Mateo Musacchio

[Kandi1977]

I would imagine that is 39.6 million euros..... The previous stories seem to suggest that Villareal own only 60% of the economic rights of the player, with 35% owned by Racing Club in Argentina and 25% by his agent(s). 60% of 39.6 million euros, is roughly the size of our original bid (23.76 million euros).

Math is not my strongest subject, and it clearly isn't yours either! =P~ 60+35+25 = 100? And as stated by jimmyb, the other club is River Plate, not Racing.

I very much think this is going to go tits up

I think quite the opposite.

This will be done. It'll just take a little longer.

Monday is my bet.

Monday is my bet.

The Villareal squad are coming to London on Friday. I expect Levy's waiting for then so he can save a £50 EasyJet bill.

They are here to play Swansea, right? It will be interesting to see if he features in that match. If he does not play then I can just imagine what folks will read into it.

Look after the pennies...

Various South American outlets in Argentina and Mexico (bizarrely) now calling this as done.

If it's not already done, it's a good opportunity to talk face to face.

According to some guy on SC Fichajes.com also claiming the deal is done and he'll be a Spurs player by Friday.

but Villareal needed to get a few things in order (sign Corluka to replace him and maybe try to buy-out the other two owners).

Corluka isn't going anywhere. He has just signed new contract and is pretty happy in Lokomotiv.

Spurspanyol - the fella who has been providing a a running commentary on the reports from the local Villarreal media (who presumably have the best contacts with the club) - seems to think that these other reports are wide of the mark and jumping the gun. As far as the local media are concerned, there's no deal yet.

It's the school summer holidays..... Easyjet flights to/from Spain are now at least £200!

this must be what is holding up the deal.

JJetSet has posted on SC that the club are very confident this will happen now but wouldn't be giving any further info *pinch of salt and all that*

So the deal is off?

100% dead in the water

Spurspanyol saying that Villarreal are close to signing a central defender - Victor Ruiz from Valencia. Could be announced tomorrow.

Musacchio's replacement?

 

[Gutter Boy]

He's been pulled out of the squad for Villareal's match with Swansea tomorrow:

 

[Gutter Boy]

He's not injured, he hasn't travelled for 'sporting reasons'

 

[NWND]

Cadena Ser Radio station in Spain reporting he's been left behind as the deal with Spurs is close.
