  • Hulk – Ready to Leave Porto and Join Chelsea

    Maybe it was all about waiting for the Olympic tournament to be over, so he can fully concentrate on bringing a gold medal back to Brazil. Hulk had a good tournament, but failed at the finish line, losing to Mexico 1-2 in the final. Now he feels ready to move on, leave Porto and join a Premier League team, probably Chelsea.

  • Tottenham Looking for Goalkeeprs – Julio Cesar? Hugo Lloris?

    Trying to keep Luka Modric isn’t all the Tottenham are doing this summer. Chasing goalkeepers, feeling that reliable yet not too extraordinary Brad Friedel, already 41, is also part of the off-season. Hugo Lloris seems unreachable and too expensive, but Julio Cesar isn’t.

  • FC Barcelona – Alex Song Coming or Not?

    Again with Barcelona, again another Arsenal player. This time no one with an actual connection to the club. “Just” Alex Song, the 24 year old Cameroonian midfielder, who’s mostly been talked about by several Barca players, which means that despite all of Tito Vilanova’s denials, they’re probably planning to make a bid for the player.

  • Manchester United – Still Chasing Robin van Persie

    It’s been relatively quiet on the Van Persie front in recent days. He never announced anything, but the Dutch striker seems to be happy with the way things are going in Arsenal and their signings (and future ones) this summer, which hasn’t stopped Manchester United from trying to sign the Premier League’s top scorer last season.

  • Neymar – How Much is he Worth Now?

    Nothing has really changed during the Olympic games. Neymar was an excellent player before them and regardless of whether Brazil win the Olympic gold by beating Mexico in the final or finish with silver, the young striker is the biggest name in Brazilian football at the moment and its most sought after talent.

  • Athletic Bilbao – Hanging on to Fernando Llorente & Javi Martinez

    The two most sought after Spanish player this summer both come from the same club that isn’t in the business of selling their players, despite the big offers. Fernando Llorente and Javi Martinez have both made an impression on Europe’s biggest clubs over the last couple of years, but Athletic Bilbao are still trying to hold on to the Spanish internationals.

  • Real Madrid – No More Luka Modric, Just Axel Witsel

    The Luka Modric ordeal is nearly over, with no real resolution. Real Madrid made a final €30 million ‘take it or leave it’ offer to Tottenham and were rejected once again, which will now probably turn their full attention to Benfica’s Belgian midfielder, Axel Witsel.

  • Liverpool – Setting a High Price for Daniel Agger

    While Liverpool have extended Luis Suarez’ contract to keep Juventus away from him and trying to Joe Allen from Swansea at the same time, they’ve also set a price for Daniel Agger, the man Manchester City are desperatly trying to sign, getting rejected again and again.

  • Leandro Damiao – Soon a Tottenham Player

    You make more news these days by being involved in some transfer rumors to a Premier League club than by scoring two goals in the Olympics semifinal, and as impressive as Leandro Damiao of Brazil has been throughout the Olympic tournament, his move from Internacional to Tottenham is a bit more interesting.

  • Juventus – From Robin van Persie to Luis Suarez

    Robin van Persie has done the unthinkable. He decided he’ll stay with Arsenal and probably step away from his transfer demands, which changed a lot of projections for a few big clubs in Europe, including Juventus who now turn away their attention from the Dutch striker towards Luis Suarez of Liverpool.
