Interesting trade rumours out there Man U interested in Ederson. Benfica in turn are interested in their young (Portuguese) keeper Joel Pereira that was on loan to Belenens last year. Rumours make sense as Real Madrid want to buy De Guia from Man U creating the opening. What is complicating the issue is that Juve also interested in Ederson. Benfica interested in Middlesbrough (relegated) player Gaston Ramirez. Good attacking mid. Asking price ? 4.5 pounds. Benfica were interested in him a few years ago but he ended up going to Bologna There are more rumours out their but these seem to carry more weight right now and seem closer to happening.
Wonder is that means Pizzi is leaving? Also can't see Emerson going to Juventus while Buffon is there. Manchester United makes sense but so does Manchester City. Gaston Ramirez is a great player vastly underrated had the misfortune of playing for some average teams I don't see Semedo staying either. Grimaldo I see as 50/50. Benfica should go for Gil Dias. Also heard rumors of Salvador Agra on a free.
True good point about Buffon ( my favourite keeper of all time) but he has hinted at retiring. He said that he wants to retire on top and not on the decline
Ederson spotted in Manchester ahead of his €40m move to Man City from Benfica. A great loss to the Portuguese giants. pic.twitter.com/zj1r2dAIeA— Jan Freðrik Hagen (@JanFHagen) May 30, 2017 Ederson to City for €40 Million looks almost done. Future Brasilian NT goalie.
Pretty much my entire life Benfica has had a great goalie. Preud'homme, Enke, Moreira, Quim, Oblak, Cesar, Ederson to name a few. The glaring disappointment was Roberto. I'd say well come up with a replacement
With all due respect, IMO most of those fall under good keepers but I rank Ederson as a great keeper. He has the ability of stealing games for a team. That is not easy to replace. Yes Im sure we will find a keeper that will be decent enough for us to compete but in Europe we will need a keeper to "steel" a game for us......
Preud'homme was a great goalie, IMO. Enke was very very good. Oblak & Ederson are in their way to being first class goalies IMO.

Jonas and Mitroglou weren't world beaters and our scouts saw something there. Dudes coming on a free. Raul probably leaving?

What do you make of that ? Will he be missed and do you think he'll succeed because I'm not convinced by him
I think that he's an auto starter at United and hes better than David Luiz was when he left here. And yes hell be missed. Someone will step in and we will he fine.
So far: In: Patrick (26, right-back, from Maritimo for free) Haris Seferovic (25, centre-forward, from Eintracht Frankfurt for free) Out: Ederson (23, goalkeeper, to Manchester City for €40m) Victor Lindelöf (22, centre-back. to Manchester United for €35.3m) Hany Mukhtar (22, attacking midfielder, to Bröndby for €1.5m) Daniel Candeias (25, wide midfielder, to Rangers for an undisclosed fee)
Added Filip Krovinovic from Rio Ave yesterday for €3 Million. Smart move. In: Patrick (26, right-back, from Maritimo for free) Filip Krovinovic (21, attacking midfielder, from Rio Ave for €3m) Haris Seferovic (25, centre-forward, from Eintracht Frankfurt for free) Out: Ederson (23, goalkeeper, to Manchester City for €40m) Victor Lindelöf (22, centre-back. to Manchester United for €35.3m) Hany Mukhtar (22, attacking midfielder, to Bröndby for €1.5m) Daniel Candeias (25, wide midfielder, to Rangers for an undisclosed fee)
Marçal (28, left back) was sold to Lyon for €4.5m. Was signed as a free in 15/16, never played for us, and got us a transfer fee. Not bad.
We need to get our heads out of our asses and make some moves. Real moves. I think if Semedo goes we're not winning.
I'm going to be extremely pissed if we sell Mitroglou, Jonas or Raul. We seem to be replacing them with cagoes. I'd love to know where our money is going. Debts? Doubt it, Sporting is in just as much financial trouble and they always hang on and usually don't sell. We're like mop salesmen that go door to door desperate to sell. I'd love some transparency. Getting sick of this year after year, something is fishy. Title is looking so unrealistic for next year. Sporting looks the best on paper and when they win, good. LFV needs a reality check.
