We can't buy anyone before 1St July. I realise sometimes transfers are agreed prior to the window 'slamming' open but they are not that common

Erm I think it slams open on the 9th bud.

9th June for incoming transfers from abroad which have a fee associated to it.

1st July for free transfers and other domestic transfers.

Didn't know that. Wonder why the difference?

Still we can't buy before the 9th so suggesting we're slow off the mark, as some have insinuated, is a little current-modern.
 
Damn guys. You are gonna be here a while longer. I'm on my way in a rental van stocked with beer, toilet roll, disposable bbqs and several meat packs.


Liverpool may have suffered a setback in their pursuit of RB Leipzig midfielder Naby Keita.
The Guinean is top of the Reds' midfield wanted list even with a possible price tag of up to 50m euros.
RB Leipzig finished runner-up to Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich last year but their place in the Champions League was in doubt because of Red Bull's ownership of Austrian champions Red Bull Salzburg.
It had been feared that UEFA regulations concerning dual ownership of clubs would force Leipzig out of the competition, with Salzburg taking priority as a league champion.
It had been presumed that Keita would be more likely to leave the German club if they miss out on Europe's elite competition.
However UEFA has now deemed it acceptable for both clubs to enter the Champions League.

A statement said: "The adjudicatory chamber of the UEFA Club Financial Control Body (CFCB) has decided to accept the admission of both FC Salzburg and RB Leipzig to the UEFA Champions League 2017/18, having found that Article 5 (Integrity of the competition) of the competition regulations is not breached.
"Following a thorough investigation, and further to several important governance and structural changes made by the clubs (regarding corporate matters, financing, personnel, sponsorship arrangements, etc.), the CFCB deemed that no individual or legal entity had anymore a decisive influence over more than one club participating in a UEFA club competition.
"This decision may be appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport within 10 days...
"The CFCB will continue to monitor both clubs to ensure that integrity rules are respected going forward."

That could work against Liverpool's ambitions with Keita already having expressed his desire to play at the top level. “Every player dreams of playing in it and we will do everything in our power to make a difference in the tournament," he said earlier this year. “The fact that we managed to qualify directly for the group stage of the Champions League is fantastic for our club.”

Actually we can. Contracts can be signed, sealed and delivered. We can't register them until the FA until the 1st though.
 
I don't think he is worth £50m, I would rather go for Rúben Neves who is available for £30m-£35m

I don't think Vvd is worth £50 mill, but there are many who would argue that we need to get the few top targets Klopp has identified as being his main priorities and that we should pay more than going rate in order to fully back Klopp and his plans.

Shit. I'd forgotten about this campsite. Alright I'm in.
 
Agent Mane strikes again. Soften them up with a few games of Rock, Paper, Scissors, then before they know it they have been tapped.

"I will pick Scissor, yeah.. but wait, maybe Rock is better. Yes, Rock, I'll definitely choose Rock.. hmm, I wonder what's taking them so long, don't they even wanna tap me up!?"

Apparently Mane and Keita share the same agent. So at least we have somebody we've dealt with before involved. But if Leipzig don't want to sell, there is nothing we can do.
 
There were some stories yesterday about Keita having a release clause but it cant be acitvated until next summer.
It was based on some interview Ragninck did on German TV.

I know its been common for several players in Germany were a release clause is only activated at a certain time in their contract.

Regardless, I think this transfer will be very difficult to get done this summer. Only way is if Keita wants the move and demands it.
But from his comments so far he seems pretty happy to be staying at Leipzig.

Hope we sign him though. Boss player.
 
Not sure he's worth 50m but real mobility in cm would be ace, Can isn't up to it and hendo is injured too often
