I still want to believe that the club is still actively looking at ading more players tonight. There is still one hour to go. Hope OPB is right... Apparently there is a 12 M bid for a Saints player (Shaw or Schenderlin? ) Öliver Price-Bates @OliPriceBates 1h Ozil is DONE stop worrying! Been done for a long time, just formalities happening now. Club concentrating on others
Huge blow for ManU...Herrera is staying in Bilbao... manu carreño @manucarreno 10m Me dicen que Ander Herrera se queda finalmente en Bilbao… Si es así, buena noticia para la Liga y para el Athletic Club… Tom Coast @sardinetrawler 35s It’s over. Manchester United have pulled out “@Abel_Romera_AS: Se acabó el tema Herrera. El Manchester United deja tirado a Ander.”
Wayne Veysey @wayneveysey 4m Arsenal striker twist: Told AFC are working on a new deal for a forward. Unlikely but not impossible.
I doubt it. It's been awful quiet apart from Ozil. Dunno, if journos could report on lowly Viviano, not sure how they could keep other signings a secret.
The pro-Real sporting daily as.com is saying Ozil has passed the medical and that the deal is official. 5-year contract. http://futbol.as.com/futbol/2013/09/01/primera/1378048668_664427.html
Wenger will peddle the story as, "Bee-coz you though ee was gone, and ree-turned, ee is like a nouvel signing."
http://futbol.as.com/futbol/2013/09/01/primera/1378048668_664427.html "Ya es oficial: el Madrid vende a Özil por 45 millones de euros" It's official: Madrid sells Ozil for... In the article they say Madrid has confirmed it.
David Ornstein @bbcsport_david 3m Arsenal will confirm the signing of Mesut Ozil from Real Madrid for €50m (£42.4m) in the next half an hour #bbcfootball #afc #rmfc
