Leandro Damiao!

Nothing new but it's virtually a done deal to Napoli according to Sky Italy. He has supposedly turned us down.

What an arrogant little ****. Who does he think he is turning us down? We'll show him just what he missed out on when we take the league by storm next season!

Never needed nor wanted him in the first place - overrated, overhyped and overpriced.

Hope he rots in that sorry excuse of a little Italian club.

Obviously he didn't read the posts on here yesterday about what a sh*thole Naples is and how a midtable premier league club is a much better bet than champions league football at one if Italy's biggest clubs.

Doesn't matter really, as just being linked with these players is brilliant in itself.

would be lovely to nick one of them tho!!

The team who finishes 2nd in league 1 is probably more attractive than us now. And spurs, Liverpool and Everton come to think of it

He heard about George Clooney.

Current Sky Italia viewpoint:

Napoli is planning it’s future. Currently there is a summit between Aurelio De Laurentiis, Riccardo Bigon and Rafa Benitez. They are recapping the current situation, while also deciding the next moves to mainly bolster the attack, with Cavani getting closer to Paris St Germain and Mario Gomez officially joining Fiorentina today. The contacts with the agent for Leandro Damiao and Internacional de Porto Alegre continue. In the meantime, the summit goes on.

Let's just outbid them FFS!

Come on Don, get the chequebook out! Make our money worthwhile - we promise we'll all buy the new shirt if you nick us this one!

(at least I will)

PEDULLA ': "DAMIAO CHOSE NAPOLI"

Leandro Damiao chose Naples, prefers the Italian solution to Southampton and explain why. Now the ball is in two clubs: up to 15 days ago there had been no real contact, but Bigon Micheli and had kept in close contact with the entourage of the attacker born in 1989. In the last hours, things have changed: Napoli Cavani is giving the PSG does not unlock Dzeko and Torres is not for sale at this time. L 'Internacional of Porto Alegre is not lying when he says that an offer of 21 million is considered too low. The demand is about 25 million plus a percentage of 15-20 percent on a future sale of the attacker. The Southampton is pressing, but Damiao was unbalanced about a month ago, a backstory that makes us understand many things. Speaking during the program "Dono da Bola," which airs on Globo Network during the morning Brazilian, had enthusiastically to the proposed Careca, connected by telephone. "Go to Naples, you will not regret", had suggested Careca . "Nice advice, I like the idea very much," the response of Leandro. And the driver Neto, the former striker of the Corinthians, he continued to tease him nicely. Damiao had chosen Naples, we told you that the contacts going on for about a year. And they can now get to the heart. The Southampton maybe we will try again, but Leandro has already chosen. It expects Internacional Naples and find an agreement.

This one certainly seems to be sliding away from us unfortunately!

Oh well, on to the next saga we go.

slid and gone! still trust Mp and NC to come up with a special alternative

Yep, sounds like the end of that one.

I don't really get what all that means.

We will have other targets Im sure. Good to see we are in the market for good players.

Darren Bent?

@tancredipalmeri: Jovetic has turned down Napoli, according to Sky Italy. Napoli offered for him 27m €

How many strikers do they want?

They seem to have an awful lot of money?! But I'm guessin they're just seeing what they can get before they sell Cavani to PSG!

They play a pretty attacking system tbf.

Still dont know why if we are prepared to play 20 odd million + wages, and apparantly MP has good links with JM, we arent trying to get in bed with Chelsea and Lukaku ? Unless of course he is going to be a big choice at Chelski.

Perhaps significant signings make all the difference.

Which us why of course, the TW is not busy until towards the end

Jovetic in talks with Man City. Negredo close so perhaps no Osvaldo there....

Tancredi Palmeri ‏@tancredipalmeri

Considering that Negredo is close, and there is meeting for Jovetic, so seems Osvaldo deal is not going through for Manchester City

Because Chelsea would be retarded to sell us Lukaku, he's going to be huge for them over the next few years IMO.

@Tancredipalmieri: Napoli bid £23m for Southampton's Rickie Lambert....they have bid for every other decent striker why not Rickie...:-) ..its like, what, isn't our Rickie good enough for you?

It'll take significantly more than £20 million. That's only £3m more than they paid for him!

Not to mention his impressive form last season will keep the price really high, doesn't matter really, Chelsea would be foolish not to give him a chance next season IMO.

Lukaku for Shaw anyone? Game of Thrones styleee.

Doesn't matter really, as just being linked with these players is brilliant in itself.

Brilliant,that's the first time I've LOLed on here for ages.

Naples, offering 30 million for Jackson Martinez

Napoli has this new formation they will try next year.

1-1-8

0-0-0- 11 (goalkeeper is CL level striker playing Russian fly)

Benteke hands in transfer request on SNN now.

Don't know what that means for us?

L'pool. Chels, Spuds interested.... does that free up anyone for us?

(doubt it, they can afford to keep 3 teams before they free up anyone to a potential 'rival') LOL at the world gone mad (is Beneteke actually 'that' good?)

Stick 20 mill in to Chelsea for Lakaku and lets see what happens?

They seem to have gone to the QPR school of transfers.

haha this is almost getting ridicolous now, finally some silly action in this window

So Napoli have bid for Damiao, Jackson, Gomez, Jovetic, Lewandowski, Osvaldo anyone I missed?

If he prefers to go to Napoli thats expected but he doesn't seem to be their first, even second choice so you have to wonder whether they are actually interested.

Nothing like covering your bases then

lol, so no one knows then.

The most obvious player hasn't been linked with Napoli. Surely with Chelsea being linked with Rooney, Suarez, Cavani, Benteke etc. Torres isn't in Mourinho's plans, so another link up with Benitez?

Maybe both clubs are signing him on a 50% player share basis?

We play him on Saturday and Napoli play him on Sunday.

We are in straightened times after all.

This thread is going nowhere til he goes somewhere.

And then we'll have the inquest as to why we didn't sign him.

Basically saying Napoli have offered 20million euros and a 5 year deal at 2.2m euros per year to him.That c £17.2Million transfer fee and £1.9Million in salary for 5 years (£36,500 per week).

We can pay more fee and more salary im sure. But he wont pick us over Napoli. Napoli helped make Maradona the International superstar he was. They are a known and respected team in South America,unlike Saints.

That says it's the same offer that they offered to Gomez, you'd think he'd be on more than that a year a Bayern probably no wonder he went to Fiorentina.

Why on earth would he not want to play for the same team as Brazilian legend Guly ?

Internacional president Giovanni Luigi has denied receiving an offer from Napoli for in-demand striker Leandro Damiao. Tottenham and Southampton have also been linked with moves for the Brazilian.

http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11854/8814766/Transfer-news-Internacional-deny-receiving-Napoli-offer-for-Leandro-Damiao

Exactly. The "glamour" of playing for Napoli only goes so far with established players like Gomez.

Playing devils advocate a real diamond is still to do it in Europe despite his 17 Selecao caps....and i know this sounds a bit far fetched but those caps also coincided with Brazil not playing all that well tbh...I had also read he has privately discounted us in any case, as has Osvaldo. Delighted to be proven wrong of course.
