Ed, Can you update us on Kondogbia's status is there any talks happening with Seville?

Ta {Ed044's Note - From Ed02 on another page: Kondogbia only moved last summer but Juventus would like to take him in the summer and Begiristain has said he is interested in the player and feels that the club can work with him to be a long term replacement for Yaya Torre. Monaco and Chelsea have asked about his availability whilst Real Madrid were looking to a deal for him that would see a player, Jese Rodriguez, included in the transaction on a loan, sale, or sale to buy back deal. Obviously that is now off the table. Chelsea have turned their attentions elsewhere but Monaco, Arsenal plus possibly Manchester City and Juventus are the clubs that, right now, have a realistic chance of signing Kondogbia - but there is still some little interest from elsewhere.}

Cheers. I think he would be a good signing for us. Also I believe Madrid and spurs are leaving things late so their competitors have little or no time to react

Just heard on tv news. Moyes. saying there is a possibility of new signings this window. This could mean he don't like doing business, so all the world can see. Or, he was signed as Manchester United manager because he is used to working on a pittance of a budget, like at Everton. Now like every one on here I'm not going to get too down hearted until the window has finally shut, however we need to improve in certain areas of the pitch, we can't keeping hoping giggs and such like Can drag us through a possible 60 game season. I'll support Moyes or any manger of our great club for that matter. But surely 1million plus fans can't be wrong. We don't want regular mid table finishes for the next few years.Sign sign . You know it makes sense.

I asked the eds about ozil about a week ago and they responded saying there was no interest, now I apologies and I know this may get repetitive eds but can you cofirm if that's changed or is this still a fabrication? Thanks in advance. {Ed044's Note - I found some fairly long recent notes from another Ed saying there have been two offers in the past year, one in November from Russia and one in July from a German side. It seems that both were rejected. It also goes on to list clubs that would be interested (including Man Utd) if he were available and that the club would prefer to sell Khedira but the player wants to stay and Chelsea want to buy but not at the €42 million asking price. He says this would be the same sort of figure that they would want for Ozil.}

Thanks ed appreciated, oltamistic that there's a chance haha

Agree0 Disagree0

Ed, would Madrid sell Khedira now, with Xabi Alonso out for 3 months? Also, are both Di Maria and Ozil available. {Ed044's Note - I am told (1) Yes, but the only interested club did not agree with the price. (no, I am told).}

35m should do it

Agree0 Disagree0

Ive also read the article from Bild in germany and it claims a large bid of 50m coming in from United this weekend for one of madrids big players who is concerned about the imminent arrival og G Bale, hampering his chances in the world cup. nowhere did it say the name Ozil, can't see it being ronaldo who's worried about his place next year. If it was either i'd be over the moon
