January Transfer Window

I have a feeling we are in for a busy window.

Coutinho out Lemar in seems very likely at this point in time

Spurs to get all the good players please

Seems Ross Barkley is eager to kill his career.

Theo Walcott: Everton sign forward from Arsenal

Quote:

Everton have completed the signing of Theo Walcott from Arsenal in a deal worth more than £20m on a three-and-a-half year contract.

Walcott, 28, becomes Sam Allardyce's second signing of the January transfer window following the £27m paid for striker Cenk Tosun from Besiktas.

The move brings to an end Walcott's 12-year stay at Arsenal, where he scored 108 goals in 397 appearances.

"There's something about this move I've just felt good about," he said.

Walcott's former club Southampton were also interested in a deal.

But Walcott, who has not started a league game for Arsenal this season, believes Allardyce can reignite his career.

"It felt like it was time for me to move on [from Arsenal]," he said.

"It was sad but it's exciting at the same time and I want to reignite my career and push Everton to win things as they have done before.

"The manager is very hungry and it's just what I need. I've had a couple of chats with him and straightaway I felt that hunger and that desire that he wanted from me."

In a statement, Arsenal said: "We all thank Theo for his contribution to the club and wish him well for the future."

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger admitted he did not want Walcott to leave but said he could not guarantee the England international game time and admitted that was a "sensitive subject" in a World Cup year.

Walcott, who has 47 England caps, has not featured for his country since the friendly against Spain in November 2016.

Arsenal plan to reinvest the funds, with concrete interest in Borussia Dortmund striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Bordeaux forward Malcom.

They are also hopeful of signing Manchester United midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan in a deal that would involve Alexis Sanchez going the other way.

Theo Walcott: Everton sign forward from Arsenal

Its time he moved on. He is the symbol of Wengers last 12 years at Arsenal, lots of promise but ultimately always not quite good enough. Now he's out the club then maybe we can start to look backwards at this current era and forward to new horizons. Strangely I think he will thrive at Everton. At Arsenal - like so many at Arsenal - he was never asked to play his natural game, so good luck to him and I hope it works out.

Gotta love how when United are about to sign someone, suddenly the media hits us with the Transfer Fee,Signing On Fee,Agent Fee, Whole Contract Value and The Carbon Footprint of the paperwork all as the Price of Signing.

It is way yo much money though

What is? You really think he's being paid 500k a week and is on par with Messi? It's Pogba all over again :laugh:

Either way, We are about to Swap Mikhi's contract for Alexis ****ing Sanchez and Ibra's contract comes off the books next year. There's no transfer fee and United has one of the lowest Wage to Revenue ratios in England. It's the same as Liverpool or Arsenal paying someone 150-220k a week after signing th for £40m or so.

It's just funny that no one gave a damn when City wanted to sign him for £60m in the summer.

City pulled out because they refuse to pay him more then any players

Man U love causing drama with the squad

Yeah ok. We heard the same when Pogba and Zlatan were on 8000k a week.

He just isnt going to be a success there with the manager they have

It's going to be a cruel downgrade from those 3 FA Cups he got with us, that's for sure

Wenger said he'd never sell to Man U again after the Van Persie debacle. F&&king lying toad.

Anyway its a lot of money and, there is no doubt, he will make them better but Man U still wont be competing with City. He wont win anything at Man u that he hasn't already won with Arsenal.

Tuanzebe off United so that we never have to play Glenn Whelan again. Great news

Chelsea make surprise Peter Crouch inquiry in bid to sign target man

Chelsea fans must be p*ssed they let Diego Costa go and are now looking at Crouchy.:joker:

Crouch > Morata

Not even sure if I’m joking or not

That's that saga over with :hee:

The deal limped over the line. Its been more like a soap opera.

Imagine carrying more about money then winning trophies

Because we didn't just win 2 trophies last year..

"Van Dijk - £75m + 180K a week (Pre tax) on 5 year contract = £75m + 47m = £122m overall
Sanchez = £0 + £10m signing on fee, £15m to agent, £350k a week wages on a 4.5 year contract = 25m + 82m = £107m overall"

And that's without considering the Agent or Signing on Fee for Van Djik. Liverpool fans can miss me with any chat. Bye guys.

10 million signing on fee. :facepalm:

It was essentially a free transfer. Not surprising. He would have got even more had he waited until the Summer, but it looks like he wanted out too badly haha.

Not sure he would have got a 4.5 year contract if he'd waited so looks like desperation all round. :joker:

PSV signed argentinian attacker Maximillian Romero, 18 yrs old :amazed:

Ajax & Feyenoord have respective deals in Japan & China, for marketing and youth players
