Shakhtar's Alex Teixiera appears to be nearing a move to Liverpool, on Betfair he's currently 2/1 to sign for Liverpool before Febuary 3rd. On Skybet he's 4/1 to Stay at Shakhtar after February 3rd, excellent moneymaking opportunity.:)

Chelsea seem the only other possible destination and they are at 8/1. After that:

Arsenal
20/1
PSG
28/1
Barcelona
33/1
Man City
33/1
Juventus
50/1
Real Madrid
50/1

Great, so if I cover my back and put a tenner on all three (Chelsea too) and he joins Liverpool I get my money back. Close, but no cigar.

Yes but if he stays at Shaktar or joins Chelsea, you're quids in.


I might get involved...

£10 On Liverpool - Break Even
£10 On Shakhtar - £20 profit
£10 On Chelsea - £60 Profit.

Seems decent enough.

Best of luck. You obviously are reliant upon another club not getting involved this week but that's the gamble.

Personally I reckon him staying at Shakhtar is the most likely outcome and him going to Chelsea is the least.

If you're outgoings total £50 as you've posted, if he goes to Liverpool you would profit £40, If he stays at Shakhtar you would break even and If he goes to Chelsea you would profit £40.

Certainly an excellent moneymaking opportunity for anybody connected with the player who knows his intentions.

Assuming no other interested parties, you could always Dutch it:

£5 on staying
£15.50 on Liverpool
£5.15 on Chelsea

Locks in a 50% profit:

2/1 on Betfair Exchange is equivalent to evens, is it not? No stake back. No problem with Betfair Sportbook.
Which one is it with?

2/1 is 2/1 wherever it is. You are referring to "2" (evens,) an example of the unnecessary decimilisation of prices favoured by the "new" breed of bettor. :sick:

My understanding is that it would count as a transfer to whoever he moves to, which is basically Liverpool or a slight possibility of Chelsea. I think it's fairly unlikely that Liverpool would spunk £30 odd million on a player who would return on loan to Shakhtar for 6 months though,

Looks like a few people must of got on, Teixeira to stay at Shakhtar has come in from 4/1 to 6/4 with Skybet and Shakthar to end up at Liverpool has gone from 2/1 to 1/5 on Betfair.
