Defoe to villa, you've heard it first!

Actually if you look through the threads from the past 4 transfer windonws, you will see that we really didn't hear it here first.

Incidently does bamogo from the congo who drinks umbongo also play the bongo?

I think the clause was that he could leave for something like £9million if Newcastle got into Europe.

Why would he want that clause in there though?

Surely he'd only need a clause to protect his interests, and his interests would be playing in Europe.

Ment to say if they didn't get in. Sorry.

TBF, it's mostly a suggestions/discussion thread. There aren't many 'my friends nans uncles dog said...." links and when there are they're ususaly ridiculed. The rumours posted are normaly from newspapers etc......

Bent is going to WHU so i doubt Defoe will be going ANYWHERE!

Almost certainly wrong on the first count, and probably (not definitely) wrong on the second I'm afraid.

Bent is signing for Spurs - will likely all be finalised within next 7 days.

I said a while ago in this thread that I had 90+% confidence of this happening - that's now increased to 95+%. Fee agreed with Charlton and terms agreed with Bent - all subject to medical and (in my opinion) no last minute arrival of a bid from a top 4 club.

Without checking I'm not sure if Giles Barnes (Derby) has featured in this transfer thread previously, but if so you can very likely scrub him off the list of Villa 'possibles' because the word is he's a done deal for Spurs unless Derby get promotion via the play-offs.

Only two mentions of Bent on the whole of Spurs' newsnow page. In fact more space is given to Jenas £10m move to Everton. If the bent deal was as far gone as you suggest, I'd expect more traffic, esp when newsnow picks up stories worldwide

I think its a very done deal that he is a Chelsea player, but their season is not yet over so they won't announce it yet.

Villa linked with Blades ace Tue, May 15 2007 12:35

Villa are being strongly linked with a £6million summer move for Sheffield United's versatile defender Phil Jagielka.

Following the Blades' drop to the Championship, which may still go to a court case to confirm, Jagielka is set to activate a clause in his present contract which would allow him to move on because of their relegation.

This in turn would spark a scramble for his services with Villa being joined by the likes of Everton, Liverpool and Wigan - who are all said to be on his trail.

Martin O'Neill is looking to bolster all areas of his squad and would have the financial clout to wrap up a deal for the player following Randy Lerner's investment in the club.
