- I have confirmed that Stoke City are talking fee with the Houston Dynamo over Geoff Cameron, which stands as the last hurdle to the potential move. There are no other suitors at this serious level right now - but there will be if the Potters bid fails. And last I checked, there's been a snag. How bad? We shall see.
- The transfer whisperers have told me that Aston Villa free agent Brad Guzan is close to finding a new employer... or (wink) is he? Stay tuned. This should be settled very soon.
- Don't expect Michael Bradley to go anywhere quickly. While Chievo director Luigi Sartori is telling the truth that longtime admirers AS Roma and Fiorentina have made contact over the midfielder, I am told by someone who'd know that all clubs are submitting 'requests for information' at this time - in other words, no one has placed an offer on the table yet. And as Mr. Sartori stated yesterday, he believes a big offer will come later from outside Serie A. Who might that be, or at least from whence do they come? I'm on it.

Thanks, Mike. And FYI: my carrots are typically glazed in apple juice, a tiny bit of brown sugar and a hit of Indonesian sambal. :D

Delicious!
P.s. Thanks for the info!
Is the Dempsey transfer front really as quiet as it seems?
TBD. Euro tourneys sorta largely freeze the glitzy item market for a month.
Thanks for the great info, Greg.
I'm going to get greedy and ask about some Diskerud information. Are any teams outside of Gent interested in him?
With Klinnsman's hatred of Belgium I would hate for him to stay..
Technically, Mix is still on loan with a buy option for three more days, so other teams really can't show too much interest.
And suddenly last week, the Belgian papers that had long since announced he was not coming back have woken up to realizing he could stay. The other day, Gent's assistant coach stated that the club had yet to decide what to do with the option.
We'll know soon. And if Gent do not take up the option, I'm sure several other prowlers will suddenly emerge.
As Greg already knows, but to those of us that might not scour Aston Villa blogs, the scuttlebutt is that Shay Given's performance at Euro 2012 was viewed poorly by the higher-ups at Villa. Guzan may be enticed by management to stay with the promise of first team action.
Any news about the guys at Rangers? Would they really consider playing in SPL 3rd Division?
Any news on Brek shea or Juan aguedelo going abroad
When you give a mouse a cookie ... :P
Haha, exactly what I thought Jacob. Sorry for starting the landslide, Greg.
Interesting stuff on Bradley. It sounds like he's gone to the highest bidder. I really like how Chievo is handling the situation...honest and transparent. Bradley hasn't been shy about turning down transfers in the past, though. I'm glad he wants to stay in Italy.
