Scott Sinclair has made his loan move to Aston Villa permanent.

Inter vice-president Javier Zanetti has claimed Internazionale are close to agreeing a deal to sign Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure.

The Serie A club, who are coached by former City boss Roberto Mancini, are eager to end the 32-year-old's five-year spell in the Premier League.

"We are at the stage where we hope we can complete it," Zanetti told Italian paper Gazzetta dello Sport. "Yaya would give us that leap in quality."

Tottenham have agreed terms on a deal to sign Dnipro winger Yevhen Konoplyanka, according to Ukrainian reports.

Would be great if true. Wait and see I suppose.

Scott Sinclair has made his loan move to Aston Villa permanent.

I initially read that as Scott Steiner for some reason.

Villa press conferences would have been interesting though!

[9 to 5]

Isn't that Nerf's hero?

[Matt]

Too many vowels.

[Gazz]

Isn't that Nerf's hero?

Not anymore.

Scott Steiner is everyones hero.

The Express are claiming we're planning a swoop for Cleverley and Jonny Evans. I think if Martinez can get the best out of Cleverley it'll be a good signing given Barry's age and our injury problems, but Evans wont get in the team ahead of Jagielka and Stones. Hes a good backup to have when your other option's Alcaraz but I'm not sure 10m is an acceptable price for a third choice centre-back.

[brenchill]

I kinda hope we keep Cleverely now. Sherwood seems to have him playing well.

Trade? You can have Arouna Kone... >_>

[Adam]

Jonny Evans? Please no. I'm not keen on Cleverley either but, he's got Barry and Lennon playing back at a level they hadn't been at in a while so maybe it'd work for him. The defence really needs sorting out overall, and I do not think Evans is what is needed. Jags is the experienced head, proven quality is what needs to be added to complement him and Stones.

[Baddar]

10m for Jonny Evans?

[Berober]

Apparently Marc Bartra has had his release clause dropped to 10 million euros because he didn't play in enough games for Barcelona. Could be a decent player for someone

[brenchill]

10m for Jonny Evans?

Not a chance. Surely not.

[Jimmy]

Saw us linked earlier, but as Go Go said we will literally be linked to everyone now it's summer. Just seen us linked to Pedro and Lavezzi today as well. Yep.

Pedro would actually be a decent signing for Man Utd. No idea if they've been linked or not.

[Nerf]

He's available for £7m, apparently. Crazy.

[stokeriño]

Chelsea have been linked to Pedro a bunch, but I don't think with any prices attached - only at the "they could be interested" (or EYEING A SWOOP) level.

Also we're up to variant #53 of Cech Transfer Rumours, with the latest suggesting a (part?) exchange deal with Walcott coming the other way. This would - from my perspective - probably be the worst part-exchange deal ever witnessed if it happened.
