Transfer News

Bèbè to Besiktas - it appears that the unknown Portuguese striker will spend next season playing football in Turkey, he is going out there on loan obviously to give him some much needed first team action in a competitive league. A year in Turkey will do the striker a world of good, he is never going to get a chance in the current Manchester United squad - I make him out to be their seventh choice striker, so logically he doesn't get many opportunities. The games he was given went poorly, he failed to impress even against non-league Crawley Town. Ferguson or someone on the Manchester United scouting team saw something they liked about the young striker and the club shelled out a reported fee of around £7million, the same sum of money that they signed Hernandez for that same summer. Here is a video of Bèbè scoring a lovely goal for the Manchester United reserve team.

Javier Pastore is leaving Palermo, his destination of yet is unsure but the clubs rumoured to be in for the Argentine midfield maestro are Chelsea and Real Madrid. Personally, I'd love to see what Pastore could do in England and also I couldn't see him getting into the Madrid team, could you? They already have vast quality in the midfield area with Alonso, Khedira, Ozil, Kaka, Lassana Diarra, Canales, Gago and not mention the two new signings already this summer - Nuri Sahin and Hamit Altintop. Where would he fit in? Chelsea also are desperate for some real good young talent to bolster their squad and Pastore might just be the man for the job.

Mentioning Real Madrid's midfield and how hard it is to get into, Sergio Canales has attracted interest from top european clubs; rightly so. The young Spaniard is a very talented footballer and the likes of Villarreal, Schalke and Wolfsburg are all interested in his services.

Swansea are in talks with Marcos Senna over a possible move to the Liberty Stadium, Senna is out of contract and newly promoted Swansea are looking to add some real quality and experience into their team. 

It also appears Liverpool are eyeing up every player in the world at the moment - the media are linking them with many names. Some of which we believe to be true are Charlie Adam, Stuart Downing and Gael Clichy.
