A terrific little player, Damien Duff has decided to hang up his boots for the Republic of
Ireland after picking up his 100th cap at Euro 2012. The move by the 33-year-old comes hot on the
heels of Shay Given's decision to do the same.
The gifted wideman has enjoyed a fantastic club career with Blackburn, Chelsea, Newcastle and
his current club, Fulham, although it's probably fair to say that he never quite hit the heights
that his talent, back at the turn of the millennium, hinted at.
Maybe not a marquee signing but still a very good and very consistent player, Clint 'Deuce'
Dempsey found himself in the middle of a bit of a furore today after the Fenway Sports Group, who
own Liverpool, stated on their website that the American attacker had joined Reds (see above).
The English FA has not gone far to find a replacement for former England manager Fabio Capello,
pegging West Brom manager Roy Hodgson as the leading candidate to manage England at this summer's
European Championships.
The FA has sought permission and has been granted permission by West brom to speak with Hodgson,
who appears a good bet to beat out former favorite Harry Redknapp for the job.
Arsene Wenger might be able to announce two new Arsenal players this week. The general manager of
Yann M'Vila's current club Rennes, Pierre Dreossi, has dropped a massive hint that he expects
M'Vila to become a Gunner by the end of the week. "Arsenal? Maybe, you'll have to call Arsene. But
when Song leaves, we [.
We've already seen that Spurs have been strongly linked with Rennes' French international
midfielder Yann M'Vila but it's also being claimed that the club had another defensive midfielder
watched at the weekend.
24 year old Toulouse player Étienne Capoue was in action against Montpelier the night before
scouts supposedly watched M'Vila but the story which seems to have originated from the Metro
newspaper may be wide of the mark in claiming that Capoue is the club's top target.
The longer the Emmanuel Adebayor transfer saga rumbles on, the stronger the likelihood of Spurs
looking elsewhere for strike power ahead of the new season.
One of our alleged ongoing targets, Marseille striker Loic Remy, has spoken today about his
future and while he claims that he is committed to his current club, he admits that plenty could
still happen before the transfer window is closed.
The Brazilian international midfielder Oscar claims that Spurs have been in contact with his
agent but suggests that he is only looking at the immediate future and expects to stay with his
current club.
Oscar is just one of the many names being linked with Tottenham at present but the player
himself states that there is some real substance in this rumour.
Long time Spurs target Leandro Damiao has reportedly hinted that he feels he is ready to test
himself outside of Brazil after the 22 year old has continued to impress at Internacional.
His employers however don't seem to feel the same way and are claiming that any offers will be
refused until the end of the domestic season in December.

ARSENAL FC is fishing in Spanish Football waters. One catch virtually done is Spanish International
& MALAGA FC midfielder SANTIAGO CAZORLA. His current Club is undergoing financial problems & paying
the players has not been a regular habit. Thus Malaga FC & Cazorla have been open to offers &
Arsenal has happily stepped in with around 16M€.
Spanish International & MALAGA FC midfielder SANTIAGO CAZORLA is not happy at his current Club. The

Kevin Grosskreutz has revealed that it would be a "dream" to play for Liverpool in the future, but
reiterated his love for current club Borussia Dortmund.
The 24-year-old was signed to BVB's youth team in 2002, but moved to Rot Weiss Ahlen a year later
before being repatriated in 2009.
Under coach Jurgen Klopp, Grosskreutz has won two Bundesliga titles and the DFB-Pokal, and while he
stated the feeling he has for his current employers, he also left the door open for a move to
Anfield.
Iceland international Bjorn Bergmann Sigurdarson claims he has been left "mentally broken" after
his current club Lillestrom refused to let him move to England. The Norwegian side are keen to keep
hold of the 21-year-old amid interest from several clubs, including Everton and Wolves. The
Molineux outfit, now managed by ex-Lillestrom player Stale Solbakken, made [.

he said in an interview with Portuguese television station RTP.
The U.S. Men's National Team returns to action on Wednesday in the highly-anticipated friendly
vs. Mexico at Estadio Azteca. We already know who Mexico will be bringing to the showdown, but U.S.
head coach Jurgen Klinsmann has held off in announcing his team until the weekend.
Back in June, Klinsmann suggested that he would be fielding a full-strength squad for the trip
to Mexico City, but circumstances might keep that from happening.
