Yes it's Twitter and yes the season hasn't finished but multiple reports of us raiding multiple teams in Serie A

Whatever the truth am sure there's no smoke without fire. Good to see whatever the seasons outcome.

I'd be amazed if there's any truth in the second one. We will be watching players but I'd be very surprised if we put offers in until it is confirmed what division we'll be in next season (or that they accepted any offers). More likely that we've been watching these players and it's a better story to say we've made an offer.

True but I doubt they've randomly picked out a Serie A player and linked it for no reason. My assumption would be is that word is that that's where we're hunting

Serie A would be interesting as we've not really had players come over from Italy before. A number of our overseas players have been playing in Spain (and a few from Holland recently) so if these reports are true it would suggest we're widening/changing our focus.

Does seem to be reports out of Italy on both of these rather than random made up stuff.

Torino, due club inglesi su Zappacosta

Zappacosta ha giocato poco quest'anno, non è stato titolare nel Torino. A fine stagione potrebbe andar via: in Inghilterra lo vogliono Brighton e Swansea, potrebbe avere offerte anche dall'Italia.

Turin, two English clubs on Zappacosta

Zappacosta has played little this year, is not he held in Turin. At the end of the season could go away: in England they want to Brighton and Swansea, it could have offered even from Italy.

So is this a 'we're still in the Championship'' singing

or 'we're in the Premier League' singing? ???

From what I know of Zappacosta - which admittedly isn't that much - he'd be a useful signing regardless of which division we'd be in.

Higuain from Napoli would be nice, if we can't get Messi that is.

Zappacosta is an amalgam of Frank Zappa and Liz Costa. What other players are there we could sign who are the surname of a musician + the surname of a (relatively) known Albion fan?

(Kings Of) Leon (Dick)Knight is the best I can do for you.

Plus he's already played for us so bonus points.

Glad we've switched or sights to Serie A, the South American bollocks of last close season was frankly embarrassing in the end.
