Summer Transfer rumours

[Slim]

Reports out of Italy Zabs off to Roma for £2.5m.

Confirmation reports, but nothing from either club. (About 1 hour ago)

[Mase]

I'll be genuinely heartbroken when/if Zaba leaves, and I haven't been upset when a player left since maybe Tiatto. SWP I was gutted he was leaving us but thought he was moving on to win things.

But Zaba...I wanted him to retire with us. He literally bled for us.

Pep is after Bravo to replace HART.

On a personal note...I couldnt give 2 shits if we sold Hart..never liked the cocky cunt to begin with.

Interesting one, Bravo is actually a leader for his country and a big voice in the dressing room at Barcelona.

MEN reporting that pep will keep hart as his no 1 even if he brings another keeper in

Celta Vigo's Nolito 'to undergo Manchester City medical today'

Manchester City are edging closer to completing the signing of Nolito from Celta Vigo as the attacker is reportedly due to undergo a medical today.

The 29-year-old is believed to have been courted by Barcelona as well as City, but the player himself recently claimed that he has not had any contact with either club.

Now, though, reports have claimed that the Catalan giants have pulled out of the race, paving the way for the Spain international to join Pep Guardiola at the Etihad Stadium.

According to The Telegraph, Nolito will fly to Manchester today to finalise the deal, which is expected to cost City £13.8m.

The former Benfica attacker will become Guardiola's second summer signing following the arrival of Ilkay Gundogan from Borussia Dortmund.

Argentine club plan to report Manchester City to Fifa over teen signing

Velez Sarsfield intend to report Manchester City to Fifa over the signing of Benjamin Garre. The 15-year-old recently revealed he will officially join the Premier League giants next month, when he turns 16. However, the move has sparked fury from the Argentine club.

Sarsfield said the transfer was "contrary to good faith, confraternity, solidarity and respect for the regulations applicable to football, all of them characteristics of any club with renowned performance and privilege as is in this case Manchester City".

Their statement added: "We also wish to emphasise that according to Section 19 of the Fifa regulations on the status and transfer of players (2016 edition), international transfers of players are only allowed when the player is over the age of 18, except for exceptional cases, which are specifically stated in the mentioned regulations."

Under Fifa rules, international transfer of players under the age of 18 is prohibited. However, Garre's father played professional football in Europe, according to the Manchester Evening News, and that means Garre would be free to play in England because the country is still part of the European Union until the decision to leave during last week's referendum is endorsed by the government.

The signing was seen as a significant coup for City, as the player had previously been on trial at Manchester United and was also reported to have attracted the interest of Barcelona. However, Garre opted to move to the Etihad Stadium over United and Barcelona, because the club has "one of the best academies in the world".

"I am going after a dream, to one of the best academies in the world, with the conviction that my football will develop," the new City signing said on his Facebook page amid interest from United and Barcelona. "That a club like Manchester City is interested in me makes me proud and while I understand that some may see it as wrong, it is a challenge I have to take, thinking of my career."

City have not commented on Sarsfield's complaint.

[South Stand Balti]

He's 30 in October and I've never heard of him up to this tournament. It's a bit underwhelming but fingers crossed he will do well. Pep obviously knows him and that's what matters.

[Wooders]

First and last time we'll ever hear of him one suspects

[nottsblue]

Apparently Inter have plenty of money as they are after Payet. Maybe they don't want Yaya after all.

Read about this. They put an official statement on their OS. I hope this isn't a screw up by City as we will be heading for a transfer embargo like Barca had.

Uefalona tried to bring Nolito in for over a year now. They wanted him as a first sub for the three cunts up front.

He might be dark horse for us.

[PrezIke]

Latest rumour from El Confidencial via City Watch is we are in "advanced talks" for Thiago.
