Five Live reporting that West Ham have been sold to the president of Cagliari.

£36m debt to clear - however one West Ham forum claims he is worth £3bn.....anyone know if its true??

Looks like Zola is safe!

It's not a done deal yet.

Confirmation that Pompey's £7m is being used to settle some of their football debts

With four serious suitors, I'd say things are looking much brighter for West Ham. Of course the banks will want to drag as much of the incoming owner's budget over the line for themselves as they can possibly get their hands on.

Is he a billionaire?

[mickbrown]

Is he a billionaire?

If he is he has kept it well hidden as he never chucked money at cagliari.

Interesting news tonight on the amount Chelsea have to pay Citeh for Daniel Sturridge - I didn't realise deals had quite this many contingencies.

The fee is 3.5m rising to a possible maximum of 6.5m with 500k payable on him playing 10, 20, 30 and 40 games.

And 1m if he plays for England.

And Citeh get a 15% sell on clause as well.

Its about time clubs started to get meaningful compensation from clubs pinching other teams kids.

How about teams getting compensated when Clubs sell players carrying career ending injury? You must owe us thousands for selling us the crock Martin Britt!

09.40 Portsmouth are considering a move for Bolton's Ali Al Habsi, skysports.com understands.

Dont they have a transfer ban?

Im wondering if we can get a similar deal?!?!

Sturridge played 21 times for City, Junior has featured 16 times already this season and he is 1 year younger too.....

Surely must be a perfect example for us to use if some Germans try tapping him up and he doesnt stay....???

The compensation agreement as far as I understand is only a domestic agreement. So if he goes overseas your screwed......

I had to google him.....

We will pay you when Newcastle pay us for Dyer......

That's what I thought. However, if their TV Revenue is used to pay off money to the clubs they owe, then it should be lifted, because that is the reason they had the ban in the 1st place.

Either way, they're in some serious trouble.

I see Paul Hart has left QPR after just 5 games!

[modes98]

I think they owe more than the £7m that went from the tv revenue.

No still under a ban.....they owe £10m out to clubs - £7m of it (tv money) will of been paid....however they then also owe the tax people £3m. So they need to find £6m to just get straight....

And they have £60m debt

Zaki undergoes Hull medical

[S15]

I would have liked us to go for Zaki. I realise he's a nutter, but we need a wildcard to save our season.

[RibbleValleyRover]

Zaki undergoes Hull medical

Will probably pass the medical sign the deal then go awol for a week or two.

Hull are making a big mistake...

Where'd we get Grella from, Torino? Get them on the phone!

Zaki undergoes Hull medical

Very strange, they have changed the article.

[DeadlyDirk]

Very strange, they have changed the article.

Either a journo had a hunch it was going to be Hull and got it wrong or I guess Hull have convinced them to change the article and keep it private for the time being, interesting either way.

[RibbleValleyRover]

To an unnamed side... I hope its not us...

[Shabani]

Supposedley he was on the verge of joining Stoke

[thenodrog]

Stoke are linked with a lot.... and are getting a lot of rejections. Why? Does Pulis have very bad halitosis or something?

Not halitosis. He has a tendency for lamping people whilst stark naked and dripping wet though. I guess that's the sort of reputation that would tend to be difficult to shake off.
