Lukaku back on the cards?

[adaminho]

If there's on person City should sign this transfer window more than anyone it's this guy, he will sign if we bid and he is without a doubt going to be one of the best strikers in the world.

Yeah, so is Balotelli.

I don't disagree that Balo will be one of the best, but having another different and younger striker who can score goals on the rotation should be a priority..

Ever since Guidetti left we are devoid of young strikers coming through! Nimley won't get a chance, Bunn is a few years off yet.. This bloke could be in the Carling cup straight off with cameo's late on in winning games in the Prem..

Look at Barca, simply a procession of youngsters coming through the ranks and scoring when given a chance, Bojan, Pedro and now other youngsters who will inevitably step up..

He has left im sure he is in the US??

He's in the US but I beleive he's unattached and is just training with us.

"I've been in a positive mood and I'm just focusing on my football. I really don't know what will happen and I'm not thinking too much about it."

Meanwhile, Guidetti's agent Per Jonsson told Swedish news agent TT that City want the youngster to stay."

Sign him, loan him back to Anderlecht, job done

Be better to loan him out in the Premier League to Wigan or Bolton maybe and let him get used to the league. Then he can hit the ground running next year. Being loaned back (as you suggest) to Anderlecht will probably appeal to him (and might help force thru the deal) but not sure how much this will do for his development.

But Balotelli isn't a no.9, he's a left sided forward. Lukaku is a no.9.!

Daily Mail. :O

Chelsea have yet to land any of their transfer targets. They remain hopeful of signing striker Romelu Lukaku from Anderlecht but it emerged Manchester City are set to launch a bid for the teenager dubbed the new Didier Drogba.

Lukaku wants to move to west London but City are expected to meet Anderlecht’s asking price of £18m, while Chelsea are still negotiating details of the fee. Another target, Neymar, seems destined to join Real Madrid when he leaves Santos in January.

Guidetti has re-signed 3 year deal. He got 1 goal , 1 assist to celebrate at Vancover:
<a class="postlink" href="http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11679_7046760,00.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528, ... 60,00.html</a>
"Teenage striker John Guidetti has ended speculation over his future by penning a new three-year deal at Manchester City.

The 19-year-old's previous contract with the Blues expired at the end of last season, fuelling rumours that he would leave the Premier League club this summer.

He was on the verge of joining Dutch giants FC Twente before having a change of heart, while Championship side Leicester were also thought to be interested in his services.

But Sweden Under-21 international Guidetti has now extended his stay with the Blues to keep him at the Ethiad Stadium until 2014.

The youngster's agent, Per Jonsson, says he is determined to fight for a spot in City's star-studded side.

Competition
"After (considering) some other strong alternatives, John has decided on City when it came to signing a contract," Jonsson told Aftonbladet.

"To stand up against the increasing competition at Manchester City is what John Guidetti is all about."

Guidetti feels he has the backing of manager Roberto Mancini and is confident he will get opportunities to prove himself at City this season.

"For me it is really important that an important and skilled manager is engaged in my progress as player," he said.

"And when he is, you just need to listen."

He added: "The club will play a record number of games during the coming season and I am convinced that my chance will come, and I will be ready to take it.

"We have agreed on a good situation where I will work harder than ever before to establish myself as a player at this fantastic club with all its fantastic players and fans that really give all their support."

Yeah just broke on ssn aswell

With Guidetti staying, seemed unlikely anyway. We will have 3 (4 if Tevez stays) high profile forwards (assuming we get Kun) and a very good young prospect in Guidetti who can learn from them. And we also still have Nimely, who remains highly regarded by the club, and the prodigious Harry Bunn, who looks quite special.

Can't help thinking the Chavs will be signing an absolute monster here,the lad looks to have the lot.A huge bonus may be the fact his equally talented younger brother will probably follow.....
