The January 2015 Transfer Rumour Thread

To early for a transfer tread but.......Slovenia midfielder Josip Ilicic

http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/aston-villa-could-recruit-fiorentinas-4678022




Aston Villa boss Paul Lambert is being offered Slovenia midfielder Josip Ilicic in January, writes Tom Hopkinson in Sunday People Sport .

The 26-year-old has fallen out of favour with Fiorentina fans and the club are looking to move him on in the new year.

Italian side Torino are also keen but the player has still not decided what his next move will be.

Ilicic joined Fiorentina from Palermo in 2012 for around £6.5million but now the Florence-based club will let him leave on loan in January with first option to buy him for around £3.5m next summer.

The midfielder has racked up 26 appearances for his country since his debut four years ago.


 Its good news Ilicic plus another 10 players and we could stay up!!!!!!!! :)

The thought of him being allowed to make any further investments upsets me. It's not the actual signings that bother me so much. It's the thought that he'll be here to mishandle them and not get the most out of them.

Well, we may as well. There will be links throughout December and they may as well stay in one place.

So I've edited the title.

I wonder if we have ever signed the first player we have been linked with ahead of a trasnfer window?

Possibly Senderos. He got him in very early, so I wonder if we'd had any links before that.

Just in case you miss this

http://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/2892/transfer-zone/2014/11/23/6378411/delph-to-run-down-aston-villa-contract-amid-liverpool

Fabian Delph is preparing to run down his Aston Villa contract and leave for nothing in the summer amid interest from Tottenham and Liverpool, Goal understands.

The midfielder has rejected Villa’s offer of a new contract worth £50,000-a-week and the Midlands club are resigned to losing him in the summer.

Delph is likely to be the subject of bids in the January transfer window but the player would prefer to wait until the end of the season to assess his options.

The 25-year-old is currently out of action with a dislocated shoulder and expected to return in December.

Tottenham and Liverpool are among the clubs closely monitoring his situation and Delph would welcome the chance to join either club.

Delph has become a key player for Villa under Paul Lambert and was rewarded in September as he made his England debut.

But Villa are again struggling in the lower reaches of the Premier League - they currently sit 16th in the table - and a high-profile transfer could boost Delph’s chances of cementing his place in Roy Hodgson’s squad for Euro 2016.

Delph made seven league appearances for Villa this season before undergoing surgery after landing on his shoulder in training.

A transfer thread that begins with a grammar error and will probably end with errant signings. Too much to bear.

Messi has been quite cryptic about his future at Barca. We need a midfielder if Delph leaves. It all adds up to a swap deal.

Not at all. Both phrases are, in fact, acceptable. Whereas, 'to early' is a clear cut error of all kinds.

I don't care who we sign in January as long as Lambert isn't here to welcome them.
