    The thread title explains it all, report any transfer rumors in the papers, on the web and anywhere else you can find them and post it all on here. There are plenty of good ones going on right now.

    Obviously the biggest ones in my book are the potential Man City signings, Lampard to Inter and Frey and Aquilani to Arsenal. It should be noted that Sebastien Frey is likely the most underrated keeper in the World at the moment and playing on such a big stage will almost certainly allow him to secure the top keeper job on the French National Team.

    Frank Lampard from Chelsea to Inter

    Sebastien Frey from Fiorentina to Arsenal

    Alberto Aquilani from Roma to Arsenal

    Andrey Arshavin from Zenit St. Petersburg to Manchester City

    Jo?o Alves de Assis Silva from CSKA Moscow to Manchester City


    Alexandro Silva de Sousa from CSKA Moscow to Everton

    Wayne Bridge from Chelsea to Juventus

    Arda Turan from Galatasaray to Newcastle United (possible swap for Emre plus cash compensation)

    Ulrich Rame from Bordeaux to Liverpool (possible swap for Itandje plus cash compensation)

    Ognjen Vukojevic from Dinamo Zagreb to Celtic

    John Bostock from Crystal Palace to Tottenham Hotspur

    Scolari also wants to offer Florent Malouda to Barcelona as part of a deal to sign striker Samuel Eto'o from the Nou Camp outfit. (The Sun)

    Fulham have stepped up their interest in signing Reading's Dave Kitson after striker Diomansy Kamara's long-term injury setback. (The Sun)
