The Summer Transfer Window Thread 2014/15

[Chael P. Sonnen]

Sky Sports says Sunderland have signed Costel Pantilimon, very good signing.

Happy with that, it's gonna be a battle for the goalie shirt, hope we keep Adam Johnson but who knows..

Rakitic to Barca done deal.

The boy who cried "done deal".

If you could accompany future "done deal" posts with links to official announcements, that would be super.

[brenchill]

Done deal.

[brenchill]

And here is the Vermaelen stuff: It's happening, people

[Plubby]

That's not a done deal - that's precisely what I posted, you charlatan

[brenchill]

It has been agreed in principle. No way is it not going to happen. It has been reported everywhere.

The Telegraph posted almost exactly the same thing as you did yesterday about Kroos to Utd, then other sites like ESPN and Metro followed suit.

[brenchill]

Well maybe I'll just shut my big mouth.

[Baddar]

Not saying there's no truth to this, but you don't say done deal without it being done deal. :@

That'll be the day

Arsenal are willing to pay 25m for Mario Balotelli.

Liverpool have revived their interest on Wolfsburg's Ricardo Rodriguez.

Cardiff are ready to pay 9m to resign Ross McCormack.

Newcastle's bid for Batefimbi Gomis has stalled, due to his high signing-on fees.

Adam Johnson is a shock target for Monaco.

New Southampton boss Ronald Koeman plans a double bid for Feyenoord's Lex Immers and Graziano Pellè.

Newcastle have revived an 8m deal for Hertha Berlins' Pierre-Michel Lasogga.

Atlético Madrid want Álvaro Negredo as a possible replacement for Diego Costa.

Everton have bid 10m for Torino's Alessio Cerci.

Cheeky bugger

Julian Draxler has confirmed that he turned down an opportunity to move to Arsenal last January, and still wants to play "one year more" at Schalke.

[Lineker]

Joleon Lescott has agreed to join Hull, subject to a medical, on a two-year deal.

[Jimmy]

Best rumour I've heard today is that Spurs are tipped to beat Liverpool to Lallana and Liverpool are gonna sign Adam Johnson instead.

[stokeriño]

Because England.

[TCO]

I'd much rather Lasogga than Gomis. Gomis is exactly the sort of player we should avoid, approaching 30, demanding high wages and completely unproven at the highest level.
