Transfer news!

Ok, it`s been a while so let`s wrap up the official stories.

First of all, the story of the month is Edinson Cavani going to PSG for a mere 63 million euros. The saga is over. No Real and no City for him. Apparently money talks, and altough City and Real do have the cash, Les Parisiens have more. And they showed it.It will be interesting to watch him with Ibra, if Ibra decides to stay, of course. Monaco and PSG are going to play one hell of a derby in France this year. One thing is for sure - Cavani will score a lot of goals.

Aurelio De Laurentis, Napoli president, said that City didn`t want to match his asking price. Frankly i can understand their desicion - but to spend that money on two players (Negredo and Jovetic) that are realistically lower class then Cavani is a questionable desicion. We will see if the 27m spent on tallented Jovetić is justified, but 25m for Negredo sounds inflated. Luckily for Sevilla, he had his best season behind him, so they seized their chance to monetize. Pellegrini is a man who can turn average players into excellent team members (Joaquin, Toulalan, Eliseu..). And by looking at Isco`s develoopment he surely can help young stars.

As for their United neighbours, they are quiet for now, and except Zaha and a rejected Fabregas bid they hadn`t been doing anything but talking about Rooney. Moyes stands firm and repeats that he`s not for sale but on the other hand says that he is a backup striker for RVP. And i think we all know that Wayne Rooney doesn`t like being a backup. He is England first choice striker//support striker so he won`t be sitting on the bench for long. Chelsea made a formal bid, and i don`t know where and how he would play there alongside Lukaku, Demba, Torres and Schurrle but i think Jose knows that Shrek is too much of a chance to miss it. And if he gets him someone is heading to the exit door.

Barca sold one of their prize Masia assets to Bayern. Thiago Alcantara reunited with Pep Guardiola. Bad move, by all means. If there is one club where a midfielder can`t get lot of playing time, except Barcelona, it is Bayern. Schweini, Gustavo, Martinez, Kroos, Muller, Gotze. I don`t know where he thinks he will fit in and who he`s gonna dump out of starting XI. He could do the same in Barca but that`s his desicion and we`ll see if he`s done it right.

One club that really surprised me with great moves is Juventus. Llorente came for free, Tevez came for 11m + bonuses and icing on the cake came with Ogbonna, great defender who arrived from Torino for 15m. They will destroy Serie A, that`s for sure so all that is left is a strike on Champions League. Another important (and a bit sad) news comes from Italy. Legendary owner Massimo Moratti apparently sold the biggest stake in Inter to Indonesian magnate Erick Thohir. Seventeen year old reign is coming to an end, and altough he had his downs, he is a legendary face in world football, a true fan that did everything for his club. Inter has some financial issues and Thohir is there to solve them.
