English Premiership transfer gossip and rumours for May 9, 2009

Sunderland, whose Premiership status is not secure yet, are planning a £10m swoop for the Cardiff City duo of Roger Johnston and Ross McCormack.

Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has said that he has no plans to bring in major reinforcements this summer to Old Trafford despite looking at quite a “few players”

Chelsea will pay Andriy Shevchenko £7m not to return to the Bridge after completing his loan spell at Milan this summer. £7m is reportedly what is remaining of his four year contract.

Genoa’s Argentine striker Diego Milito is being linked with Spurs and both halves of Manchester- United and City. His agent has flown into England to begin discussions.

Sheffield United are reportedly interested in Aston Villa’s Marlon Harewood, who recently had a loan spell at Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Meanwhile Villa are interested in Leeds sensation Fabian Delph, but Everton and Wigan Athletic are also keeping an eye on the young midfielder.

Despite ending the season without any silverware, Arsene Wenger has said that he will still stick with his youngsters, and will not splurge in the summer window.

  1. What about Micheal Owen going to Celtic,i don’t think it will happen.
    Man City want Xabi Alonso and are willing to pay 18 million and with Rafa still wanting to buy Gareth Barry it could happen, although i don’t know why anyone would want Barry in place of Alonso.

  2. I think its absolutely stupid that wenger does not want to purchase more players, we need a stronger back line and more depth on our bench we can only do that with experience and it does not seem like he realises that…… 5 YEARS is more than enough.
