Mauricio Pochettino wants Daniel Levy, the Tottenham chairman, to take a financial hit on Spurs' flops so he can reshape the club's first-team squad, but fears are growing that Emmanuel Adebayor is talking his way out of finding a new club.

Multiple reports claim Juventus have agreed terms with Palermo and Paulo Dybala’s agent for a five-year contract.

Palermo President Maurizio Zamparini confirmed to Adnkronos today that Juve and Milan had met his demands for the forward, which between cash, bonuses and players in exchange will reach €40m.

Juventus representatives met with agent Pierpaolo Triulzi today and multiple sources – including Sky Sport Italia, Sport Mediaset and Calciomercato.com – claim a deal has been struck.

It’ll be a five-year contract worth €2.2m per season plus performance-related bonuses that would take it to €2.9m.

The sum will rise each year until eventually reaching €3m plus bonuses.

i think he has a price, and his hope is a bidding war.


I do hope he winds up at Barca in the end though. Like someone said, Juve got him on a freebie so I think they just want the most value out of him

With this FFP news I wonder if we'll see a slowdown in transfer business until the details are finalized.

England gonna England:
quote:


Manchester City have offered to make James Milner one of their highest earners in a bid to keep him at the club.

But it increasingly looks like the 29-year-old England star will turn down the package – worth £33million – and quit the Blues when his contract expires next month – with Liverpool favourites to sign him, ahead of Arsenal.

The club has become increasingly frustrated by comments, from media pundits and some City fans, suggesting that they have not done enough to keep him at the Etihad Stadium.

But they feel there is nothing else they can do to keep him happy after placing a new, four-year, £165,000-a-week deal on the table – and meeting his wish for more appearances this season.

Milner insists his decision was never going to be a financial one, but would be based on football ambitions.

I like Milner but where exactly is he planning on going where he'll figure more prominently than at City and get to play more the #10-ish role?

He's certainly good enough to do that for mid-table sides all over Europe but can't see him doing so for many CL caliber sides.

No big criticism against him but to simply say that he already plays quite a bit for City.

Sami Khedira


is very close to agreeing a move to Serie A champions and Champions League finalists Juventus.

The German has been weighing up offers for quite some time and right now it is the Italians' he likes the most, especially based on their footballing pedigree.

Khedira has offers on the table from Germany and Italy, but it looks as though it will be Juventus who will get the German. Faced with the possible departures of Pogba and Pirlo, Allegri had asked the board to strengthen the team in midfield ahead of next season and Khedira is out of contract with Real Madrid on 30th June.

The German midfielder is all but set to choose Juventus, mainly due to their footballing pedigree. Even though he was tempted by a move back to Germany, he prefers signing for a club that competes year upon year in the Champions League and challenges for silverware.

Rafa Benítez

Real Madrid will open negotiations with Rafa Benítez next week with a view to luring the Napoli manager back to the Bernabéu to replace Carlo Ancelotti. Benítez, a Madrid fan all his life, started his coaching career with the club's youth teams and served as Vicente del Bosque's assistant with the first team, wants to concentrate on this weekend's match against Juventus while his side are still in the hunt for third place in Serie A.

Benítez was brought into the fold by Del Bosque and was allowed to go to Milan for a year to study the methods of Arrigo Sacchi. Coaching the Madrid first team has always been a dream of Benítez's after a successful career at Valencia (two Liga titles and a Uefa Cup), Liverpool (where he won the memorable final against Milan in Istanbul, as well as an FA Cup and the European Supercup), Inter (Club World Cup), Chelsea (Europa League) and Napoli. With the Partonopei Benítez has won a Coppa and Italian Supercoppa, and guided the team to the semi-finals of this season's Europa League.

After Benítez has overseen this weekend's match against Juve it is expected negotiations with Madrid will ensue.

Yeah, I don't get that move at all if it happens.



In other (typical) news, Spurs seem to have been linked with a ton of players that we will undoubtedly not sign.
