Foreign Transfers

First topic message reminder :

Bid for your foreign transfers here. To start the season, there will be two bids allowed per day, this will then decrease to one per day when the season starts. The Special Juan will then answer all of the bids received in the evening. They do not carry over, so you cannot bid nothing all week and then bid five times on the Friday.

The first bidder gets the first chance to sign the player, and if this offer is accepted then they will sign for the original club, regardless of the subsequent offers. But, if the original bidder has not bid enough or the transfer is unrealistic then subsequent bids will then be considered. Any following bids must be at least of equal value to the first bidder.

Please make sure all transfers are confirmed on the foreign transfer confirmation page.

Esteban granero

£7 million r Madrid

Given a lack of opportunities in the last 2 seasons, we feel Esteban would benefit from regular first team football in a very competitive league and an exciting young team. He's still young and a good showing here could lead to a national team call up and maybe even greater things.

Alonso signed

Karl Henry - 1.5m
Wolves to West Ham
Again, his club have been relegated and a chance to return to the Premier League

Jesus Navas
£17.5 mil
Sevilla

It has been widely reported that Jesus is thankfully on the right track with regards to his anxiety and homesickness. He has come through two major tournaments and played well at both. Teammates (Palop) and managers (De Bosque) have commented on the players importance and growing confidence.
We at Chelsea would now like to give him the opportunity to showcase his skills on the world stage. We have been admirers of his ability since 2006 and understand his reasons for not wanting to move back then. We have fantastic coaches that work one to one with players and therapists available for support. We will accomodate his family and make sure he settles in.

Joris Mathijsen
3 Million
Malaga FC

Everybody knows of the financial issues Malaga are in again... now looking for new investment and looking to offload players from the books, Malaga would snatch at that offer, as he's worth around 3 Million pounds. Now at the age of 32, Dutch internation Mathijsen will be looking at probaly his last chance to play in the premier league

Leandro Damiao
15m
Internacional to Tottenham

Spurs have long been interested in Damiao over the past two seasons and its increasingly likely in RL this deal is now going ahead with 15m the mooted figure.

Kind of surprised at a foreign nobody's going for

(I have no cash provisionally

Tell us GSC (I have no cash either)

You could afford it

PM me it GSC. (I have no squad space anyways)

I PMed it to Trebs to give him a hand :P

Well tell me GSC, I won't go for him swear. If I do I release Holt for zilch

I already pmed :P

I ain't gonna sign him GSC. I play boootiful football buh

Dominating

Granero - No - He had links to Arsenal/Liverpool in Jan and would go to a higher club.
Navas - No - His anxiety issues would probably make it hard for him to leave Spain permanantly.
Damiao - Yes
Henry - Yes
Mathijsen - Yes
Nilmar - No

Pablo Hernandez, Valencia:

We at Liverpool have had a good relationship with Spanish players and feel that Hernandez would thrive here as Alonso and Torres did. He's been widely overlooked at Valencia with the focus in the past few years on Silva, Mata and Villa. He is often on the subs bench still at Valencia and with the signing of Sergio Canales from Real, Valencia have a player who can willingly occupy the RW spot if Pablo was to leave. He would get 1st team football here at Liverpool. I would like to offer Valencia a respectable fee of 8m for his services. With their recent money issues, that sort of money would do wonders for them, especially for a player who they clearly do not see as one of their star players, despite his clear ability to be just that.

Karl Henry - 1.5m signed

Alou Diarra
2m
Marseille to West Ham
Looks like he could be making this move in real life, we would have him as the key man in our midfield.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2185876/Alou-Diarra-join-West-Ham-Marseille.html

Alou Diarra Yes

Fraser Fyvie - 500k
Aberdeen to West Ham
Moved to Wigan IRL for a fee of around this and we would like to bring him in at West Ham.

Diarra is a fantastic signing Trebs

Error

You can't do swap in foreigns. Straight cash

Mikel San José
4 Million
Athletico Billbao To Aston Villa

Not quite a first team regular in Spain just yet & didn't quite break into the first team his last time around when in England. Villa would like to offer him the chance to bring youth and pace into the team playing alongside a expierenced back 4

GSC wrote:You can't do swap in foreigns. Straight cash

Ah fair enough

If you hold until monday you might get a good foreign offer for him.

Rafael Cabral
Santos
2 Million

This Goalkeeper is playing in Brazillian football at the moment and we would like to offer him the step up to EPL matches. He will get some game time due to his talent, whilst Santos can take the profits in on another young player. A good deal for all 3 parties, there is no obvious reason why he wouldn't want to join us, they wouldn't sell for a very fair figure and we wouldn't him - so lets do it!

Diego Reyes
Club America
£8 million

After a successful Olympic games WBA would like to take the talented centre back to Europe to continue his development.

Release clause £16 million activatable after one season so if the big boys come calling we will let him move on.

Harry Kane
Tottenham Reserves to full team
£0

Harry Kane has impressed for the England U19 team so we wish to bring him into the squad set up to continue to learn his trade.

I read the gossip column this morning too Hero

Tbf Harry Kane's a good player.

Denis Suarez
Man City reserves to Tottenham
£0

Suarez is a potential star of the future and as shown at Spurs we are a forward thinking team looking to put together a squad of players to dominate for years to come. We're hugely impressed by Suarez for the Spanish u19 squad and wish to blood him in on cup games.

Joshua King
Manchester United reserves to Stoke City
£0

Joshua is a promising striker but with the very likely RL transfer of Van Persie to United, it's another player ahead of Joshua. He has played at Championship level on loan last season but we feel he would be a good player to have in our squad, and would push Crouch and Owen for a place in our side.

Sam Hutchingson
Chelsea reserves to Fulham
£0 (http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/en/sam-hutchinson/profil/spieler_40617.html)
Right at the back of the pecking order at Chelsea at CB. We'd give him a fair shout at playing for us. Wouldn't have to relocate in terms of house. At 23 it's unlikely that he will push for a place at the European Champions

Hutchinson - Yes
Kane, King and Suarez all yes
Cabral - No, he just got called up to the Brazil squad this year and signed a new contract to 2014, 8m seems fairer
Reyes - Yes
Fyvie - Yes
San Jose - Yes

Hutchingson is already at Everton...

Sigh.

Please check this people.

Jack Butland
£2M
Birmingham to Newcastle

We want to offer this talented young English goalkeeper a chance at the highest level, whilst Birmingham - where he isn't necesserilly first choice - will be looking to cash in whilst his stock his high and likely to fall. Therefore, this is a deal which suits all 3 parties.

Matt Phillips to Swansea 3m

This is the rumoured fee in real life for this player to step up to PL level.

Fernando Llorente
Bilbao to Tottenham
19m

Llorente is a long term target at Spurs and with news that he wants to leave and has only a year left on his contract we think the time is right to bring him in as the fee will be reduced from his true worth.

Just to save time, Chelsea had a bid rejected last week due to Birmingham rejecting a £6m offer from Southampton in real life previously. It's gonna be a no.

Fair enough, was chancing my arm a little

Butland is a no as Marky said
Llorente can count for tomorrows bid, unless you'd like to change it.

I would please, I did remove Alonso early on so thought it was fine to swap to Llorente.

Take that up with Nando I guess

Well here's mine for tomorrow...

Dede
Vasco De Gama to Tottenham
6m

Reason: Dede is thought of as being a cornerstone in the Brazil team for the next World Cup and several clubs have registered an interest in the player who has been the best defender in the Brazilian league the past 2 seasons. We hope to use the purchase of his fellow international team mate Damiao as a motivator to tempt the player to join and allow them to room together.

Fyvie 500k signed.

Jaaskalainan plays for me

Sorry

Michael Turner
Sunderland to West Ham
1.5m
Moved to Norwich in real life and for an undisclosed fee. The one article I could find suggest he cost 1.5m
