Ishak Belfodil: Everton close on Standard Liege's £10.5m-rated Algeria forward
By Phil McNulty 4 hours ago BBC

Everton are closing in on their third signing of the January transfer window after agreeing a £10.5m deal for Standard Liege's Algeria forward Ishak Belfodil.
Director of football Steve Walsh identified Belfodil, 24, as a potential addition and Everton are now hopeful of taking their spending this month to around the £45m mark.
Everton's transfer activities have moved up a gear since Koeman demanded action after the FA Cup third-round exit to Leicester.
Manchester United's Morgan Schneiderlin was having a medical on Wednesday.
The France midfielder, 27, is expected to cost the Toffees up to £24m. They have already signed Charlton Athletic forward Ademola Lookman, 19, for £11m this month.
Belfodil, who is not in Algeria's Africa Cup of Nations squad, is currently training with Standard Liege at their warm weather camp in Spain but is expected to fly to Merseyside before the weekend to complete the formalities of his move.
He only joined the club in the summer and has had a nomadic career, including spells with Lyon, Bologna, Parma, Inter Milan, Livorno and Baniyas in the United Arab Emirates.

Payet wants to leave West Ham

Football Posted at 17:20

West Ham's Dimitri Payet has told the club he wants to leave.

That might trigger some action!!
He has not looked the same player as last season, but the Hammers have struggled all over.

However..

West Ham boss Slaven Bilic says West Ham will not sell Dimitri Payet despite the Frenchamn asking to leave.

"We have said we don't want to sell our best players but Dimitri Payet does not want to play for us. We are not going to sell him," Bilic said.

"I spoke to the Chairman and this is not a money issue. We gave him a long contract because we want him to stay."

[Zidane]

Payet was very good last season but I always got the impression he was a moody player who only turned it on when he felt like it,similar to the likes of Benteke and Lukaku......this impression may be completely wrong,of course.
If I were West Ham I'd cash in.....if Marseille are willing to pay 19.1 million for a guy who cost 10.5 million that would be a decent profit.
They could well get 20 million plus,maybe......

Another DONE DEAL .......... or perhaps not

EVERTON DENY DEAL

AC Milan might have claimed they have signed Gerard Deulofeu on loan, but Everton are saying no deal has been done.

Everton officials are understood to furious at the announcement as they do not believe negotiations have reached a conclusion.

[747man]

It Doesn't MATA What Milan Say......Everton insist no deal has yet been agreed for Gerard Deulofeu - despite AC Milan announcing they had signed the winger on loan until the end of the season.

Milan declared this evening on their official Twitter account that the Spanish winger would spend the rest of the campaign at the San Siro.


However, Blues officials are understood to be furious at the announcement and are adamant they are yet to reach an agreement with the Serie A side.

Milan later deleted the tweet indicating Deulofeu had signed.

Negotiations have been ongoing for the past 10 days between the two clubs, with Everton having already rejected one loan bid by Milan.

[stattointhailand]

OK so it's from the "currant bun" but it sounds crazy enough to be true

"Pep Guardiola will sensationally let Sergio Aguero leave Manchester City following secret showdown talks at a restaurant, and the striker could join Chelsea. "

10,000 pints a minute, heated seats. Surely the first makes the latter unnecessary? A glass-walled tunnel? So you can enjoy the players clearing their throats and adjusting their tackle, as you enjoy your prawn sandwich.

Had to have a little smile when I read the last line of this bit from Sky ....

WBA LATEST

West Bromwich Albion's interest in Watford striker Odion Ighalo has cooled, according to Sky Sources, and Tony Pulis is instead turning his attentions to other targets.

When negotiation with Stoke stalled last week over the transfer of Saido Berahino, we've been told Albion did consider the option of a swap deal with Ighalo. But now that Berahino has gone, Pulis has decided against a separate deal for the Watford striker.

Pulis does have money to spend, despite shelling out £10m on Hull midfielder Jake Livermore. He's now deciding whether a striker or a defender is his biggest priority in this window.

Hmmm this is Tony Pulis they are talking about .......

Played 22 games 32 Pts, so 8 more 0 - 0 draws from the last 16 games will get to the magic 40 pts ......... bet he doesn't even know what "strikers" are available

Serie A strugglers Palermo make 11th coaching change in two seasons

http://www.bbc.com/sport/football/38761572

Struggling Serie A side Palermo have made their 11th coaching change in two seasons by hiring Uruguayan Diego Lopez.

The 42-year-old, the former coach of Cagliari and Bologna, replaces Eugenio Corini, who resigned on Tuesday.

The Sicilian side have only managed two wins in 21 matches and are one point above last-place Pescara in Serie A.

Palermo president Maurizio Zamparini has overseen about 60 coaching changes in 30 years as a club owner.

Last season alone, there were eight changes and this campaign there have been a further three replacements.

Mmm can't understand at all what could be behind their struggles... just unlucky, I guess..
