Transfer roundup:

There are a lot rumours down on the Cote D’Azur as Guy Lacombe wants to start get rid of all the players he doesn’t have in his plans and instead bringing in some new faces. That has led to the signing of Djimi Traore and soon possibly also some other players. So here is a round-up of the incoming and outgoing transfer rumours.

In:

Steve Savidan: The rumours are saying that he could sign with us anyday. The only thing preventing the transfer from happening has been his price-tag, but according to various sources, they are very close to an agreement that should be just about 4,5 million €. So Savidan should be able to join Les Monegasques here in the upcoming days. That is almost for sure! He will be a great mentor for all our youngsters on the team.

Mathieu Coutadeur: A lot of rumours are saying that he has made his choice about his future destination, and according to various sources it is said that it is Monaco! He should have agreed to a contract worth of 3 years, but the price of him has yet to be worked out. Hopefully it can be done in the next days so he can join the team as soon as possible.

Andriy Schevchenko: Well this is just a rumour about us offering him a 3 year deal, but I just don’t see it happening with us about to sign Steve Savidan. The rumours of him coming to Monaco has been on and off, but quite frankly I don’t want him here in Monaco. He has lost his form and his salary demands will be huge. So don’t count on this happening, but still funny to think that such a big player have been rumoured to us.

Out:

Jerko Leko: Leko isn’t in Lacombe’s plans for our future, and according to a lot of sources(Skysports) he could join Wolverhampton as soon as this week! The price have been worked out between the clubs and it should be just around 2 million €. So the clean up in our squad has indeed begun.

Patrick Müller: He is old, and not in our plans and if we are not able to sell him, he will be released. He is one of many players on the transfer list in Monaco, and he should be gone very soon!

So some nice players could come to Monaco. I am most excited about the rumours of Coutadeur and I really hope it is true. He passes the ball great and gets all the players on the team involved in the attack, and I believe that with him passing the ball to our wings Mollo and Pino we will have a nice midfield here in the upcoming season.
That is all for this time. I will be back with the next transfer roundup.
