Lucho Gonzalez:

River Plate -> FC Porto for 6m
FC Porto -> Marseille for 24m
Marseille -> FC Porto for 3m


Porto

Bloody hell, I heard he wasn't doing massively well but that's ridiculous!

Lucho Gonzalez:

River Plate -> FC Porto for 6m
FC Porto -> Marseille for 24m
Marseille -> FC Porto for 3m

Some sites says Porto couldn't afford to pay what Marseille wanted so they agreed to pay 2M euro instead

He played his last game yesterday against Rennes and was the worst player on the pitch. Worth mention is he has wanted to leave the club for a while now.

Kenneth Zohore on loan to Fiorentina. His father is the cousin of Didier Drogba.

Moyes added: "If there was any news, I would give it to you. You will need to wait until midnight on Tuesday and then we will let you know what is happening.

"I didn't like it when I was a player and I kept hearing there were other centre-halves coming in to take my position. I wouldn't talk about players at other clubs."

Take note 'arry.

In short: 'we have no money to replace Hibbert'.

What can I say? T-Hib is a loyal servant.

On the subject Swedish second tier players going to England, Liverpool look like they're signing Kristoffer Nordfeldt. Young but sort of dodgy goalkeeper from Brommapojkarna. I have no idea why, I hope we play them when he's in goal at some point.

Milan re-enter talks for Tevez. He has to go today, so sick of hearing about him.

He's wanted to move since his house got done over by armed robbers last year. Fair enough like, even if OM haven't recouped as much as they could I'm sure I read over summer they'd respect his wishes afterall he's done pretty well for them.

Marseille -> FC Porto for FREE

A CUSTO ZERO! ajajajajajajajajajja

CSKA Moscow have signed some random dude I've never heard of from the Korean second division. Weird.

Pretty sure clubs see Asian footballers as instant upward pointing arrow on a merchandise sales chart. Corinthians have not long signed a Chinese guy and pretty much admitted he's only there as a marketing stunt.
Just found the article and the head of marketing for Corinthians advised to bring in "any old rubbish" from Asia to boost merch sales.

Should get yourself down to Copacabana beach Oldtype. Could wind up playing for a team in Rio.

Well, Koreans certainly aren't going to be buying CSKA Moscow shirts anytime soon as long as they have Satan on their books.

Their manager says he's "amazed that he's not playing for the Korean national team." Well yes, that might have something to do with the fact that he's never played in our top flight.

EDIT: apparently been registered for their CL squad. Maybe he's actually uh... good?

  I'm fully expecting Bolton shirt sales in Korea to go down to zero seeing as we've signed the Japanese Messi to (indirectly) replace LCY. Ah well, at least we've opened up another potential marketing opportunity 

[obviously not being serious, as both transfers were for football reasons]

You can't "go down" from zero to zero man.

That Cska one screams of Shinji Kagawa syndrome.

  Oh right - didn't realise he was a free agent.

Lots of rumors floating around regarding a trip that our DoF has reportedly made to London. Apparently, depending on the source, he has held talks for Bale or Van Persie.

Van Persie would be just what the doctor ordered (pity he isn't younger), but surely Arsenal would rather sell him to Spurs for a bag of crisps and a framed photo of Sol Campbell than us?

It's you or Man City really. Can't see him signing a new deal. He will only have 1 year left in the summer as well.

Depends on what Arsenal do this season. If they finish below 4th and end up having a trophyless season, he's off in the summer imo.

[Ketsbaia]

The way Barca play you could have Bale as a 'left back that isn't really a left back' to go with Dani Alves. When they go forward Busquets drops back and you've got an even more frightening team.
