Argentinian starlet nearing move to England.

Tottenham are closing in on an agreement with Roma over the transfer of Erik Lamela, with reports suggesting a fee of €30m plus €5m in bonuses.

The 21-year-old has been linked with a switch to White Hart Lane over the past fortnight, as current Tottenham star Gareth Bale edges closer to a move to Real Madrid.

Despite selling Pablo Osvaldo and Marquinhos already this summer, it is understood that Roma must sell Lamela in order to balance the books, as they look to offer Francesco Totti a new deal along with Daniele De Rossi remaining at the club.

According to Sky Sport Italia, there is a potential agreement over the transfer fee with an initial €30m plus €5m in bonuses thereafter.

Spurs would be offering Lamela a five-year contract and as reported by Football Italia, the deal could be announced by Monday or Tuesday.

It is significantly less than the original asking price from Roma, and it will come as an even bigger disappointment to supporters who are opposed to the sale taking place.

While Osvaldo was a largely unpopular individual at the club, Lamela was seen as the brightest prospect in the Giallorossi squad.

It will undoubtedly come as a huge blow for the club should he confirm his departure, with new coach Rudi Garcia looking to restore confidence in the squad in his first season in charge.

The Roma faithful gave the players a mixed reception during the squad presentation event earlier this week, with boos and jeers ringing out of the Curva Sud in the Stadio Olimpico, and Lamela’s exit will do little to ease the tension.

Why all of a sudden are people jipping YSMN for his obvious wind ups? They happen every year, it's called banter you overly sensitive noobs.

interesting read

Manchester United manager David Moyes has claimed he would not have stood in the way of Leighton Baines and Marouane Fellaini leaving the club if he was still in charge at Everton.

United recently had a £28million joint bid for the duo turned down, with Everton describing the offer as "derisory".

But Moyes feels a move to Old Trafford would benefit the careers of both players and urged Roberto Martinez not to stand in their way if they wanted to move.

"I definitely (have sympathy for Martinez)," said Moyes.


David Moyes says Manchester United have the squad to deal with injuries and makes it clear-again-that Wayne Rooney is not for sale.
"But I also know if I had been Everton manager and Sir Alex (Ferguson) had come asking for Baines and Fellaini I'd have found it very difficult to keep them.

"I always thought the right thing to do was the right thing for players."

Moyes also defended the money that had been offered to Everton, insisting they were trading in a volatile and unpredictable transfer market.

"There's a mixed market at the moment. Nobody's quite sure where the price is just now," added the Scotsman.

"We've had offers for players which we think are quite small. I can see where other clubs might be thinking there's not enough value for their players as well.


Roberto Martinez says Everton have not received any further bids from Manchester United for Marouanne Fellaini and Leighton Baines.
"There is no disrespect whatsoever. I respect Everton greatly and speak with (chairman) Bill Kenwright most weeks."

Having so far failed to bring in the expected reinforcements, minds are starting to get focused at Old Trafford.

Real Madrid's Mesut Ozil, a one-time target of Ferguson's, is the latest to be linked, whilst Cesc Fabregas has not completely disappeared off the radar, with the Old Trafford hierarchy waiting to see whether the former Arsenal skipper keeps his place at Barcelona.

There has also been talk of an attempt to secure Juan Mata in exchange for Wayne Rooney, although United sources have poured cold water on such an idea.

Whilst many Red Devils fans would accept the swap willingly, it appears executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward intends to keep Rooney at Old Trafford.

The argument is that with both Woodward and Moyes new in their roles, a statement has to be made that players will have no more power than they did in the Ferguson era, and by allowing Rooney to leave, even if it was favourable for United, it would send out the wrong signals.

And Moyes feels Rooney still has a significant role to play, which could involve starting against Chelsea on Monday.

"Wayne has recovered and has a good chance of starting," said Moyes.

Just like Rooney is going no-where.....until the other team offers a large amount of £££ that is acceptable.

Its JUST talk at the moment and nothing more

Rooney has been publicly unhappy about not being in the starting 11, Mata hasn't had any such issues.

Therefore it's safe to assume there is a much bigger chance Rooney could move, whereas not even a large amount of £££ would make Mata move imo, it would take a crazy amount, because he is well settled, happy and doesn't appear to want out, unlike Rooney.

If Rooney doesn't feature against Chelsea and it's safe to say he might not due to the ongoing saga, then it could be the final straw, these are the games he wants to be playing in, he doesn't want to be warming the bench, therefore after the game he may even hand in a transfer request if he doesn't start.

Also Etoo is most likely on the transfer list now is he not, due to Anzi cutting their budget and having a new plan for their future. He would be a lot cheaper and better than Rooney, but he is on crazy wages (so is Rooney apparently), therefore there are alternatives out there, Chelsea do not need to go for Rooney if it's going to take big money.
