Transfer Speculation / Gossip

[kiddylion]

Probably found someone at Gillingham for 500k instead

[Holte L2]

It's not been reported elsewhere yet.  I'm hoping the Sun are way off.

Before we start pointing fingers at the club, it might be worth waiting to see if it's true and if it is then there may be a good reason for it.

[Des Little]

If nothing else, let's hope that Lambert is aware just how much we need a ball winner/bastard in that midfield an that his plan b is landing at 5.30 today.

The Spanish press think the deal is close;

Edit: To clarify on The Sun, they're wrong to suggest he was set to have a medical at Villa; it would have to be conducted in Spain, as he wouldn't get a visa to come to enter the UK until he is given a work permit.

I really hope The Sun are wrong on this. Aside from the obvious reason, I've been looking for a 1,235,467th reason never to buy that utter wank rag.

"Only two will go into the coffers of the franjiverde entity."

All fear the franjiverde entity.

This was the Sun's last effort of reporting on Villa. Aside from the fact that they got the opponents wrong, mistook Keane for Lambert and failed to identify the sex of the mascot it was a pretty decent attempt at journalism.

Correct.

It may not be true and if it is true then it could be for one or more of a number of justifiable reasons.

Panic over guys, IncogAVFC is reporting that the deal is not off, there's just a 'problem' with the 3rd party ownership.

The case Carlos Sanchez can be very close to closing. The Colombian player is, each time a little closer to joining Aston Villa. The Rock has not trained with the team yesterday, and its representative, Diego Merino, was yesterday in Birmingham to try to destroy the small fringes that have not made Carlos Sánchez is there already.
These fringes correspond Monserrate Hernandez as reported in the daily As on today, with economic issues, and the mode of payment for the player. The signing Aston Villa cost the four million euros, of which Elche see two. The rest of what the English club will pay for Array Europe BV, a company in Amsterdam that have their economic rights.
If Elche receives two million, and finally seems to be not too much money will be won by the Colombian. The daily As, the Elche paid 600,000 euros Record by him 624,750 euros for their society, and 150,000 more in commissions. If we add this amount and subtract it to the two million Elche win for him, the benefit will have been of some 600,000 euros, approximately, a figure that seems very low for a player who has excelled in the World, and by several International teams have fought.
However, this amount can make the LFP loosen as the Elche, today, without the closed template, is very close to putting the budget cap Football League. These 600,000 euros, plus the possible departure of players like Toño, Diego Rivas or Sapunaru can give money to sign one more player.
The problem with the transfer of Colombian midfielder comes with Petxina Events, which holds 25% of the economic rights, after the Elche, at a time of economic hardship, we sold half of the picture that was on the player, staying with a fourth. Events Petxina should stay with one million euros, while the other would be for the Elche. However, to avail himself of Elche which made the Seville in 2007 with Seydou Keyta to avoid having to pay one million euros of the two you will receive. To do this, he will be assisted by Juan Crespo God, a specialist in this type of operations.
The result would be that the player will pay its clause, that is not a sale of the player, but a breach of contract, and then, of course, go to another team.

Really? Surely he's allowed to enter on a short term visa as any other Colombian would? How would they ever do a transfer deadline day deal for any non EU player?

After another sleepless night I can now rest easy in the knowledge that all will go smoothly and that when I awake it will be to lots of shirt-stretching pics and an interview with Woodward on AVTV! ;-)
