Carrico Watch

[Elm Park Pasty]

Would presume that fact Carrico has gone to Portugal means the club haven't closed the door on him if a suitable deal is not agreed, either that or the players wanted him along to know where the best haunts were.

Can imagine Carrico sitting there with the others, as Nigel walks in and goes 'Right lads pre-season training in Portugal, Lisbon in fact!!!' All the players laugh and smile at the thought of a week in the sun, except Carrico, who sits at the back thinking, 'Rub it in, why oxf*rd don't you??!!'

Translation is pretty terrible. But Sevilla confirming the move on their OS

Was just in the middle of posting. Not sure what to say to that.

I'd say let the oxf*rd rot. Seems disrespectful spouting how desperate he is in wanting to leave Reading.

[The Prisoner]

Can't speak Spanish, but did they sign him from Crystal Palace?

who is going to Palace?

One of Sevilla players for 2 mil

[Elm Park]

Sevilla have confirmed midfielder Jose Campana is on the verge of a move to Crystal Palace. The Spanish club have given Campana permission to hold talks and undergo a medical at Palace after agreeing a €2million (£1.7m) fee for his services.

[LightwaterRoyal]

I speak Spanish, it only says they will be signing Carrico, no quotes from anybody though.

Campana wanted to leave, he is flying over for a medical at Palace. They said that they were positive he was going to be a star at Sevilla and that he was a guaranteed starter this season but rejected a new contract. He is a product of their academy and they wish him luck only for that reason.

[LightwaterRoyal]

Club have just confirmed on Facebook that Carrico has arrived in Sevilla for a medical ahead of a loan move.

Wonder if Sevilla's medical team make thee same mistakes.

[LoyalRoyal22]

What a joke. How do we benefit from this? I am convinced he will be a success at Sevilla.

[Royalcop]

Well I for one hope we draw Sevilla in the 2015/16 Champions League so I can boo him heartily on his return to the 70,000 seater Mad Stad.

[SpaceCruiser]

Getting something wrong doesn't automatically make someone incompetent. Do you have to put much effort into being this dense and contrary, or does it come naturally?

Well, he did write "He must of" - That, to me, automatically gets a dismissal. Not worth wasting time writing a response to.

[Royal Ginger]

Confirmed by the club on Twitter.

[Unbelievable Jeff]

it does make you wonder why he is leaving on loan to a top Spanish side, came from a top Portuguese side and couldn't get a game for us....strange move

[ScottishRoyal]

I think it's a real shame that he's leaving as I would loved to have seen what a fully fit Carrico is capable of. As others have mentioned, to have come from Sporting Lisbon and then get a loan move to Sevilla after a season of no football must mean he has some decent talent.

The knee injuries did not help clearly in that he was never fully fi to play. Having moved from a foreign country aged 24, to then not play and instead be stuck in the physio room must've made his transition to English football and the UK more generally a difficult and depressing process. When he did play though we were always told that he was a midfielder, despite playing his whole career, save for a few cameo roles in the middle, as a centre back. This is a line the clubs press office still use in their official communications.

What I would love to see is a fully fit and integrated Carrico given a chance at centre back. In the new world that is a Reading FC passing game, surely Nigel Adkins would love a footballing centre back with the ability, experience and leadership qualities that Carrico possesses. In his first interview at the club he stated that he was a hard tackling ball winner so would not be out of place in the ruff and tumble Championship. So send him out on loan rather than sell him, especially to a side playing at a far higher standard, just seems a terribly sad waste. Emerse Fae flopped because of a terrible attitude, Matejovsky found the pace and physical elements of English football to much, Carrico unfortunately just hasn't been given a chance when fit.

[WAZZOCK]

Yeah, or he comes back after our promotion as a rejuvenated player and slots straight back in.

[LightwaterRoyal]

Is he contracted for another 2 seasons? If we go straight back up he could stay and in the mean time we have his wages off our books.

[maffff]

2015, can be extended by a year

[Royal Ginger]

I think it's highly unlikely that he'll come back other than to complete some formal transfer necessities.
