Let's do that together, guys. I'll edit my first post when official news is posted.

In other news: JM Aulaus (Lyon president) promised the fans that Ribéry will be a Lyon player next year!

 

[Boudz]

dont forget Ballack 2 Chelsea

 

[Slagathor]

Ajax are still fishing for Davids... More news when it gets out!

 

[Slagathor]

Also: Feyenoord signed a whole army of meaningless players. But that's not news...

 

[Geof]

Gudjohnsen is inches away of signing for Barcelona

And Bayern seem to be interested in Ruud.

Also: Feyenoord signed a whole army of meaningless players. But that's not news...

So did Standard. Coincidence?

Muchos Gracias Geof

 

[Bjerknes]

De La Torre Gabri is a decent player. I'm not sure why he went to Ajax.

 

[Bjerknes]

Onyewu and Huth are supposedly Middlesbrough players.

 

[Desmond]

Any news on how much Hamburg paid for Kompany, and how much Bayern paid them for Van Buyten? Potentially a smart move, that.

 

[Geof]

Onyewu and Huth are supposedly Middlesbrough players.

Huth is. It was confirmed

Onyewu didn't sign for Boro. There have been talks, but nothing is done yet. Reading has made a bid on him today.

Any news on how much Hamburg paid for Kompany, and how much Bayern paid them for Van Buyten? Potentially a smart move, that.

The fee wasn't disclosed, but people seem to say that HSV paid 10,5M + 2M if HSV reaches the CL + 1M if HSV is champion + 20% of his next transfer.

He signed a 6 years contract.

As for Van Buyten, if have no clue.

___________________

--Meanwhile, Poulsen signed for ... FC Sevilla. The Danish was announced at Inter and Milan, but he chose for the Andalusian club: http://www.sevillafc.es/www0506/noticias.php?len=esp&id=5552

-- And Micoud went back to his old club: Girondins de Bordeaux

-- Dacourt, who isn't part of the French team at the WC, signed for Inter

 

[Daddi]

Henrik Larsson Barcelona ======> Helsingborg

 

[Geof]

Henrik Larsson Barcelona ======> Helsingborg

added.

And Gudjohnssen is taking the medical tests this morning. He will sign a four year contract this afternoon.
Barça are understood to pay 12 Million for the Icelandic forward, who's supposed to replace Henrik Larsson.

Wow, Anderlecht are really doing some major business!!

Are they rebuilding their team or something?

 

[Geof]

Wow, Anderlecht are really doing some major business!!

Are they rebuilding their team or something?

a lot of players left:

Zetterberg quit playing
Wilhelmsson will probably leave
Vanderhaeghe is 36 (but continues)
Goor isn't young either
Tihinen, Kompany and Zewlakow left (3 of the 4 defenders)
....

They have a direct spot for CL, and sold Kompany for a nice amount of money, plus Wilhelmsson should bring +/- 4 Million more, so money isn't a real problem.

They're still looking for at least one defender (maybe 2: one DC and one RB) + one powerful forward.

Yeah, they're quite ambitious, and tired of doing so bad in the CL (1 point in 2 years... )

I thought Morientes's transfer was a permanent one?

 

[Geof]

I thought Morientes's transfer was a permanent one?
