El traspaso d Cesc no se ha hecho oficial pq,formalmente,tiene q pasar una semana desde acuerdo con Chelsea para q Arsenal no ejerza tanteo

Only not official because we have to wait for the option of Arsenal to run down. He's a journo from Cadena ser btw.

that makes sense. If there's a preferential clause, then after Chelsea officially bid for the player, Barcelona should give Arsenal some time to see if they're using their right to sign first or not...

I also think a week is a reasonable time. So I guess that's it, guys, we just have to wait those 7 days to expire, whenever did they start to count.

From last friday...(from the reports)....

It is widely reported in Spain that Rakitic's impending move will result in Cesc Fabregas sealing a return to the Premier League, with Chelsea favourites to land his signature.

agree mate we are favourites but that would count for naught if Arse choose to exercise option...btw have to be cautious even over Sky, wasnt Diego Costa to Chelsea supposed to be announced yesterday???

Rakitic to barca now clearly a done deal, yet no news about Cesc to Chelsea...it appears media is clueless as shit. I doubt this two deals are connected in way; as soon Rakitic goes, Cesc will go too...

Im sure that Cesc deal to chelsea wont be done for a while because Barca will look for more offers...regardless of Rakitic.

And media saying; it will be official on tuesday, then on tuesday they say it will be on friday...and that can go for another month or so. Just writing bs so that people buy it.

I thought some players would signed before the WC, but maybe everything is on-hold until afterward. We can only hope that agreements will become contracts for now, it seems.

Agreement is held up right now because Barcelona want euros while Chelsea only want to pay in pounds.

That is none sense and no excuse to not announce

I'd pay those cunts 27m in penny coins..a compromise.

[Namika 922]

The Manchester clubs aren't interested, Ogden, Ducker and Daniel Taylor said it and when it comes to Manchester, it doesn't get more reliable than that.

It's a done deal for sure.

Yeah, I'm on my fourth can of lager.

On the Barcelona forums they are saying that Rakitic is better than Modric and Cesc. You can go there if you want to have a laugh.
