It's in Marca. Apparently he went to a clinic in Munich and had it there with their representatives present.

Kallstrom to Sevilla?

And Marca now have their "Altas y Bajas" page up, which is always useful as a way to keep track of not just incoming and outgoing players, but also all those who a club is interested in:

I can't see that happening. Sevilla rarely play with an attacking midifielder. Unless they're looking to get rid of either Renato or Maresca.

ATM they're looking to sign Squillaci as they don't know how long Javi Navarro will be out for.

He can play on the flank as i think he has done before. im pretty sure i have seen him play there for Sweden.

Has Aragones to Fenerbahce been reported in Spain? If true could explain Guiza move.

Yes, Aragones to Fenerbahce was a "Marca exclusive" a few days back. What you suggest makes sense

Still no word on the transfer fee for Guiza, though his contract offer is 3m euros a year for 5 years.

Rumours:

Zabaleta from Espanyol to Valencia
Riera to Olympiakos (joining Valverde)
Caneira to Espanyol
PSG interested in Kameni

Zabaleta is apparently close to signing for us. Ive not seen him play much this season, how has he done and would be be a good signing ? Would he best be suited to play DM or right mid ?

He's played mostly as right full back for Espanyol this year.

A few more confirmed signings:

Koffi Ndri Romaric (Sevilla - €8m.)

Masoud Shojaei (Osasuna - undisclosed)

Míchel (Flamengo - undisclosed)

Is that Sevilla guy the same as Konko?

No, this is Romaric guy is a midfielder from Cote d'Ivoire. He'll replace Keita. Konko is the right back to replace Dani Alves.

So according to Del Nido, one more CB (probably Squillaci).

Funny how all the Luis Fabiano rumours have died down

Yeah, they should have sold Fabiano in January.

Will be interesting to see how the Palop situation turns out.

But for now they are shaping up to look like:


------------------Palop

Konko----Escude----Squillaci(?)-----Navarro


Navas-----Romaric-----Poulsen-----D. Capel

-----------Kanoute---L. Fabiano

He signed a new contract didnt he.

- Spurs are willing to bid 25m euros for Villa...don't think that will be enough. I think they'd be better off going for Podolski if Berbatov leaves for Man. utd.

- Mallorca are interested in Pedro Mendes from Portsmouth

- Atletico may have a surprise signing up their sleeve...they are interested in signing Baptista from Madrid

AS are reporting that Atletico's "surprise" is Diego. But I'd be happy if they bought the Beast.

Adrian Gonzalez signs with Getafe.

Sinama Pongolle should be a done deal very soon. And Fabiano Eller has rescinded his contract with Atletico

Good to see.
anyone know what happened with Deportivos Adrian who was their big player in U-20 WC in 2007?

And Ze Castro wants out!

Balboa to Benfica for 6m euro.

Pity we're shite at buying players

Jaime wrote:Balboa to Benfica for 6m euro.

What are you thinking, Benfica!

Hold on!

They still want Soldado, so that will probably be ~ 15m€.

It's unbelievable how you manage to sell Balboa for 6m, Soldado for maybe 9m, and consistently get between 2-4m for $h!t players like Jurado, while we've just gone and sold Giovani to a cash-rich English club for 5m euros and will probably give Crosas to Lyon for a tiny or no fee.

Pedja!!!

Diego Milito’s agent claims Manchester City have launched a bid for the Real Zaragoza striker.

The Blanquillos have been relegated to the Spanish second division following a terrible season and a number of players are expected to leave Zaragoza, including goal-machine Milito.

The 29-year-old has been a target for Tottenham, but his agent Adrian Faija has revealed that Mark Hughes’ City are the only club that have approached the attacker.

The Spanish press have stated an £8 million bid is being discussed by both clubs for the Argentina international, while Hughes is trying to strengthen a squad that will play in the Uefa Cup next season.

“Manchester City are the only club to have placed a bid with my clients' employers,” Faija revealed.
