Liverpool
Rafa is after 2 more midfielders with creativity:
Rafael Van Der Vaart will be one. He will be available for very cheap money–around 8mil and he will replace the Spain–bound Luis Garcia who Benitez feels isn't one of the players who can pull it off every week. Previously, Rafa has dealt with his inconsistency, but with funds, Luis will be replaced.
The other midfielder will be Daniel Alves who will compete with Pennant but can also fill in at right back. He will cost in the region og 15mil
Rafa plans to sign 2 strikers (as well as Voronin)
Carlos Tevez will be the only major striker coming in and Liverpool will splash out 25mil to get him.
The other signing will be Michael Owen. Rafa originally wanted Eto'o but will not lose ALonso or Sissoko. He sees Owen as a bargain at 9mil + Hyypia.
In defense only 1 player will arrive.
This will be Gabriel Milito for around 13mil. Although Rafa trusts Agger, he feels in some matches he is going to struggle. Milito will also provide excellent cover and will push for first team, unlike Hyypia
This will be HIS BEST team
Reina/ Alves/ Carragher/ Agger/ Aurelio/ Gerrard/ Alonso/ Mascherano/ Van Der Vaart/ Tevez/ owen
Do not expect Riise to play so much at LB– especially in the big games.
He may even be sold if a bid of over 15mil arrives
Liverpool have 5 main transfer targets and will then buy around them:
Samuel Eto'o (14mil+Alonso)
Carlos Tevez (22mil)
Daniel Alves (16mil)
Rafael Vander Vaart (7mil)
Gabriel Milito (13mil)
If these players are aquired, Rafa will listen to offers for Bellamy, Kuyt, Garcia and Hyypia. Alonso will go in part of the Eto'o deal. Rafa would rather let him go than Sissoko. Bellamy and Hyypia will go anyway.
As well as these players (who could cost up to 75mil) he will go for cheap players and those with potential–just to fill the squad (ie Voronin)
Hicks and Gilette will demand that if Rafa wants all of these signings, they must recoup at least 30mil from players leaving and get others of the wage bill:
Dirk Kuyt (12mil)
Craig Bellamy (8mil)
Djibril Cisse (6mil)
Florent S. Pongolle (2.7mil)
Anthony Le Tallec (0.5mil)
Sami Hyypia (Free)
Bolo Zenden (Free)
Robbie Fowler (Free)
Jerzy Dudek (Free)
Luis Garcia (5mil)
Mark Gonzalez (5mil)

To the West Ham fan who reckons they will sign Luke Young from Charlton you won't young can't stand Curbishley he didn't talk to curbishley for a year and put in a transfer request while curbishley was at the club as soon as he curbishley left he retracted his transfer request, His most likley destanation is Newcastle, Everton or Portsmouth and Portsmouth fans be worried you will see why we got relagated if you have a back four that includes Young, Herman and Traroe.
Too bad for Celtic and marseille about Stephen appiah, when Juventus come calling u don't think twice, he will be moving to juve once again this time as an assured regular, Arsenal might hav a say but he looks 2 be off to turin:
more moves:
Nigel RC to Newcastle
Parker to West Ham, but both moves won't hav anything to do with each other
Reyes to Atletico
Lucky Spurs are getting the best of the youth Younes Kaboul within the next days
Baines, Nugent Fernandes 2 Everton
Shittu, Boulahrouz, Ben Haim, Kaladze, Wes Brown 2 Newcastle
Habib Beye 2 Reading
Jacques faty, gragnic, Cisse (6m), aruna dindane, pedretti, emerse fae 2 Marseille

Benny McCarthy to Chelsea, what a buy for them!
Louis Saha 2 Lyon, Tottenham
ps I really don't pay attention to some people who send rumours here, speicially the ones who say they know people from clubs, they are the ones who usually post utter nonsense, but I gotta take my hat off for =v1= a realistic lad who I think really knows his footy, Aaron
Scunnthorpe manager nige Adkins has revealed he has had talks with top Premiershipship clubs about loans. The top 2 that have come out are gabby palletta and ben Sahar from Liverpool and Chelsea respectiveley who both would go straight into the first team
Also heard the rumour of Taylor to Villa for around 5–6mill. Know the medical doctor at pompey and he says Viduka or Yakubu will come, NOT both. Muntari has stalled over Groin Injuries and has been operated on in Paris.
Jacques Faty of Rennes will be a Reading player by the en of the summer.
=v1=
WOLVES Just to confirm previous rumours, Wolves have agreed a fee with Scunthorpe (thought to be £2.2mill) for Billy Sharp and he will discuss personal terms over the weekend and complete medical and the transfer by the end of May. Sharp wanted to join Wolves as wants to work his way into the Premiership with Mick McCarthy rather than jumping ship, and is relishing joining Andy Keogh up front again.
To those saying for Silva to join Liverpool–no chance. Valencia will not sell unless the price reaches his buyout Clause £40mil.
Same with Villa but Valencia would let him go for upward of £45mil. You watch–next season he will not be worth more than £20mil!
Ibrahimovich is not going to Milan or anywhere for that matter.
Shevchenko and Ballack are going nowhere
Bad rumours Villa fans. It appears that there isn't as much money in the transfer kitty as first hoped and it's likely that £12–£15 million is the budget. Bellamy is a probable arrival and Jagielka may be the second big signing. Also a possible bid for Reo–Coker, subject to the price
Rafa Benitez will pull out of a deal with Gabriel Milito. This is because he wants a central defender who can play on the left–like Heinze. He is now chasing Chivu and Kaladze.
Aston Villa are set to sign Nigel Reo coker for £8 million and Craig Bellamy for £7 million. Luke Young is also a target for Martin O'Neil.
=v1=
Dimitar Berbatov will not be signing for Manchester UNited. However, Louis Saha will still leave the club with possible destinations being Lyon and Everton. Instead, Man United will sign two out of Huntelaar/ Torres/ Eto. Either Wes Brown or Mikael Silvestre will leave not both. Kieran Richardson will move on loan or permanently to Sheffield United. SAF will also sign Stewart Downing from Middlesbrough who will eventually suceed Ryan Giggs, Craig Gordon will be signed from Hearts for 8–10 million. Van Der Sar will leave the club rejoining Ajax.
Man United squad:
GK: Foster/ Gordon
RB: Neville/ O'Shea
CB: Ferdinand/ Vidic/ Pique/ Brown
LB: Evra/ Heinze
RM: Ronaldo/ Park
CM: Hargreaves/ Scholes/ Carrik/ Fletcher
LM: Giggs/ Downing

Giles Barnes has agreed terms with West Ham, he will sign a long term deal on around 35 grand a week, the fee is still being discussed, possibly around 4 million plus tye Mears.
Details won't be made public until after the play off final at Derbys request.
West Ham Rumours:
West Ham set to pay £7 million plus Marlon Harewood for Charlton's Darren Bent (who will be new number 10 at Upton Park) .
West Ham are also selling Nigel Reo Coker and replacing him with Scott Parker, whether this I will be a swap I am not sure, it depends where Reo Coker wants to go.
The only other signing will be Nickey Shorey of Reading for £5 million. This is due to the almost certain departure of Konchesky.
Also to leave the Hammers are Carroll, Newton, Sheringham, Mears, Katan, and most annoyingly Anton Ferdinand =/
–MMM–
Newcastle United will sign Matt Taylor for 7m and Leighton Baines for 4m and giles Barnes to replace sibierski for 3m. babayaro will leave to Birmingham for 1m and Stephen Carr to Rangers for 1. 3 also Emre out to Bayern Munich for 8m.
I don't know if this is true but my mates dad is a friend of Curbs and Nigel Reo–Coker is going to Tottenham and Tevez will stay until the end of next season. Also Dean Ashton will be sold.

Steve Sidwell Free

Man United will most probably not move for a 'world–class' striker this summer such as Fernando Torres or Samuel Eto'o, but instead could plump for Heerenveen striker Alfonso Alves. The Brazilian has scored 34 league goals in just 31 games this season, including five hat–tricks. The Eredivisie outfit could struggle to hold onto him this summer if one of Europe's elite take an interest and could decide to cash in on him if a bid of £8–10million comes in, making a tidy profit on the £3million they paid to sign him last summer.
However, Sir Alex Ferguson's main target this summer is Klaas–Jan Huntelaar, a former–Heerenveen man himself. Huntelaar has scored more goals over the past two seasons than anyone else in Europe, and at just 23 has established himself as a potential great. However, as Ajax have now qualified for the Champions League, the Dutch clubs resistance to keep the man who has replaced former United star Ruud Van Nistelrooy in the Dutch national side will be stronger than ever, but Sir Alex is desperate to clinch the signing of Huntelaar to boost their striking options and help their assault on Europe. A bid of £18million will secure his services.
After finalising the £17million signing of Owen Hargreaves, the Red Devils are looking to further enhance their midfield by securing the services of Sporting Lisbon winger Nani, Cristiano Ronaldo's best friend and the man they see as the long–term replacement for Ryan Giggs. However, Nani has just inked a new deal to keep him at the club till 2012, however his release Clause in his contract states he can leave if Sporting receive a £20million bid. United will complete the signing of the Portugese whizzkid for an initial £14million, rising to £18 depending on appearances for the club.
Wednesdays main targets for this summer
lee grant. Derby gk
Neil alexander . Cardiff gk
Steve watson. wba d/ m#
Billy Sharp . Scunthorpe fwd
Neil Lennon . Celtic mid
brian mcbride . Fulham fwd
Various sources in Leeds and N. Ireland are hinting that David Healy is off to Coventry this summer for around 1–1.5 million initially, will rise to 2. 5–3 million with appearances/ promotion. Will be joined at the Ricoh by Barnsley's Dan Nardiello.
Will likely mean an exit for Dele Adebola, Ipswich a re a likely destination and also Kevin Kyle could head to Elland Road as part of Healy deal.
– WHUFC JIMMY –
milo of togo has been spotted at Upton Park this week it is set to be announced in the coming weeks he is an explosive midfielder with a great touch. Zaga of saudi arabia (gk) is also being lined up for the number 2 spot at whu.
other rumours ciril tale is looking for a move to the Premiership with Everton Liverpool Manchester United Chelsea Arsenal totterham but is expected to sign for West Ham for a small price tag.
Scott Parker will be annouced as a West Ham United player with coker going the other way + 3 mil by the end of this month.

Arsenal rumours
Arsenal are moving for Lyon's eric Abidal after Tottenham beat them to the signing of g bale. They are moving for Torres or teves for replacements for Henry and Reyes.
Reys will move to athletico Madrid and Henry to Barcelona.
Micah Richards will come to the Emirates to be Gallas's replacement as he is heading off too Real Madrid. Flamini will move to Italy because he wants first team football.
Craig gordon will also be an Arsenal player to replace lehmann in The Arsenalnal goal.
Arsenal team
GK–Gordon, Fabianski, RB–Eboue, Hoyte, LB– Clichy, Abidal, CB Richards, Toure, Senderos, RM–Hleb, LM–Rosicky, CM– Gilberto, Denilson, Fabregas, Diaby CF– van Persie, Adebayor, wallcot Torres or teves.
Bale didn't snub United or Arsenal – If they wanted him they would have go him. They didn't think he was good enough, obviously. Oh and to the Spurs 'fan' who said Walcott hasn't done well, he's made more assists than Aaron Lennon and has played less games. Also he's been injured for alot of the season and when he's been playing he's played through injury.
Reading set to sign Paul Brooker on a free transfer.
Its going to be a busy season for Benitez with around 50M to spend! Hes already tied a deal up for veronin, and had virbualy agrred a deal for daniel Alves 13.5M and milleto (real Zaragoza) 5M . He will then make he's way towards targetin Eto'o as he's number 1 target, if not poosible he will targer Tevez for 25M. Tevez won't think twice as he is a close freind of our top signing Macherano! he may also move for mathew Taylor as a make shift leftback/ mid.
While leaving Madrid yesterday after a weekend away with friends I bumped into the Atletico Madrid team who were leaving for their away game with Gimnastic, while getting a picture taken with Torres outside the Replay rumoursagents away from the rest of the team I got him to autograph my travel guide of Madrid. I showed him my Liverpool crest from inside of my jacket and he winked and gave a smile which was a change from his stern face.
I'm not saying there's anything concrete there but this along with the armband he showed some weeks ago and the fact that Guillem Balague also reckons the player has given up hope of taking Atletico into the CL.
Wayne
Reading set to sign Rennes centre back Adailson for £2m.
Newcastle have been keeping tabs on Jimmy Briand, recently called up to the French squad and is likened to Thierry Henry. Arsenal, as well as Lens and St. Ettienne are also chasing him.
Birkir Bjarnason, whose contract is up, has been offered deals by some Premiership clubs including Reading.
Dennis Boskailo is a target for Watford. The 6'1 defender is yet to play for Djurgarden, but with Dan Shittu likely to leave he is seen as a replacement figure.
Dan Black is a target for a couple of League 1 teams. The 6ft long striker is some what of an unknown and could be picked up for less than 10k.
Reading F.C. Nicky Shorey, will be leaving Reaqding F.C.in the summer. However he will not join West Ham or Newcastle, but will infact join Arsenal, the team he supports, in a deal worth Song/ Aliadiere and 3m – Wenger sees Shorey as an ideal player, to challenge Gael Clichy for the left back spot. Once the deal is completed and either Song/ Aliadiere join Reading, expect Armand Traore to join Reading as well on loan for the season. Come next January, if Kevin Doyle has scored about 10/ 15+ goals expect to see him leave to: Newcastle/ Tottenham/ Bolton/ Everton. No other first team players are likely to leave Reading. Players coming in are: Song/ Aliadiere=SWAP Traore=LOAN Jagielka=6m Foster/ Carson=5m/ 4m Kamara=5.6m Bouazza=2m Koncheskey=3m C. J. Tyler
All the transfers at Liverpool are starting to happen in a couple of weeks. Rafa has gone on holdiay and his return will co–incide with the end of the Spanish season. he is getting rid of Dudek, Fowler, zenden and gonzales as we already know. he will also get rid of Bellamy (who is likely to go to Villa or West Ham in a swap deal with Tevez. Rafa is still considering the future of Sissoko but it is more and more likely he will leave for the right price. hyypia may also go if Rafa gets Milito.
his shortlist of strikers are Eto'o, villa, Torres, bent and Tevez. he has no interest in Michael Owen who he sees as "past it". Torres and Tevez are the biggest possibilites (Tevez because of the Mascherano link while Torres "likes the look of Liverpool". he wants to go to England) .
Right! Sunderland are not going to sign players amounting to £30+ million. he has publicly stated he aims to spend 15 in the summer and 10 if needs be in jan. however, jussi jrom Bolton is almost certain as he wants out and it looks like eithe wardy or fulop or stopping in the championship. we need centre backs so expect moves for hypia, evans or/ and Brown. full backs are a necessity so expect Parnaby, simpson and 2 left backs to sign (not bridge although I would love him to) . Gravesen and Barton is also a probability at this stage as Keane looks like the only manager who thinks he can tame him. And yes, Nugent may sign with John AND elliot going the other way plus £5 million. gudJohnso. keep dreaming lads
trust me
haway lads
Reading will complete the signing of Sami Hyypia next month along with Rennes striker Jimmy Briand.
This is hard fact, My cousin is in in the medical staff at Easter road (hibernian) and he has heard that Tottenham are after ivan sproule but Collins will only sell if Mido comes the other way. true stuff, this will happen
Martin 'Mad Dog' Allen will be making Izale McLeod his first signing. Other rumours going around Leicester City are that Milan Mandaric had already spoken to Arjen De Zeeuw, Bruno N'Gotty, Lee Hendrie, Danny Murphy, Neil Lennon Paul Dickov and Lee Bowyer before the announcement of Allen. Milan cancelled a family holiday to do his own scouting mission so he did not miss out on the signings he wanted. Whether Martin Allen will want these players is yet to be seen but as the signings aren't official, I'm pretty sure he will have the last say.
Champions League finalists Liverpool will juggle with their squad over the next three months in an attempt to challenge on all four fronts next season. Jerzy Dudek, Robbie Fowler, Boudewijn Zenden, Mark Gonzalez, Fabio Aurelio, Anthony Le Tallec, Craig Bellamy, Momo Sissoko and Sami Hyypia will all be allowed to leave the club in the summer with new owners George Gillett and Tom Hicks promising a massive warchest to bolster the playing squad at Anfield. Villarreal forward Diego Forlan will join the club in a £12m move to challenge Peter Crouch, Dirk Kuyt and, should he make the switch, Darren Bent who is almost certain to leave Charlton. Zaragoza defender Gabriel Milito will move to Merseyside to replace the outgoing Hyypia, with the potential of a swap deal not out of the question. Other than that, you'd have to ask Rafa Benitez but this is what I've heard.
Pavel Nedved to Portsmouth. near done deal. would hav turned up at Newcastle but pompeys money from oil will see them clinch his signing!
all this from a Blades fan!. with sources.
Hey – Where are all the Newcastle Fans? Exciting Times at SJP and you lot have gone silent. BS wants to sign the following – Eidgur GodJohnsen (loves cold weather), Baines (loves anywhere that is not named Wigan), and Reo–Coker (loves any manager that is not named Curbishly), ane Hyppia (just loves the fact that he is still playing somewhere) . Leaving will be Owen, Carr, Babayaro, Dyer, and others that will do something to get under Big Sam's skin this summer. Howay the Toon!
Everton to announce the signings of Phil Jagielka for £4.5m, Leighton Baines for £5m, Dave Nugent for £5m and Manuel Fernandes for Season–Loan once the Transfer Window re–opens on 1st June. Jagielka, Nugent and Baines expected to be completed by Monday as the 3 Evertonians are eager to push the deals through quickly, ready to train with their Boyhood club as quick as possible. Moyes is still holding talks with Benfica over the transfer of Manuel Fernandes as there is debate over the fee Everton would have to pay to make the move Permanent, however my sources tell me that although Everton are trying to push the price closer to £7m and Benfica towards £10m, Benfica have agreed that Fernandes can be bought for £8m at the end of the Loan.
David Moyes has just had an offer for Michael Kightly agreed, estimated at £2.1m and Kightly has already highlighted Everton as his favoured choice over Portsmouth and West Ham, as Man United have decided against bidding for the 21–year–old.
Moyes will also target a Bosman Goalkeeper and a Young Centre–Half as he intends to allowed Iain Turner to join Sheffield Wednesday on a Season–Loan.
Any other signings Moyes will make will be Bosman, Loan or Cut–Price deals as he intends to minimise spending, but he will sell Andy van der Meyde (£1m to FC Twente) and James McFadden (£3m to Celtic) to give him something to work with in January.
New deals for Anderson Silva de Franca, Bjarni Vidarsson and Patrick Boyle are also on the table, but the main Focus will be Mikel Arteta penning a new Five–Year deal once Manuel Fernandes signs on Loan.
I have heard that mick McCarthy is going to snap up a non league player in mould of kightly who can play on left hand side. also Steve morgan is set add to another board member if we go up
Flamini is set for a loan move to Wolves as Murray is all set to go to Arsenal for 4.5 million pounds

Hibernian Football Club will unveil the signing of Stephan Klos on Tuesday. Daryl Duffy will be on the books by Thursday. John Robertson will be handed a coaching role and Collins will pull off a jaw dropping signing by next Monday.
Husref Musemic is to be the new manager/ coach of Hearts. He had a short time at Hearts as a player but has had some success as a manager with FSC Sarejavo, though the decision to appoint him was before he won the league with them. Vladamir Romaon hopes he is the man to win Hearts the Premier League, and given he is from Vlad's neck of the woods, he knows all about him. He believes the Hearts connection will mean the fans will support the appointment. Stephen Frail will stay on to assist him.

Chelsea buy Tevez for a fee of 25 million pounds after Liverpool turned him down because he was too expensive
If Giles Barnes does decide to leave Derby in the summer, it will be for West Ham, where his father Bobby was a favourite in the 80's. Also joining us in the next few weeks will be Mark Viduka, Scott Parker, Luke Young and Darren Bent. Good times ahead for the Hammers!
I know for a fact now that Jose Mourinho has been in private talks with Sporting Lisbon over the signing of Ricardo Quaresma, the club are hoping to pay about £12m for the winger. Peter Kenyon has also been back up in Manchester and has agreed a £8m deal to bring Micah Richards to the club.
So expect Chelsea team to look like this next season –
3–5–2
Cech; Richards Terry Carvalho; Quaresma Ballack Essien Lampard Cole Drogba Shevchenko.
Or 4–1–2–1–2
Cech; Richards Carvalho Terry A Cole; Ballack; Essien Sidwell; Lampard; Shevchenko Drogba.
guys.
Norwich City have agreed a fee with Scunthorpe for Billy Sharp, it is alleged to be 2.5 million, similar to the fee they matched for Ex–Crewe striker Luke Varney.
ARSENAL RUMOURS
From what I have read in many rumours channel is that AW will finally miss out on Ribery as he has potentially signed for Bayern Munich who will play for UEFA cup instead of CL next season so I am not sure about this speculations any idea if this rumour is real?
And good rumours for Arsenal fans AW, Cesc, Henry had made it clear that they will not be leaving Emirates after only one season in the new stadium so stop spculating them to join other clubs
and come to the transfer window, fans do expect Wenger to bring in "super quality" player as Arsenal need to keep up to standard of 'top 4' he will most probably bring in the following players
Mountari (sportin lisbon) –15m
Richards (Man City) –10m
Saviola –free
Shorey (Reading) –7m
Mexes (roma) –12m
Scott Parker (depends if Silva leaves)
these are the quality players Wenger will try to get as he is doing Deins job at the moment so he may not get all of the players and the players going out would be
Aliadere
Flamini
Senderos
Traore (loan)
Hoyte (loan)
and do expect some other reserves to o and alsosome youngster to come into the Emirates next season and hopefully win something after two troPhiless seasons! GOGO GUNNERS
It was entertainign to read the rumour about David Nugent being at White Hart Lane last week with kevin Davies because I was with the England team all last week and have never met Kevin before nor have we ever played against one another. I am David Nugent
Malaga striker Ivan Rosado to join Valencia for £500k, should they shrug off the stiff competition from Reading.
Carlo Ancelotti dropped a hint that some player whose name, because it would blow up the house, is not to be mentioned, send a sign to them that he's willing to join Milan this summer.
Analyzing the situation there are only 3 possible names this big.
Henry, Ronaldinho and Drogba, others can be easily excluded.
Knowing their intention to sign Ronaldinho, that wouldn't be a secret, and Henry won't go Milan I reckon.
So it is Didier Drogba left. I know that is only speculation, not a rumour but fairly logical. Mainly after Drogba's hint on his future at Stamford being not cemented.
