So Lewandowski on the move then.

He is always on the move, but we wont sign an elder star for a year to replace one of the best strikers. I think if we sign Ibra, then mostly for marketing reasons and to make Lewandowski and Müller move their ass, but not to replace one of them.

Yeah, not a lot of transfers are happening. I hope Real Madrid starts swinging the door soon. We can't just focus on Pogba as the only target when a one-year ban is looming. We need that backup left back (not Coentrao!) and deep lying midfielder.

I think Kovacic and Jesé are on their way out on loans. Maybe also Nacho.

What I hope most is, that we can convince Morata to stay.

Woah.. He's worth way more than that. I thought Arsenal wanted him too?

end of his contract. surprised we got that tbh.

fair play to him though he has wanted to leave for a while but stuck around and did his bit. Hope he does well at Spurs.

Also rumours that Celtic don't get a sell on fee. Apparently the sell on fee was for anything over £12m.

Keane is a great player, potential to be a top premier league defender. Not surprised Burnley turned that down.
 
This Hummels interview in SZ is something else. I always thought he'd be one of the smarter players. He's acting mighty dumb, though.

Pretty much said he went to Bayern because Arsenal, Barca and Real didn't want him and he couldn't be arsed to play for United. That's less than a month since he told everyone he wants to go to München because his family lives there. Hilarious.

That also gives credit to Hoeneß' story that Hummels was the one who approached Bayern and not the other way around.

Official: Real Madrid have bought back Alvaro Morata from Juventus and he will join the squad for pre-season.

I still think we'll sell him off to some other team.

Who cares? Echte Liebe is an illusion made up somewhere north of Lüdenscheid. Being emotionally attached like this will only lead to hate nobody needs. This is business like everywhere else. People looking for chances to improve their career. He chose us and its legit, so whatever story happened is irrelevant.

Madrid may want the money from a big fee to balance the books but if Morata scores a couple of more goals in the Euros, Floro will have to keep him so the fans stay in line.

Apparently Man Utd gone in for Mkhitarian again. This time with a bid in the region of 28m with add-ons. Would be a great addition to the team... badly need someone who's capable on that right wing.
 
Morata wants minutes, and he won't be anything than a backup to Benzema. So we have to convince him if he is to stay.

I can be wrong, but I remember him sitting on the bench a few times in Juventus.
And Benzema is somewhat injury prone and we play 70+ matches a year. He will play almost all games if he stays (mostly as a sub).

He and Pogba would make the Real Madrid team very complete. Zidane wants Coentrao to stay, so the LB position is also good.

Not quite. Real Madrid can only play a maximum of 65 games a year...and that's based on them going the whole way in every competition. If you deduct European Super Cup, Spanish Super Cup and Club World Championship then the max is 60. Last year they played 52.

This whole story is pretty funny. Raiola and Mickytarian boycotted in Donezk, now at Dortmund. Wonder when he starts doing this shit at his new club.

Seferovic might be the worst striker Frankfurt ever had. He was decent at the start when he linked up with Meier and Aigner, but hes shit now for club and country.

I was hoping he would score a bit at the Euros so someone would pay stupid money.

Gladbach was interested last season and Frankfurt didn't sell. Ooos!

edit: I really don't know what happened to him, his finishes are more like back passes.
