Joel Matip

[doctor_mac]

Twitter rumors that Citeh have declared an interest in him

That'll be a limp ending.

 

[JurgenKlopp]

It has gone very quiet on him

Deal for summer potentially agreed last I heard

Deal for summer potentially agreed last I heard

Yeah, I checked about this yesterday – there were reports that the deal has been agreed with us and then silence. I'd much prefer to have an official confirmation, but I know that sometimes in Germany pre-contract agreements are weirdly kept secret – when Lewandowski was in the last 6 months of his contract everyone kind of knew he was going to Bayern, but there was never any official confirmation and the player and his agent refused to reveal his plans. Only after the season was over did he say that he was indeed going to Bayern.

Apparently on yesterday's European Football Show on BT Sports, Rafa Honigstein described Joel Matip as "Liverpool bound".

Aye, noticed that. Probably best way to approach things

Seen that. Guess it's pretty much sealed, will be confirmed at the end of the season

Because a Bosman involves going to a different European country.

Although i think that would be vulnerable to challenge following the Derici case

 

[Buddha]

All over twitter (even Sky!) that we've made a bid for Matip to join now.

 

[hmmmmm1]

Looks like this may happen this window

 

[dmishra]

6 million bid according to Sky.

 

[Skullflower]

as if. that's one million per month of his contract.

 

[Mystic]

Echo say this is horse.

 

[Judge Jules]

Plenty of neighsayers then.

 

[Hansern]

As said in another thread:

Local newspaper Der Westen report Schalke centre back, Joël Matip has recently held positive talks with Liverpool. waz.m.derwesten.de/dw/sport/fussb…

Echo say this is horse.

Is that the same as bull?

 

[Mors]

Non runner

 

[Dirty Sanchez]

We're just jockeying for his signature

 

[Best Believe It]

Signing players on the hoof.

 

[Judge Jules]

Mane thing is we bring the deal home.

 

[Oliver Twist]

We won't be kept waiting furlong. The deal will be wrapped up soon.

 

[Buddha]

I hope we don't saddle ourselves with too many deals to close on deadline day.

 

[Glen C]

Schalke chairman Clemens Tonnies has claimed there is no truth in Joel Matip’s proposed transfer move to Liverpool.
Speaking to Sport 1, the 59-year-old said: ‘that’s a hoax,’ when asked about the defender’s possible Merseyside transfer.

[Señor Dong]

This would be grand, national exposure awaits!

Aintree signed him yet?

 

[HC]

nope, this one was in the knackers yard from the off.

 

[Buddha]

So it's a non-runner after all.

 

[tombrown]

We shoudl be able to boil this one down & glue it together

 

[Oliver Twist]

Yes, and then put it in tesco's chicken tikka massala.

 

[Judge Jules]

6CM is having a mare in this thread.

Here's equestrian for all of you: Do you think that these are just stallion tactics for another offer to come in?

Good start but you could have done better 😉

Here's equestrian for all of you: Do you think he is just jockeying for position or are these stallion tactics for another possible runner to pip him at the post ?
