Chelsea and Tottenham battle over Krasic
Both Chelsea and Tottenham are preparing to battle it out for Milos Krasic.
Krasic current club is Juventus but lack of first team action and falling out with manager Antonio Conte means he is likely to be on his way out of the club.
Spurs and Chelsea are not the only ones interested in Krasic’s services. Inter, Fenerbahce and a host of clubs from Russia are also interested signing the Serbian star.
Tottenham and QPR interested in Beckham
Tottenham and QPR are both interested in signing David Beckham when his contract expires with LA Galaxy in November.
QPR owner Tony Fernandes wrote on Twitter: “I think having someone like David in the club would be great.
While Spurs manager Harry Redknapp has always been a big fan of Beckham and believes that someone of his passing and crossing ability would provide new striker Emmanuel Adebayor with the service to maximise his Heading ability.
36 year old Beckham also trained with Tottenham last season, but was prevented a loan to White Hart Lane by his current club LA Galaxy.
Manchester City agree terms with Arsenal over Nasri
Arsenal and Manchester City have agreed terms over midfield star Samir Nasri. The France international is currently having a medical in Manchester and it is believed the deal could be worth around £25m.
Arsene Wenger said: “The summer was very difficult because we had Fabregas and Nasri in permanent transfer negotiations and that is draining in the end,”
“We lost two great players and that’s a sad side of the story. But at some stage it has to be over because you want to focus on the future.”
Wesley Sneijder One Step Closer In Joining Manchester United
According to the English media, a head chief of Manchester United has already flown to Milan in order to complete the move of Wesley Sneijder.
Although Inter Milan has explained to the press that they will not sell their playmaker, it could easily be a strategy in order to maximize the price of the Dutchman and receive more profit.
“A delegation of United directors have arrived in Milan and they have already met with a delegation of Inter directors,” an insider told the public. “There was a meeting between both parties.
“United, it seems, are very much intent on taking Sneijder, and if they meet the evaluation then they will get him and the deal will happen.
“This transfer is destined to be resolved, in one way or another, in just a short matter of time. It’s in the interests of both parties to come to a resolution soon, and I don’t think the talks will drag on for months and months.”
Sneijder currently is on a contract until 2015 but that can easily be changed if indeed Manchester United tries to sign him and get a replacement for the departed Paul Scholes.
The Dutchman playmaker was simple another player in the bench some years ago in Real Madrid and now is one of the highest rated players not only in Italy but in the World, so Inter Milan should really try to retain this highly skilled player for as long as they possibly can.
Newcastle sign Sylvain Marveaux
Newcastle United have continued their aggressive transfer strategy this month by confirming the signing of Sylvain Marveaux from Rennes. The latter was widely tipped to join Liverpool FC from Rennes but instead agreed to join the Magpies, thus making it a transfer coup of sorts for Alan Pardew. Marveaux has signed a five year contract with the Magpies and becomes their third signing of the month after Ligue 1 compatriot Yohan Cabaye and Demba Ba.
Marveaux said that he rejected a move to Liverpool because they could not reach an agreement with him regarding his contract. There were rumours of him not joining Anfield because of a failed medical but he rubbished them. Marveaux, 25, is a left sided winger, and Magpies boss Alan Pardew is said to be delighted with his acquisition.
