Perhaps Ibra will be a City player either on Friday or over the weekend? But then again, maybe my guess is a million miles off the truth!
Id be very surprised if one of the deals was Ibra. I just think it is too big a transfer to be kept so quiet. I think the transfer of a relative unknown from Italy for a much smaller transfer fee is more likely, just a hunch!

We would have been in discussions for a while just like Barca with Valencia
Id say they need the money pretty quick to sign Fabregas.It also seems that the top clubs and there respective national trams want as many deals done before the world cup.<br /><br />-- Wed May 19, 2010 9:46 am --<br /><br />

I've got the image of Blackpool trams painted in each nations colours parked at the sides of the pitch in SA.

I think City have grasped the situation better since the kaka fiasco...all deals involving the really big names are probably being kept close to the chest for obvious reasons.

Non Disclosure Agreements will be flying all over the place. Not that they mean much if you're dealing with Italians..

also Real Madrid will be in the market in the next fortnight, so other clubs want their business done.

Boateng must be one of them.
I don't think Ibra is the one that 100% done. It just come too soon. Normally, it's more difficult to negotiate deals with foreign clubs. It takes more time. I do believe this is still work in progress though.
It shouldn't be Luiz also. I think Real Madrid is also linked with him and i don't think he would decided now given that he got options.
It should be between Milner and Gerrard. Milner has been targeted by City for five weeks already and the Gerrard thing is also running for sometime now. If anything could get done today it should be these two. I would put my bet on Milner, as every indications suggest this is the most likely.
