Have Barcelona bought a replacement for Alves yet? Seems strange to buy a back-up left back, presumably for a few million, when they have Alba, Adriano and 3 centre backs who can play left back yet seemingly limited options on the right.
I think Adriano will go, he was strongly linked with Lazio. On the right Vidal and Sergi Roberto are the main options currently.Have Barcelona bought a replacement for Alves yet?

Guillem Balague: "He is going to Manchester United."

Interesting as option to go to Napoli to replace Higuain must have been tempting.
Great news if true. Everton will make them pay a large sum and he stalled in growth last year and City hasn't had a good track record making CBs better in recent years

Just means they'll have to pay more.Van Dijk to Everton?
Actually, he signed a new contract recently.
A loan? Feck off.
That's Valencia.Exactly my reaction. I'm sure they can use some of the £50 million they'll receive for Gomes to afford Mata.
Hate this about some European clubs. Try to get players for peanuts from other leagues whilst they themselves demand top dollar for their stars.

You guys should sign Rodriguez.
We've had a couple of links to him but from what I've gathered we've decided against him as he's too expensive and we've opted to sign Peres to address the other full-back position instead. Some talk Delph could be a back-up LB to Clichy but will have to wait and see, personally I hope Angelino takes his chance in pre-season. Very offensive LB like Kolarov and impressed on loan at NYCFC. If he can adapt to the physicality of the Premier League and improve defensively he will become a very good player.

Not anymore.....the release clause was only til June 25th.Doesn't Rodriguez have a 20 mil release clause or something due to Wolfsburg not getting into CL ? @BobbyManc
You mean some of the £30m they got from us for Eric Bailly. Mata has 2 years left on his contract. It stinks of a Nani repeat. Keep him or sell him now. Players like this are too good to loan out to fleecing Spanish/Portuguese clubs.Exactly my reaction. I'm sure they can use some of the £50 million they'll receive for Gomes to afford Mata.

Good to know. Was afraid Wenger would be after him, no chance now I guess. Wonder why no one really went for him, though.Not anymore.....the release clause was only til June 25th.
Delph at left back. Yes, do that.
Also, some bad news for you from Irrational. Seems clubs can now get the money for selling players from vaguely similar sounding clubs. We are selling Aguero and De Bruyne to finance our transfers so you better start thinking of replacements.
Yep it's wierd because he has said already few times in the last weeks that his time with Wolfsburg is over.Good to know. Was afraid Wenger would be after him, no chance now I guess. Wonder why no one really went for him, though.
Does the one with bald head actually knows what he's talking about? Chelsea and Conte aren't in the CL
That's Valencia.
They could use their Bailly or Denis Suarez money though.
Gomes is at Valencia.

What do you expect from a League where Barca and Real make nearly all of the revenue because of their stranglehold of finance deals? I don't hate them at all for doing that. Juventus and Everton are two clubs that can feck off though. Both constantly overcharge for their players and offer peanuts in return despite being in great financial shape.
