Who will be this summer’s transfer box office hit?
As with most summers there a whole range of transfer rumours, ranging from barmy (Tranmere's Dale Jennings to Bayern Munich....what? That actually happened?) to downright insane (Tevez to Corinthians – all this talk about running out of time to complete the deal is nonsense, there is no way they would have ever been able to afford him) and this got me thinking; just which rumour has the potential to develop into an outright summer box office hit, with all the twist and turns and last minute drama that any good blockbuster offers
There have of course been some crackers in the past– Robinho to Manchester City was amongst the most exciting transfer deadline buys back in 2008, while Tevez and Javier Mascherano to West Ham and Rafael Van Der Vaart and Dimitar Berbatov in and out of Spurs respectively had all the elements to make fans forget the frankly nonsensical Twitter guesses and "rumoured to be", "apparently" and "linked to" articles in rags up and down the land for a moment as they basked in the drama the transfer window brings.
