I hope so. Would be best for both parts I reckon. Not a bad player, just not that great either unfortunately.

Today's BBC gossip for anyone querying the authenticity of the claim, although some may hurl toys out of pram if I quote the original source - it's that popular and equally reliable

If he does go for £9m or so, I am very sceptical that Rafa will get all the money to strengthen the team. If he only gets a few mill then what sort of player will we get with that, better off keeping Babel. If he gets a run in the team his value may go up for the summer transfer window.

But he won't get a run in the team.... Rafa has given up on him due to his stinking attitude. Ive never rated him and cant wait for him to go, I just hope we get some of the 11 million we bought him for and Rafa is allowed to re-invest it, preferably on a striker

According to the mirror we have accepted a bid of £11 Million plus clauses from Birmingham for him. He just needs to discuss contract

I hope Rafa doesn't waste it on buying Kenwyn Jones? :no

It was very early morning when I read this but did I see a horrible rumour that Rafa was interested in a swap deal involving Babel and PHILLIPE SENDEROS

No joke, it was in the Mirror today!

Must be a p*ss take. I mean look how well the Greek has done, we don't need cover

by **Roger Red Hat** » Thu Jan 21, 2010 5:01 pm

We need another striker....and fast!.....Van Nistlerooy would fit the bill nicely.....and it would get right up the Mancs noses......especially if he poped one in against them at "Old Tw@tford"!... :bowdown

Lot of rumours circulating today in the Milan press that a loan swap for Babel & Huntellar until the end of the season.

Reports say unconfirmed at this stage but would be ideal in my eyes as a few could games for them and could consider a straight swap maybe + a few million £ in the summer if things work out for both of them!!!!

Or would we prefer £9 - 11m for him now?

Think i'd actually prefer the swap, we get a class stricker and if Babel realises (a big if but) his potential in Italy & then shines at the WC then we could actually turn a profit on him!!!

Oh and feel free to move this post to rumours but thought it better in here a speculation seems to be ever increasing over there.

We have offered a swap deal for Huntelaar with Ry babs goin the other way.

Huntelaar kan naar Arsenal of Liverpool
woensdag 20 januari 2010, door jacobz, Milaan, 15:53, Gazetta Dell Sport

Arsenal en Liverpool hebben zich dinsdagavond laat bij AC Milan gemeld voor de huur van Klaas-Jan Huntelaar. De aanvaller liet afgelopen week ontvallen dat hij zijn Italiaanse werkgever wil verlaten. Arsenal en Liverpool zijn vanwege geblesseerde spitsen al enige tijd op zoek naar een aanvaller.

Ook Tottenham Hotspur zal zich inmiddels hebben gemeld bij AC Milaan.
De Londenaren wil alleen concreet worden als Roman Pavlyuchenko wordt verkocht. Daarbij is ook Ruud van Nistelrooij in beeld.

Huntelaar heeft gisteren zijn zaakwaarnemer Arnold Oosterveer de opdracht gegeven om een nieuwe club te zoeken. \"Mijn voorkeur gaat uit naar één van de vier grote competities\".

Basically says Us & Arsenal have asked for his services, Liverpool where intouch on tuesday evening with both clubs short of strike options, Spurs have also enquired about him, he has told his agent to find him a new club and wants to join one from the 4 top competitions.

YAY lets hope the deal goes ahead!!

by **JamCar05** » Fri Jan 22, 2010 5:41 pm

That swap would be a good idea imo. We would basically get Huntelaar for free for half a season, and if he was any good we could maybe buy him permanently for the money Babel would generate (whether he would go to Milan permanently or be sold to another club in the summer). If not, we could just ship him back and still sell Babel come summer and then buy a striker there (or maybe get Chamakh on a free as rumoured?).
