Olallana Posted 13 August, 2013 Share Posted 13 August, 2013 It´s so weird reports today.

Then there is that Daily Star article that says we made a bid that didn´t meet Romas demands.... What to believe...?? Wasn't the Daily star the report which also suggested the bid was £8m? When we've been rumoured all along to be looking at paying £17m ish. Would be pretty tempted to toss the Daily star article in the bin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless it´s some deal that Roma want to sell to another country and then we could offer more wages.....but weird... I have seen a lot of tweets though that speak of Alfredo Pedulla as "transfermarket expert" so that´s encouraging... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Charlie Posted 13 August, 2013 Share Posted 13 August, 2013 Yeah the Star is rubbish... Would be fair to say we want him badly, Roma will sell. Player probably wants to sign for one of the big boys in Italy but Roma won't sell to a rival unless the fee is increased. We just play a waiting game and hope we have other targets if this doesnt come off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
