Summer 2013: Villa Transfers, Speculation, Suggestions and Rumours

[villa kicks]

All over Twitter that RMC radio (French station who are quite reliable apparently) have claimed Belhanda has 'chosen' to come to Villa.

Just hope its not another Juniho ( or whatever his name was ) Im excited now.

me too sounds like we moustaffa him and could be fez-able!  Tararbt braap !!

Nicked from Legion...

"Christian Benteke was today linked with Aston Villa after the media ran out of clubs to link him to"

Who nicked it from kendrick!

Oh Yes Kendrick, not Legion...oops

[PGW]

One of our transfer targets is no longer available to us, i've just noticed on BBC web site that Benni McCarthy has retired from football!!!

Ah well, that was over before it started wasn't it. Strange that the player has talked it up himself, and sure looks like he would make a quality signing but the fee was never going to let it happen was it.

[IFWaters]

What fee ?

I wouldn't be giving up on it just yet. When the chairman and the player mention us by name, it means there is interest from us.

Kendrick is a good journalist but he has been wrong many  times too- lets wait and see.
I am trying not to get carried away with the various links until the ink is dry  on the contract .

I bet you get carried away before you blink.

I think its unlikely, and the whole list of clubs his chairman came out with was odd in the extreme. Maybe he was trying to get one of them to bid after we had stolen a march? Still i'm also of the opinion Kendrick doesn't know crap apart from what his french journo contacts are telling him and they're just the French version of him...

[PaulWinch again]

Ah there goes the cold water.

[LeeB]

Maybe he's seen PWS's pics of the view from the top of the new library and wants in.

thinking about it he could easily fabricate to get teams interested from the premier league and these other teams may not have been interested AC Milan, Inter, Atletico Madrid and Galatasaray  i'm unsure why Arsenal, Newcastle Spurs or Liverpol havent declared an interest and the president hopes a bidding war takes place?

“I have told everyone that England will be my first choice." I expect a deal for this player and hopefully its all true and Villa but when these things drag on it becomes concerning.. Window has only just reopend ..so i would be more hopeful if it was a few days to the close of window as players will be wanting move for sure

Eh? I've only just posted that little gem.

[Mazrim]

I hope Kendrick is wrong, and that's not impossible. Belhanda is exactly the type of player we could do with.
