Transfer Rumours 2013/14

But born, nonetheless, in the modern day capital of Uzbekistan and he plays for Nigeria hence 'Russian'

Birthplaces are completely irrelevant in discussions about a persons nationality. Jus Soli was not practised by the Soviet Union and is not practised by any of it's successor states. He is Russian and Nigerian, he most certainly isn't Uzbek.

People can have more than one nationality and belong to more than one ethnic group at a time, it's hardly rocket science.

Apparently Wenger was interested in signing Stevie Wonder but he turned them down as he couldn't see them ever winning anything

Hate the Milan clubs' transfer policy. Never particularly liked Juventus but they've built a very strong team and are always trying to improve, on the other hand Inter and Milan just take the money, run, and go and buy some no-hoper.

Sky Italia reckon Milan are trying to get Super Mario for ~€20m.

Haha. Was good timing, but I was thinking more along the lines of Mesbah, Constant etc. If Balotelli did go to Milan I don't know whether he'd actually knuckle down or not, could easily go either way. He'll end up there eventually though at some point.

Apparently Drogba and Kolo Toure are close to sign for Galatasaray. Signings for the future, eh?

Sky Italia are saying Milan have/are about to bid €23m for Balotelli and that they're close to reaching an agreement with City. It could happen!
