Zidan). So I can see a few of those leaving, but all three plus Kagawa and Goetze does seem unlikely

Silva pulls out of the deal. PSG getting all bitter and saying that he was just using them to get a better deal at Milan.

Reports this morning that Milan never accepted the deal.

[soggy biscuit]

All a bit weird that one. Galliani confirmed he went to France to discuss the deal and after said Silva is expected to leave.

Someone is playing someone there, I just can't work out who. Burlusconi is now banging on about how much money they are losing over this but they will do it for the fans etc so maybe it was Milan trying to win over their fans all along

Silva's agent unsurprisingly said this morning that he should be rewarded for all of this with an improved contract.

Does anyone know of a good twitter account that tracks European transfers?
