An Italian pal of mine has kind of translated what has happened, he was about to sign for inter for $10m Brighton then offered $14m so the deal was then off the table as Boca accepted the higher bid as they want to sign Osvaldo as his replacement and this would give them enough cash. Not speaking Italian can't confirm if true obviously but it's getting interesting.

Am I the only one that is concerned about spending that sort of money on a player untried in Europe let alone England ? What effect will this have on FFP if he is a flop ? Are there no 'tried and trusted' players that could be tempted with a pot of 10-12 million to spend on transfer/wages ?

If this signing comes off but we fail to make promotion, will we be doomed (to stay in the Championship or worse) for ever ? :nono:

Show some faith in our club to make the right decision (whatever that is)...

That's interesting there were 1998 posts when I posted but mine is 2,000.

Edit: Ah, it was 1,998 replies so 1,999 posts including the first one

Chelsea in for French striker, does this mean that they are losing interest in J.C ?

Yes because they can't afford more than one player.

Wasn't there something this morning on Twitter that Inter had now bid 15m euros? Surely we won't up our bid!

Personally I would rather have two 5 mill strikers rather than one 10 Mill, imagine if he gets injured or just dont like it here?

What if one of your £5m strikers is a huge fan of ABBA and the other £5m striker goes on a killing spree every time he hears Swedish pop music.

Just imagine.

Spoil sport. Who is Tancredi Palmeri? Is he a reliable source?

Soulman · Dec 30, 2015

Not keen on the name Jonathan anyway, i used to know a Jonathan at school, quite a boring bloke with a dodgy haircut.

He is normally pretty reliable, works for beIN Sports, CNN, Gazzetta dello Sport and Rai Sport. I read a Spanish newspaper report saying that Calleri is going to be sent to Bologna on loan for 6 months from Inter for the remainder of this season. Hopefully something will go wrong and we can sneak him still, or maybe a loan from Inter would be possible.

Palmeri means Grandad. Make of that what you will.

He's a highly respected Italian journalist.
