The Rumour Mill, Transfer Speculation

This season is pretty much over and the rumours are already growing. Also there are a few threads with rumours in so like before how about we put them all in one thread.

Here's a few to get started

Andrei Shevchenko could finally be ready to give in to the lure of roubles at Stamford Bridge, with The Independent suggesting that Chelski's fourth move for the Ukrainian will be successful. Shevchenko himself is said to be warming to the idea of the massive wages on offer, while Milan would struggle to turn down a record fee.

Everton are back in the race to sign Blackburn and Manchester City Benni McCarthy

Seville have made a £4m bid for Lauren

Tottenham captain Ledley King has signed a new four-year contract.

Tottenham boss Martin Jol is ready to make a £4m bid for Wigan defender Pascal Chimbonda.

The trouble is Everton get linked with every striker out there. I just hope we actually sign one.


A good one.

Isn't Nugent one of the strikers Everton are always linked with? Might happen this summer if Preston don't make it through the playoffs perhaps

A selection of rumurs from http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/gossip_and_transfers/4967574.stm
 
Just been reading the papers, Man Utd supposedly looking at Carrick and Gattuso, Chelsea looking for a buyer for Del Horno and D'Alessandro wants to stay at Portsmouth
 
The only thing I will say in favour with Cisse is that he's scored more than Morientes and Crouch while mainly been a bench player. If we can get someone with equivalent pace who'll score about the same from the bench then let him go.

Just been reading about Liverpool supposedly looking to buy SWP, can't see it myself though I would like him at the club.
 
Seems Pearce is letting a few players go including Kiki Musampa, Albert Riera and David Sommeil.

Also kewell denies he's going to be sold
 
Well today the papers are full of morientes and kewell saying that aren't going anywhere. More on gallas wanting to leave and possibly wright-phillips being touted to man city.
 
Hmm just read about Benitez wanting to sign Benayoun. Also it seems Cisse has made the french squad so a few goals in the tournament and it will hopefully raise his price should he choose to sell him.
 
Well Morientes didn't make the Spanish squad (a little surprised as he has a pretty good scoring record for them) he wants showdown talks with Benitez over his future.
 
A little thread resurrection.

Reading the mirror this morning it seems Liverpool are going to let kromkamp go to raise money for alves. Still open to offers for kewell and supposedly Bent is top of our list for strikers with bellamy 2nd and defoe third.

Also supposedly everton have offered £7m for johnson
 
Seems palace want £12M for johnson, too much IMO. Kuyt again linked with newcastle and more about liverpool letting morientes and cisse go for smallish fees in the papers today.
 
So this morning it seems liverpool have put a big bid in for kuyt supposedly, plus a little bit of text underneath that may make a few liverpool fans happy

....Djimi Traore has been told to find another club....

I think this Kuyt business is possibly the club or the agent trying to generate interest to start a possible bidding war. Wasn't he linked with a fair few clubs last summer?
