A summary of where we are up to IMO.
I have posted this in the thread up top but didn't realise it was an old thread which has been bumped so for those who can't be bothered here is my update:-)
1) Pellegrini hasn't signed although Stu Brennan reckons Thursday, one or two posters reckon the delay is because he is still contracted to Malaga. However it seems we have been in touch and he is fully involved with Cheeky over what is going on at the club. Other considerations on the delay is the Jose press conference and not wanting any other media attention when we make the announcement.
2) Navas - all done and dusted but away with Spain so any official announcement from us won't happen till he returns, but already talking about playing with Silva next season in prem league.
3) Fernandhino all done and dusted pictures and interview on main site.
4) Novaretti seems he is joining Lazio according to Lazio official twitter page so that looks as though it will happen.
5) Rami - new speculation in Express see thread if you want to get involved.
6) Isco - still nothing really new although suggestion is that Real have signed a similar type player who was on loan with them aged 21. Sometimes when things go quiet it is because we are in deep negotiation and I am hoping that if Pellegrini is announced this week Isco won't be too far behind. Latest betting trends for those interested suggest we are odds on.
7) Alcantara - nothing to update appears may stay in Spain with Barca and this could be true but while he has that ridiculously low buy out clause until the end of July it is out of Barcas hands if the player genuinely wants to move.
8) Cavani - this thread has put on quite a few pages no new speculation other than Real Madrid seem to want to get involved if so we all know this may be Cavanis destination. Speculation only as far as I am concerned but there is a possibility we may have a deal with his club Dzeko +25m + Kolorov.
9) Lewandowski - this has gathered pace one or two knowledgeable posters have suggested this may be an alternative or even in addition to Cavani. Seems Borrusia won't let him go to Bayern and this has alerted other clubs ourselves included who we might be able to do a straight swop deal involving Dzeko, then use the Tevez money to conclude the Cavani deal.
