With just two weeks of the January transfer window left, Tottenham Hotspur yesterday made their
first signing. Iago Falque's loan from Juventus was made permanent for a fee rumoured to be around
£1.5m. The young Spaniard was immediately sent out on loan to Championship club Southampton.
FC Porto forward Hulk has once again been linked with a move to London club Chelsea. However
with Kaka and Krasic in the market, his chances of joining the Blues are getting slimmer and
slimmer everyday.
Villas-Boas who knows Hulk from his days as Coach of Porto is known to be a great admirer of the
Brazilian forward, however, with a buyout clause of $130 million dollars, and Chelsea's growing
debt, Hulk is out of reach for even Abramovich's billions.

This news item has been reproduced from today's media. It does not necessarily represent the

Reports are coming in that the Italian giants Juventus are still intending to make a big bid to
sign Theo Walcott, and are prepared to offer the Serbian International Milos Krasic as part
exchange on the deal. Walcott is currently in the same position as Robin Van Persie with just 18
months left on his [.
In the last year he was one of the best player for Juventus, but the advent of Antonio Conte's
era at Juventus seems to have stopped the rising of Milos Krasic in the club.
When he arrived in Italy in the last year he was received by Juventus fans as the "New Nedved",
both for his role in the field (left wing) and for his moves which are very similar to those of
former Juventus and Lazio player.
Who needs Alexis Sanchez more Manchester United or Manchester City? - originally posted on

One of the hottest names in this transfer window is Chilean International star, Alexis
Sanchez.
After leading Udinese to a historical qualification to the Champions League, scoring 12 goals
(his best ever goalscoring tally in a single season) and providing six assists, "El Niño
Maravilla" looks mature enough to step up to one of Europe's big boys; he appears to be in the
midst of a tussle for his services between both Manchester clubs; City and United (along with a
host of top European clubs as Udinese hawk their player to the highest bidder.
Lo ammetto, ho toppato pronostico. Nella tavolata di amici davanti ad una gustosa pizza tra
affezionati bianconeri la scorsa estate, ero stato l'unico a sostenere che la truppa di Del Neri
avrebbe potuto arrivare terza o quarta in classifica.
Forse l'avvento di Andrea Agnelli mi aveva illuso.
One a team, one a player, both best told via video.
The Stadio Sao Paulo is usually a fortress: Napoli have won at home eleven times this season,
and have only lost twice. Lazio however threatened not just once, but twice, to send the side to
their third home defeat of the season. And then, Gli Azzurri woke up.
The current Serie A season has seen a trio of clubs compete for the Scudetto with Milan ahead by
a small margin over Inter and Napoli respectively. The Milan-Inter showdown, set after the
international break, will determine to a large extent the direction of the title. From an
individual standpoint, there have been very few influential signings this season who can be
credited with shaping the fortunes of their respective clubs.
Matchday 30 was pivotal for the scudetto, relegation spots, and the Champions' League positions.
One hero has fallen, another has been revived, and one team is as good as gone. And yes, it's
Bari.
1. Serie A is as tight as ever. 10 games played, 21 goals scored. No team won
by more than two goals.
Milos Krasic and Edinson Cavani were surely two nominees for players of the season by December.
And somehow, by March, a mere three months later, both seem vague shadows of the empirical figures
they once were. Fatigue and form may be an issue for the two attacking players, but unless Napoli
and Juventus figure out how to restore verve to these men sorely lacking it at the present, they
risk losing it all this season.
Juventus have struggled to find any consistency throughout another frustrating season which
currently sees them sit in sixth place in Serie A with Lazio in fourth on 48 points, a full seven
ahead of Juve. There is no point comparing this season's Juve with the last one for a number of
reasons.

After the sad news that Fabio Quagliarella will be out for the rest of the season, Juventus got
a replacement in record time. It's Luca Toni who will be replacing Quagliarella (out for 4-6 months
with a torn cruciate knee ligament), the World Cup winner leaving Genoa to sign a one and a half
year contract with the bianconeri.
