Not an SAFC fan (Man City) but apparently you lot are lining up a bid for a "marquee" overseas striker according to my source (an agent, but not involved directly). Signing would be a record fee & "statement of intent" if the player agreed terms. I can also clear up Nzogbia & Gibson for you. Nzogbia : Willing buyer, willing seller & willing player. But agent advised to see out contract if £68k wage not met. Gibson : Willing buyer, willing seller & willing player. Agent pushed terms & deal broke down. This my own speculation but you may get Onuoha if you wanted him
- out of favour with Mancini & dropped from pre-season tour. 3 years left on contract so £6m sounds about right. U could play him up front against Chelsea :-) have a good season fellas. BLUEY
