Transfer Rumour Round up
Last updated : 28 January 2004 By Liam Corbett
Luis Ronaldo - Fined by Mardid for attempting to get to Chelsea's home game agaisnt Liverpool, to meet friend Claude Makelele. Lucky he didn't make it, if he had seen that rubbish he'd have never signed anyway !!! Would be a fantastic signing. Him, MU-TU and Crespo competing for two slots would be interesting to say least. Would mean bye bye Jimmy - But I'm sure we'd get over it. Likely? 5/10
Roberto Carlos - Not signing a new contract, allegedly either to go to Chelsea, or to link himself with Chelsea, so Madrid pay him more. Would be good, but would prefer Bridge. Also, at 30, not a wise transfer. Likely? 3/10
Scott Parker - He wants to come. Charlton say he can't. I could see Carlton Cole getting involved in this one, may be as a sweetner to keep him there permanently. Either way, sooner or later, I believe we'll get him. Likely? 9/10
Tomas Rosicky - Can't say I know a lot about him, but have been informed he is very good. Last week, the 23-year-old claimed he had agreed terms with the money men at Stamford Bridge. But on Tuesday his agent Pavel Paska said no deal would be done before the close of the transfer window. However, he said a move remained on the cards in the summer for the £10m-rated international. Likely? 7/10
Peter Cech - Very good goalie, and at only 21 would be a fab guy to sign. What about Carlo? Well, Carlo would still be number one and would be kept on his toes by him though, and any mistake would be followed by Cech keeping the next game, as Kirkland does for Liverpool behind Dudek. Kirkland is a fantastic goalie, but knows to wait his time. Would Cech be willing to do the same? Likely? 6.5 / 10
Emerson - Again, he is a fantastic player. Would he come to Chelsea? He seems keen. Is there room though in the dressing room for another midfielder? May be not. Likely? 3/10
DeFoe - I had a source that told me he was coming a couple of weeks ago. Still hasn't happened! Not sure it will now. But after Reyes move to Arsenal, they won't be in for him i doubt. Likely? 3.5 / 10
