Posted December 19, 20168 yr With the transfer window set to open in a couple of week's time. I thought that I might start as well start this thread. Where do you think the biggest moves are going be? A thread here to post any transfers or rumours and discussion on who will go where. Expect the Chinese Super League to be involved in the transfer window.
December 19, 20168 yr Oscar is supposedly already a done deal to Shanghai for £60m and an insane amount of money per week in wages.
December 19, 20168 yr Author Apparently Carlos Tevez done a deal to Shanghai with a £615,000 per-week two-year deal. That is over the majority of some English football clubs wage budget per week. That is a disgusting amount of money to pay a player per week.
December 21, 20168 yr The China thing is fast becoming ridiculous. The thing is it has a massive knock-on effect here as it effectively balances the books for a load of clubs. It's a bit of a gimmick though, can't understand why players like Oscar/Texeria are going there. Guess we'll see in a couple of years whether the government manages to help Chinese football.. I think there will be a fair bit of movement this winter transfer window, unlike the last couple of seasons! Can see Liverpool, Spurs, Man Utd all spending money.
December 21, 20168 yr I don't get it. The league isn't competitive at all and the environmental conditions in China are f***ing awful. It's driven purely by the wages they're offering. And that to me raises questions of the kind of player you're getting. Anyone who cares about being the best they can be and improving and developing will stay in Europe and the best leagues. Not surprised it's one of the Chelsea players who stopped performing last year that's going. I'd have sacked him personally.
December 21, 20168 yr Didn't Drogba & Anelka go from Chelsea to Shanghai a few years ago? They probably won't stay there for long anyway - they'll just get some quick cash and leave again most probably.
December 23, 20168 yr Author If China had all that money they could develop the national team. In other news West Brom have bid £13m for Schneiderlin.
December 23, 20168 yr Schneiderlin will be departing. Jose confirmed he'd asked to leave. Everton are also interested.
December 29, 20168 yr OX-Chamberlain strongly linked with Liverpool! Klopp denied it. Sounds like agent talk to me.
December 29, 20168 yr Klopp denied it. Sounds like agent talk to me. I would have taken him no bother, good player!
January 4, 20178 yr Author Middlesbrough sign Rudy Gestede from Aston Villa. Julian Draxter moves to PSG for about £40m.
January 6, 20178 yr Author Lookman to Everton from Charlton for £10m. Wilfred Ndidi to Leicester City from Genk for £15m
