Big Bad Bob Posted 29 August, 2012 Share Posted 29 August, 2012 Wasn't it reported a couple of days ago/last week that we had agreed a €1.5m fee with Penarol. Or was that wrong or have they tried to renegotiate based on Cortese's crumbling in to the Bologna Chairman's demands??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itchen_dan Posted 29 August, 2012 Share Posted 29 August, 2012 Article just been posted on Gazzetta Dello Sport http://www.gazzetta.it/Calcio/Squadre/Bologna/ The fans rossoblù is in turmoil for the sale of Ramirez to Southampton, in addition to shell out 14 million to the club rossoblù the Saints must, however, overcome the resistance of Peñarol, which claims just 30% of its card. About 400 ultras were crowded at the gates of Casteldebole to challenge Guaraldi with spits, insults and choruses ("servant of Juve" the kindest). He also touched physical contact when the hottest tried to climb over the gates. Escorted by an officer of Digos President then met with a delegation of five supporters asking them to judge on August 31, ensuring that Ramirez will remain if the negotiations will not go into port by tomorrow or, alternatively, the money obtained in exchange for the capricious Niño will be reinvested to strengthen a team still largely incomplete. And 'now one step away from buying Patience and Juve midfield remain hot tracks Tissone and Matuzalem, for the attack remains in pole position followed by Lazio Floccari clivense Moscardelli and the defense always thinks all'interista Juan Jesus. In all this we must not forget that Saturday comes the Milan and Pioli is always free Natali and Perez, the only disqualified after the first round of Serie A. And returning from a round of stop Morleo has low back pain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itchen_dan Posted 29 August, 2012 Share Posted 29 August, 2012 Exactly. Really cant be long now and importantly, cant be any hitches left as they are agreeing deals in principle that are 'just missing signatures'. Means they must be 99% confident the Ramirez deal is going through so they can immediately sign these deals off as soon as that €14m hits their bank account.

BBC would have done more of a service listing some of the lesser names. That said, Basso was always decent at Bristol City, maybe a cheap 2nd option as backup for KD at least until next window.
