With the transfer window closing at midnight on September 1st, expect a flurry of activity as teams try to finalize their squads for the season. Tottenham will be especially busy, and Roman Pavlyuchenko has said that he is joining Spurs and will be flying to London this week to sign a contract. Tottenham are saying they will keep Berbatov in the reserves(not likely) if their valuation for Berbatov, which is said to be £30 million, is not met. United have offered £25 million, but given their start they may want to raise it up. This also brings into question a possible move for Arshavin, whose asking price has been cut. Anyone who has watched Tottenham knows they need help between the midfield and striker position, and Arshavin looks like he could fit the bill. With the natives of North London getting restless, there could be a number of Monday panic buys after this weekend's results come in.
AC Milan has been very busy this week, acquiring Shevchenko and Senderos. Everyone seems unsure whether these are loan deals or permanent, though the way Shevchenko was talking it seemed like he'll never step foot in London again. Senderos is a player who may be too slow for the British league, but his hard head and strong frame could play well in Serie A. There are also rumors that some sort of option on Kaka might be part of the Shevchenko deal between Chelsea and Milan. It's no secret that Chelsea desire Kaka, and now that Scolari is coaching this desire has turned to lust. Kaka's knee injury seems to be more serious than first thought, and he has yet to come back to training. Milan has denied any Kaka option, but with Berlusconi's feelings towards Shevchenko he might have offered to rig an election or two in order to bring back the Ukrainian.One Liners
