Rumour reel: Seagulls land Columbian star

No interest shown in Barkley

All summer we’ve had Everton midfielder Ross Barkley linked with just about every major club, from England and abroad. His name has been mentioned for a move as many times as Alexis Sanchez, but it looks like both men could actually be staying where they are. Arsene Wenger told fans his Chilean scorer hasn’t told him he wants to leave, and now Toffees boss Ronald Koeman informed the press there has been no offers made to sign Barkley and he could very well remain at the club until at least the New Year. If he does stay, it’s doubtful the 23-year-old, who has a year left on his contract, would play too much football, after telling everyone who would listen that he wants out. Will there be a late bid to save the Englishman’s career?

Rose trying to force a move

Fans of Tottenham may be worried by a lack of transfer activity coming out of the club, but manager Mauricio Pochettino moved to calm fears, assuring followers that deals will be made. He considered his situation different to that of rivals, but said his team are working tirelessly to get new faces in. Full back Danny Rose made a jaw-dropping remark recently, saying he’d love the club to get a few well-known names, instead of having to search google to find out who the targets actually are, and what they’ve done in the game. Cheeky, but perhaps he has nothing to lose, with a move away looking likely. Rose told reporters he’d welcome a switch back up north if a concrete offer was made. If the defender isn’t careful he could end up doing a Barkley and burning his bridges.
