Although not bad, we'll still need a class midfielder better than Sneijder. He's too attacking minded for Rafa's linking. Assuming Silva cost around £25 million, we should still have enough cash to land a center mid around £20 M (remaining £7 from Xabi's sell and £13 M from here and there). All and all, we will be in a comfortable situation at the start of the season.

Mate id literally run down my road naked if we got that much

but even at 22 mill + Sneijder it looks to good to be true

Im not bothered who R.Madrid offer as long as they are under 27 and worth at least £10m.

In their valuation or the real world ?

Also whoever said 32 million plus sneijder for Alonso is in dreamland.

22 million and him would be an absolute steal.

Alonso is good but so is Sneijder and he would offer more going forward as well.

The question is would £22m be enough to buy Silva?

Read it again it's not 32 million + Sneijder... it's 32 million cash which IMO is good enough. The Sneijder bit is at the end saying it's not clear whether Sneijder will be used as a makeweight. Meaning if they offer Sneijder and we take him the cash will be reduced... :sleep

Inter possibly in for Xabi??

by **Bammo** » Sat Jul 18, 2009 4:47 pm

So Jose's now after Xabi and our replacement for him Parker?

Cheeky Git :angry:

I think this is brilliant as this could raise his price even more and we cna ask for 25 million each and a player from their squads , from real either robben or sneijder and from inter cambiasso

by **ElNino9** » Sat Jul 18, 2009 6:39 pm

Inter wouldn't give us £25m + Cambiasso. If they did then Rafa would be a genius.

by **Greavesie** » Sat Jul 18, 2009 6:54 pm

what about £30m plus RVN?

by **ElNino9** » Sat Jul 18, 2009 6:59 pm

RVN would be perfect to get back at Fergie for signing Owen. He knows Kuyt and Babel already.

by **tubby** » Sat Jul 18, 2009 8:22 pm

Can't see that happening. So we would still keep Babel, Voronin and NGog?

Apparantly we have bid 18Mil for Aquilani but they want 22Mil. From Channel 4 Footy Italia.

Alberto Aquilani looks set to be the sacrificial lamb in Roma’s transfer campaign, as talks continue with Liverpool over a £22m move.

Earlier this month Coach Luciano Spalletti confirmed his club needed to sell someone – preferably from midfield, where there is an abundance of players – to raise money for the transfer kitty.

Despite penning a new contract in June, Aquilani is set to be that figure, as he would receive the most money on the market.

Liverpool have made an offer of £18m, but the Giallorossi are holding out for £22m and negotiations are set to continue.

Rafa Benitez has picked the Italian as the ideal replacement for Xabi Alonso should the £30m sale to Real Madrid go through.

“We will certainly evaluate any firm offers that come in for Aquilani and consider them carefully,” added Spalletti from Roma’s pre-season training camp.

Aquilani is considered one of the talents on the Italy scene, but has been plagued by injuries and is still recovering from ankle surgery.
