Dunno if this has been posted, but I'm sure there'll be quite a few people happy with this news:

Galatasaray have failed in their bid to land sought after FC Basel star Xherdan Shaqiri.

A statement from club released to the Turkish stock exchange read: "Negotiations with the professional football player Xherdan Shaqiri which began on the 23rd January 2012 have come to an end, we have not agreed terms with [Shaqiri] and his club F.C Basel."

>>>>>>>>>>Man City: 'Milan-Tevez not an option'<<<<<<<<<<
By Football Italia staff

Manchester City have warned Milan that they are “not an option” for Carlos Tevez unless the £30m price-tag is met, despite their “misplaced sense of confidence.”

Rossoneri Vice-President Adriano Galliani confirmed they are still in negotiations for Tevez, but are only willing to take the want-away Argentine on loan.

“As things stand AC Milan isn't an option for Carlos Tevez,” Manchester City chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak told The National.

“Mr Galliani and his advisers have developed a misplaced sense of confidence from their premature discussions with Carlos and his advisers.

“If they want to be a consideration in this transfer window they would do better to stop congratulating one another and begin to look at how they would meet our terms.”

Manchester City are making a stand against the player, who has been AWOL in Argentina since November 7. His wages have been frozen as of the end of November and he was fined six weeks’ wages for gross misconduct.

“Carlos remains a player with contractual obligations to Manchester City for the next two-and-a-half seasons,” said Khaldoon.

“Unless we receive an offer that we deem appropriate, the terms of his contract will be enforced. Inter Milan and Paris St Germain approached discussions with us in good faith and it is always a positive experience to deal with people with a professional approach.”

This final broadside at Milan – who very publicly agreed terms with Tevez’s agent over the Christmas break – is further evidence the move is not going to happen.

It is good news for Maxi Lopez, as the Catania striker is holed up in a Milan hotel waiting for news. He will be signed if the Rossoneri fail to capture Tevez.

Inter are not interested in Tevez anymore

Jeez he might not even end up going anywhere. Right now he might even stay at City still. Although, I can still see a Milan deal happening with a loan + obligation to buy for ~€25m.

Well he's a moron then. If he just went to training in Manchester then he'd be costing the club millions (there wouldn't be the fines) and they'd have more reason to sell him to Milan.
