22 Years Old…

By: Mark | January 27th, 2009

…an international star, and he could be all ours for the price of 12 million pounds.

Transfer talk time!
It appears that the Trotters are in talks with Sporting Club Portugal to bring youngster Miguel Veloso to the Reebok. This is not going to be easy, however because we will have to break our own transfer record to even get Sporting to consider letting him go. In the summer of 2008, the Wanderers paid anywhere from £8 Milllion to £11 Million, depending on which report you look at. Veloso has a £12 million price tag on his head.

Another bit of information which may add to our difficulties, it is believed that Manchester City have matched our offer.

I’m a big fan of Megson’s spending and I hope that we can land Veloso. Fancy footwork and he can place a shot.

In other news, Bolton have completed the signing of Mark Davies, our new 20 year old midfielder from another wandering club, Wolverhampton. Davies looks be a bright prospect and we have 4 and a half years with him to see how it pans out

    Davies is going to be a good signing… I was surprised Wolves would let him go in the middle of a promotion push… and, as I recall, Fergie/Quieroz rated Velosa pretty highly… two good signings for you Wanderers

    Veloso is a very very good player, hope he can turn it on in the EPL. Have never seen the lad Davies play but everyone seems pretty positive on it!

    lol, have you seen veloso play? Total crap. Takes freekicks (as you’ve seen from the video), but so do a lot of players. Would be a waste of money. Mark Davies is awful, but you all know that by now. Shite state of affairs.
