Thursday’s Rumours.
It’s not that we want to keep reporting on Tottenham day in day out. Blame it on
Martin Jol. On the headlines today,
Martin Jol continues his quest to set a record of highest number of rumours in 1 month. He is set to tempt Manchester United with a 5 million bid for
Wes Brown and 50cents for Hash Brown too. However, I can rest assure you guys out there this is definitely not going to be for real.
Next, we shall look into the participation of the Woods family in the transfer window. It seems to me that there has been deforestation going on as our January transfer window hypes up.
Alan Pardew is set to plant brother tree
Marlon Harewood in his backyard at The Valley at the cost of 4 million and Younger brother
Freddy Eastwood would be moving to Portsmouth from Southend if they have enough money to plant this young tree. Being an expensive tree and thus unique,
Marlon Harewood is also a target for
Paul Jewell. Also, Pardew is looking to buy Sevilla’s unsettled striker
Kepa Blanco to keep competition for the striker position fired up. This might jolly well kill Harewood if Blanco partners him in the future as we all know fire burns trees. Furthermore,
Alan Pardew seems to have a magic rubber band that is capable of preventing elbow movement. He has made
Ben Thatcher one of his transfer targets and it is said that the deal can be finalised as early as tomorrow.
Elsewhere at Manchester, United are linked with a move of bringing star midfielder
Xavi to Old Trafford. However, the European Champions wants talented winger
Cristiano Ronaldo in exchange. It looks like another miss for Manchester United as
Alex Ferguson has previously stated that
Ronaldo is not going to dive to anywhere as Old Trafford is already a swimming pool big enough for him. On the other side of Manchester, City has signed highly-rated French midfielder
Djamel Abdoun on loan for the rest of the season. It seems like not only Arsenal fancy French but City does too.
9 goals in 2 matches, this might probably signal the end of
Jerzy Dudek's carreer at Anfield with Liverpool set to sign 21 year old Sampdoria goalkeeper
Daniele Padelli as replacement. Meanwhile, Blackburn are preparing a bid for right-back
Paul Konchesky to replace future Liverpool bad boys gonna-be club
Lucas Neill. Currently, the club consists of
Craig Bellamy and
Jermaine Pennant. Will
Lucas Neill join them?
Newcastle United is looking to add depth to their defence with interest shown in bringing 19 year old Inter Milan defender
Marco Andreolli to St James Park for a walk. Let’s hope he is not the next
Jean-Alain Boumsong. Meanwhile, with new found cash through sale of their captain, Fulham manager
Chris Coleman is trying to prevent out-of-favour midfielder
Alexei Smertin from joining
Alan Curbishley and instead, join him at Craven Cottage. “Help me!” says Chris Coleman. Also, Wigan is about to sign Nigerian talented youngster
Chinedu Ogbuke on a short term loan deal. It seems like Wigan has shaked off competition from top clubs like Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool with Paul “Jewel”. Lastly, former premiership striker
Jonathan Stead is set to complete a move to Sheffield United after a 1million bid him was accepted. Will he bring more goals to the relegation strugglers or will he contribute further to
Neil Warnock’s relegation woes?
That’s all for today’s rumours.
