The Independent reckon Liverpool are about to complete the signings of Stewart Downing and Charlie Adam any minute now.
Adam is set to move for £8million today which means he may already be a Liverpool player by the time you read this. What’s wrong with Raul Meireles?
Meanwhile, Aston Villa’s Downing is expected to put in a transfer request before the end of the week.
No figure has been mentioned for Downing but Liverpool would surely expect to pay less than Man Utd paid for Ashley Young. If Downing costs more than £15million then Kenny Dalglish has been well and truly stitched up.
The Daily Mirror are reporting Manchester United are after Barcelona’s 20-year-old midfielder Thiago Alcantara. United are offering £15million which both sides seem pretty happy about, although Barca want a buy-back clause put into the contract.
That’s taking the p*ss a bit, isn't it? The Premier League isn’t your feeder league yet, Barca.
That deal doesn’t look like it will happen, but Thiago could be heading to the North West with Bolton Wanderers on a loan deal.
And in three word transfer news…
Mata to Arsenal
Keane to Blackburn
Hulk to City
