Speculation Motown's hysterical and annoying, but traditional, totally unfounded Summer 2017 rumours thread

[Jeff]

But Mahrez can still sign for Barca, Sevilla or Atletico if he wants to tomorrow

Even if he wants to, what makes you think we'd sell him now there's no chance of spending the money on a replacement?

The window in France has closed.

Their windows are also doors.

Not got a good feeling on this now, Brighton confirm they have an extension confirmed but all quiet on the Belvoir Drive front now!

We never ever officially comment on any transfer until it is confirmed.

They're quite keen on shutters too. Especially in the summer when it gets hot.

SSN were suggesting they were after Janssen from Spurs on loan, a few mins ago.

The mockery thinks we could have until tomorrow afternoon...

"The negotiations went right up to the 11pm deadline but there was a breakthrough in the Drinkwater negotiations just before the deadline so the transfer process could begin.

It is believed the fee agreed for Drinkwater is around £30 million, while City are understood to have agreed a deal worth £15 million for Silva.

City now need permission from the FA to finalise the deals before 1pm for both moves to take place."

Musa now NOT joining Hull.

 

[glyn]

From the BBC explanation of the extension and 'deal sheets' - doesn't this affect the Silva deal...?

"But if a club are looking to complete an international transfer, they still have to comply with the FIFA TMS of deadline of midnight."

 

[Graz]

All gone very quiet it seems. Have we been granted the extension or not?

Hope someone at the club read that FIFA rule!

Rumours on Twitter that Silva failed his medical.

From Sky:



LEICESTER CONFIDENT ON SILVA

Leicester are confident they have completed the signing of Adrien Silva from Sporting Lisbon before the deadline, for a fee Sky Sources understand to be worth £22m.

Leicester officials are awaiting formal confirmation from the FA and Premier League that the deal was processed correctly.

 

[londonfox]

Let's hope Rob is right. Ndidi, King, James, and Iborra is not sufficient quality nor depth.

 

[Jeff]

The Mockery saying they expect the Silva signing to be confirmed in the morning, so I'm going to bed now.

 

[Miles Away]

What a bit of business that is.

Just got to hope barca haven't tied up Riyad and we will be better coming out of this window than we were going in.

 

[londonfox]

It's not even 8:00 here so I'll stay up and keep watch

 

[LES Fox]

Fantastic day if the Silva deal is concluded tomorrow.

Londonfox, watch out for snipers.
