The Official Summer Transfer Rumours and News 2019

Source close to Wilfried Zaha says doubts about whether Arsenal can afford to sign him. Palace have rejected £40m Arsenal bid & they value Zaha at closer to £100m. Palace would not be interested in taking players as part of swap deal. Would only ever happen as last resort.

Zaha is a midcarder

I am now a diehard Mike Ashley fan ffs

with lukaku having it away on his toes will manure play the rash up front or Martial.

I imagine if we sell Lukaku we'll be signing a replacement, but I guess I wouldn't be shocked if Ole starts one of those two (pls no)

can't imagine who we can sign though, not many good names out there

supposedly we already turned down a straight swap

I'd be tempted to take him tbh but I guess at least Lukaku is a professional

Sean Longstaff is not interested in what he sees as a sideways move to Manchester United.

On the bright side, he can only get better again, it can hardly get worse. Who knows, maybe he can find some form at some point in the future? He's a capable player after all.

Lukaku transfer. Inter sporting director are at Manchester tomorrow to break the deadlock

Robespierre and Firenze 'd find an agreement easily, Ausilio and Woodward are going to make same?

The clown is going to be next Juve CF tbh

Arsenal have reportedly won the jog for hardly rated 18 year old Willy Saliba today, beating out the likes of Évian Thonon and AS Nancy to the defender's signature. The Player has opted to remain on loan at current club St. Etienne for the upcoming season, noting the Gunners horrific record when it comes to developing young talent in recent years.

AC Milan's CEO Ivan Gazidis has praised the clubs fanbase after their positive reaction at signing a bunch of D+ players on the cheap, despite seeing bitter rivals Internazionale making big money, ambitious moves in the transfer window. He says the shift in mentality reflects a positive change and that fans no longer hold onto past glories. 'The team will hope to repay the faith with a deep Copa Italia run, provided we get a kind draw.' [CalcioMercato]

FC Barcelona will wrap up the signing of long-time target Antoine Griezmann in the coming days, despite rumours that the imp of Catalonia Lionel Messi has been vocal in his displeasure at the move. A source within the club said that the friction between the players stems from Griezmann not passing the most overpowered weapons on Fortnite to Messi during a lengthy Squad session on the game last summer. Club coach, Ernesto Valverde, was apparently adamant that the club sign the Frenchman though, citing his impressive record on the game and his hope that he can carry  the coach through the next season pass of the game, which launches in a months time for 1200 VBUCKS.

Manchester United have again reiterated that they will not sell wantaway power-walking sensation Paul Labia Pogba for anything less than £250 million + Real Madrid's Theo Zidane amid continued interest from Los Numptys. The 26 year olds sleazy super-agent, Mino Raiola, is believed to be eager to seal a deal in the coming weeks, so that he can pocket a hefty comission and go on his holidays. Madrid president Florentino Perez believes a deal is impossible, with manager Zinedine Zidane refusing to allow his son Theo to leave the club, proclaiming the 17 year old is the next Messi. However, according to Sky Sources, renowned Real Madrid and PSG super-fan, former player and attorney, sportsczy, is believed to be taking matters into his own hands and is willing to sacrifice his loved ones to the old gods with a crimson behelit to make his dream reality.

BREAKING:  Football-Parmesano today uncovered a sinister plot by Juventus staff to erase their fans memories at the unveiling of imminent new signing Matthijs De Ligt. Reporters were tipped off by a job advertisement that the club recently posted online looking for the Men-In-Black, or other individuals with access to memory altering technology who were willing to loan it with an option to buy. It is believed club heirachy sought to make supporters forget that they were supposed to have the future best CB in the world, Daniele Rugani, on their hands all along. The Italian has struggled for playing time in recent seasons, with even a wheelchair-ridden Barzagli prefered to him.

A Club spokesperson however rubbished the allegations, claiming only 0.3% of the fanbase even remembered who Rugani was anyway so it would be a waste of money. [Football-Parmesano]

West Ham want Higuain (GDM)

Juve ask 40 mln

what a decline

Higuain isn't worth 40M in 2019 tbh

West Ham are desperate and I guess Juve would take a payment plan (like they tried to get Maxi Gomez with but were rejected)

I can't see Higuain accepting it though.

I think mentally Sanchez checked out a long time ago. Even before he joined us, during his last season at Arsenal. I'd be surprised if he even gets enough chances to show an improvement. Gonna be a black-hole of wages until like 2022.

"power-walking sensation"

He did, yeah, he was behaving, and playing, borderline autistic in his last Arsenal season.
I wonder what exactly has been going on though. I wonder why. I wonder whether he can't fit in somehow.

Roma have troubles in 2019, but always better than Hammers imo
(after it, Roma are looking for Mariano Diaz)
