Reportedly Manchester United have matched the earlier bid made for Dimitar Berbatov by Manchester City and have agreed to add Frazier Campbell to the package. The Berbatov saga looks to have finally come to an end; with Manchester United apparently putting forward an English record bid for the Bulgarian striker. United manager, Alex Ferguson, will […]

Manchester United's website has Dimitar Berbatov featured as one of its first-team players (see above screenshot). While a final decision has yet to be announced regarding whether Berbatov will join Man United, Manchester City or Real Madrid, the webmaster at ManUtd.com either knows something we don't or is working ahead of time to ensure that […]

Marca, the daily Spanish sports newspaper, is reporting that Real Madrid has accepted a £32.5 million bid for Robinho. The audacious bid by new Man City owners Abu Dhabi United Group was made at the last minute, and now we await whether Chelsea is willing to match or exceed the bid with less than 90 […]

I got up this morning expecting another tense, dull day to be spattered with the occasional factual transfer as the transfer window creaked shut getting excited about nothing much in particular. A day spent scouring the BBC and Sky Sports transfer vidi-printers and tutting at bored 14 year old's just texting and e-mailing rubbish to […]

Manchester City has placed bids to capture the signings of David Villa and Mario Gomez before the August transfer window deadline ends in less than six hours at midnight UK time. “We have bids in for three players," said Dr Sulaiman Al-Fahim, head of the Abu Dhabi United Group (ADUG). "There is Berbatov, but there […]

According to Sky Sports News, Manchester City has made a shock bid for Dimitar Berbatov which has been accepted by Spurs. Incredibly, Tottenham is reported to have made a bid in excess of £30 million. The massive transfer fee makes him the most expensive transfer signing in British history. Man City manager Mark Hughes says […]

Tottenham Hotspur has announced that the club has reached an agreement with Spartak Moscow to sign Russian striker Roman Pavlyuchenko for a transfer fee believed to be £14 million. The star striker who made a huge impression in Euro 2008 won't be ready to play against Chelsea in the London derby today. His first match […]

During the past two weeks, I can't count how many times I've seen a headline from a major British newspaper tout that a major transfer deal was going to be concluded within the next 48 hours. Unbelieveable. It's now Thursday and there's only a few days remaining before the transfer window slams shut on Monday. […]

A look at Bayer Leverkusen's Bruno Labbadia concludes our The New Gaffer: Introducing... series this week. So far we've examined, in order: the journeyman, the company man, the stranger and, er, Martin Jol. Labbadia is a mix between a poor man's Jürgen Klinsmann and a poor man's Christian Bale (take a look!). In other words, […]

It's certainly been a busy summer at White Hart Lane this year as Juande Ramos begins to weed out the players he feels are holding Spurs back over the last few weeks and looks to bring in the kind of players he feels can bring more silverware Tottenham's way. With the exception of Robbie Keane, […]

Though Paris St Germain were in a relegation battle last season, they did manage to win the French League Cup, which qualifies them for the UEFA Cup competition. In preparing for their season, PSG has made some bold moves in the transfer market. Their first signing of the summer was Ludovic Giuly from AS Roma. […]

It looks like the floodgates in the transfer window have opened. So far this summer, it seems that the majority of major transfer deals have started and ended at Tottenham's White Hart Lane. The spark was Robbie Keane's move from Tottenham to Liverpool for 20.3 million pounds. That allowed Spurs to finalize the deal with […]

Robbie Keane, one of the most prolific goalscorers in the history of the Premier League, has joined Liverpool from Spurs for £19 million, which could increase to £20.3 million depending on appearances. The move is an excellent coup for Liverpool who are desperate for a proven striker to partner Fernando Torres up front. The skilfull […]

Sometimes it's hard to fathom, but the Big Four as we know them won't be able to sustain their power forever. At some point in time, one or more of those four will be dislodged and replaced by a new heavyweight. The question is, what team is capable of breaking the monopoly and which of […]

It's hard to label any transfer deal that costs 21 million Euros a bargain but considering the numbers that have been thrown around this summer, Ronaldinho's move to AC Milan looks to be cheap. The former two-time World Player of the Year (2004, 2005) signed a three-year contract at the San Siro after enduring a […]
