Well, officially. Unofficially, get them to sign a contract, and date it for the day after their existing one expires. Pending a medical. But we wouldn't do that kind of thing cos it would be naughty

And if he signs with someone else in the mean time their contract trumps yours -

Not liking the lack of Serge announcement so far. Must be because they are holding off due to things maybe not going our way in other areas.

Either that or there's been a snag. Either way the lack of announcement is winding me right up!

May have to take a walk to my nearest Nando's to clear my head

Knowing how the club likes to pander to the American market, we might be holding off until the early afternoon so more of the USA fanbase are awake.
 
If we don't announce Llorente and Aurier together with Aurier putting Llorente, who's dressed as a policeman, in a headlock whilst Rose is in the background Googling Juan Foyth, we've missed a trick.

BOSMAN RULING
This ruling meant Bosman and every other EU footballer were free to negotiate deals to any other EU based team after their current contracts expired, they were also allowed to sign pre-contract deals with other clubs if they had six months remaining on their current deals.

Restraint of Trade, Competition Law and the Transfer Window: a Level Playing Field? | GD Knowledge

"FIFA Rules

FA and Premier League rules are much more restrictive than the FIFA rules, which allow players to negotiate directly with other clubs within the last 6 months of their contracts. This creates a situation whereby players for non-English clubs are free to negotiate with both domestic and foreign clubs for a full 6 months before the end of their contract, whereas players for English clubs who wish to remain in England must wait until the final month of their contract to commence negotiations."

Its literally the day created for fake sources.

One earlier said Poch decided to go for Llorente because of West Brom interest in Janssen.

Its been since confirmed West Brom have zero interest in him. So someone's lying.

So where's the bit about Llorente wanting to go to Chelsea come from? He didn't go when they bid for him months before we did. Are still posting on Shed End?
