S-Clarke Posted 16 August, 2012 Share Posted 16 August, 2012 Maybe - Jean-Armel Kana-Biyik ? I don't think Nixon has mentioned him before but we have been linked in some places, but he'd be a coup. Being tracked by a host of top clubs all over europe, very good CB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whoever Nixon is on about he seems to think it will be a big signing if it comes off: @reluctantnicko @Jayrodfan2 Sunday People. A new name. Been in. Ambitious. Thought chance was slim.

Southampton and Gaston Ramirez were near. Closer and closer. The British company wants to make a major investment. And with Bologna, there is agreement on a valuation of nearly 20 million, including bonuses. Figures important, that can push the closure. The parties are closer, and you can dramatically close to Ramirez in the coming hours. We must define the first official proposal but also with Bologna, waiting for news. The Southampton has offered Ramirez a major contract. And these developments will come hours ...

swannymere Posted 16 August, 2012 Share Posted 16 August, 2012 I'm guessing they mean €20M is the cost of the transfer and wages? I don't know why everyone is getting so excited, it's obviously ********. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Mockles Posted 16 August, 2012 Share Posted 16 August, 2012 Who knows. Would be a huge sign of intent but it's what you need in the PL. One or 2 game changing players can be worth so much more than the actually transfer & wage cost (although footballers are paid way too much). It all happens on a Friday. Could this be the Cortese connection in Italy working again, quality going up with each promotion. I hope so. Ramirez would be a brilliant signing but I would also be happy with Phillips or Lens but Ramirez far more expensive but quality & to beat off Liverpool & Spurs would be a good way to wildly swing open the door to loudly announce, we are back!!
