Football (soccer) Summer Transfers

Aston Villa have completed a £6.5m deal for Celtic midfielder Stilian Petrov.

Thomas Gravesen has revealed he has agreed a deal with Celtic
 
MANICHE SIGNS FOR ATLETICO MADRID! YAY! Good job, my son. The last thing you need is to be a benchwarmer. Atletico will be propelled to the Champions League.


Atletico made some pretty good transfers this summer AND they managed to keep their 2 biggest stars Maxi Rodriguez and, I know you love him, Fernando Torres.
Unless there wont be any chemistry and they crash, I think they will be in the top 4 this season.

Some of the bigger transfers they've had:
Aguero, Pernia, Musampa, Costinha, Seitaridis, Mista and Maniche.
 
Argentinian captain Juan Pablo Sorin has completed his move to Bundesliga outfit Hamburg

Serie A side Roma have clinched the signing of Tottenham Hotspur defender Rodrigo Defendi

Chievo Verona have landed Polish international Kamil Kosowski.

Portsmouth have completed the loan signing of young Portugal international Manuel Fernandes

Newcastle United have agreed a shock loan swoop for Manchester United's young striker Giuseppe Rossi
 
Andrew (Andy) Cole has joined Portsmouth from Manchester City.

James Milner is at this very moment in talks with Aston Villa on a 4 million pound move from Newcastle.

Hajduk Split midfielder Niko Kranjcar is having a medical in Zagreb with a view to a £3.5m move to Portsmouth.

On the management front Doncaster Rovers want Kevin Keeegan to take over from Dave Penny who suddenly resigned yesterday.

Usual deadline day, loads of hype nothing much happening.
 
Tevez and Mascherano maybe joining West Ham Utd on season long loans...now theres a big suprise!


Wow, both of these players signed in West Ham. I predicted that West Ham will finish the season in 6th place, think I was wrong?
I'm kind of confused about Tevez's career decisions, he could have joined any major club in the world years ago but he stayed in Brazil and now instead of joining Man U or Arsenal or Milan he joins West Ham. Seems a little odd to me.

Ricardo Oliveira was purchased for a spectacular figure of €15.0 million by AC Milan. Johann Vogel also moved to Real Betis in part exchange.

Oliveira is a good striker, he helped Joaquin take Real Betis to the champions league but unfortunately he was injured last season. What do you make of this? was this a good purchase or did Milan overpay?
 
Arsenal and Real Madrid have agreed a deal to swap midfielder Jose Antonio Reyes for forward Julio Baptista, BBC Radio Five Live understands.

Please!!! This is the latest on the situation.

Wise move I think, as it's only a season long loan and Tevez's can see if he likes England and also if he cope with the pace of the game.

Rangers have signed 26-year-old defender Sasa Papac from Austria Vienna for £400,000.

Wigan have signed Bristol City forward David Cotterill for £2m.

Defender Jan Kromkamp is on his way out of Liverpool and is returning to Holland to sign for PSV Eindhoven. Fee to be believed around £2m.

Tottenham have had a bid for Wigan full-back Pascal Chimbonda accepted.

Are those all of Aug 31st transfers?
 
oh my god I didn't know Julio Baptista joined Arsenal, Jose Antonio Reyes joined Real Madrid and Juan Pablo Sorin joined Hamburg.
 
Bapista/Reyes deals are for season long loans with an option to purchase at the end. Fees already agreed I think.

Bapista said when he made the deal "this is only a loan for the season and I've no intention of joining them for longer" so I don't know about the fee's been agreed.
 
I read that the Arsenal only agreed to the loan if there was a fee agreed with Madrid before the loan was complete. Then you can't force the player to sign for them.
