January 2016 - Transfer Rumours, Speculation & Suggestions

[AVH87]

....but I am saying that if he is available there should be!

Unfortunately even Sunderland are a better proposition than us at the moment, as they are only 4 points from safety.

[ClaretAndBlueBlood]

I think we can only expect a couple of loan signings at best, of which Debuchy may be one unless he gets a better offer

[Salsa Party Animal]

if he is available we should try 5 millions plus Sinclair

[SoccerHQ]

I haven't really looked much at this thread and only checked back a couple of pages so apologies if  I am in a 'Why didn't Gareth Barry take the penalty?' moment.

Is there something in this 'other Ayew' for Sinclair idea?

I was quite unhappy about Sinclair potentially going to a direct rival, but getting 'our Ayew's' brother, the one who we thought was the 'right Ayew' for half the season, might not only improve us, but also bond our best prospect to the club a little better.

Swansea want about 15m for him and he's on 80k a week so it's a non starter.

That's that deal dead then !!

So the keeper deal looks dead. Strange decision to reject his work permit.

They are not that stupid!

[Ian.]

Ayew Ayew there's only one Ayew wouldn't work but other than that it would be a fantastic bit of business if true.

Chap at work said that would be easy to get round on an appeal. How he knows I have no idea. Saying that, said chap quite often spouts a lot of crap.

The Croatian translated news, says it is the appeal that is rejected. - How can that happen, if you look at what Chelsea and others bring in?

This was probably the most important missing piece of the 28 missing

So my mate was taking bollocks then!

If that's true that's outrageous if you think of how many European imports Chelsea sign to only send back out on loan.

[ozzjim]

Considering they are part of the EU, and others have signed players from further afield with less criteria it seems extremely harsh.

[phantom limb]

So we can't even sign a player who actually wants to join us?! How low have we sunk etc.

That's what I thought. What happened about free movement and people being able to work anywhere in the EU? Until it's confirmed, I don't believe it.

Some Croatian tweeted  that there is some clause on Croatian nationals about free movement (probably by their own request).
