Maybe he's bored of it all too, seeing as he supposedly has so little say in anything, but I would still expect he has to sign the paperwork.

Think even the South Americans have probably got bored of it by now

Ahh got ya, that's their nickname isn't it, its you that was clever not me I'm afraid, never even crossed my mind, wish it had tbh :lol:

Thanks for your answer too, never noticed it at first

Thanks mate, that cleared that up then, so now I want him to sign again :lol: which I doubt he will anyway

Sorry Dazzer, I'm not trying to be clever, it was reported that we had made an offer of $10M USD for 85% of the player, which leaves someone else owning 15%, this is banned by the premier league, but as far as I'm aware not by the football league, so if we get promoted, then what?

If 3rd party ownership is banned by the premier league, why were/ are Brighton negotiating to buy 85% of the player? What happens if we do get promoted and the owner of the other 15% decides they are not selling? I'm kinda hoping he does go to Atl. Mineiro right now, sounds like a minefield.

Is he really available in this window? Sign him up FFS, I'm amazed if Newcastle are willing to sell, very fast and as good eye for goal from what I have seen, I'd be well happy if we signed him

So then its not a loan its a sale, maybe Boca think our deal is better, who knows, either way it doesn't look like it will happen for us, there clearly isn't the will on JC's part to come here.

That could also mean that JC hasn't agreed to our terms, maybe the offer is too reliant on promotion clauses and he would rather have a higher wage from the start, he's not exactly falling over himself to play either for Brighton or in the Championship, so it will probably take a pretty...

So if I read that italan piece correctly, they have given Bologna until 22.00 Argentina time to make a move, which it said is 02.00 in Italy? That can't be right can it? But if so, we could here something by the morning one way or the other?

Yes so I believe, but we didn't put a bid in 6 months ago as was reported on Calleri, which is a shame as he would have been free. My understanding is that our first bid went in the same day as our second bid was accepted, and Knockaert signed the following day.

This, time to move on from these south Americans and concentrate on signing a striker who actually wants to come to us. Knockaert showed how quick things can be done if all parties are willing.

Strange that the same website reports that Inter are still negotiating a deal for Calleri

You are probably right of course, I just felt that they have tried it on for so long, what with Arsenal, Chelsea and Inter Milan all being apparently interested and in the Inter case deal done, well all of that is now clearly bollocks. If we were to sign another striker, and they then try to...

Is it possible that Mr Bloom is playing poker with them? Now that inter have apparently pulled the plug on any deal for Calleri, and no firm interest from elsewhere, it would seem to be an ideal opportunity to drive down the price.

Yes I think you're right it was 10m$, I wouldn't be surprised if we have gone back in, if it has been rejected, after all that is a huge bid for us in the first place, I would have thought we were pretty determined to be making any bids in this region.

The more I'm thinking about this, the more I think he might be coming here, If we had a bid accepted at !0m euros, why would Inter offer 12m? they wouldn't, they would just offer the same. As basque seagull says he doesn't want to sit on the bench, but I doubt Inter will promise him anything...

ok my Spanish isn't all that good, but the little bits that I think I could make out, his father says there has been one bid from a major club of 12 million Euros (lets not forget he is his agent and will try and talk the price up, seeing as both he and his son are both likely to gain from...
