All of today’s transfer rumours in one tasty package

Frank Lampard

With the economy in tatters, it now seems that a football team can buy three Frank Lampards for the cost of a Darren Bent. According to The Sun, Inter will bid a measly £6.6m for the Chelsea star, despite the fact that he cost them £11m back in 2001 when everyone thought he was a bit average. Come on, Internazionale, Abramovich has more money than that sitting between his couch cushions.

Cristiano Ronaldo to Real Madrid
Fantastic news: now Portugal are out of Euro 2008, so petulant w(h)inger Ronaldo can start toying with the emotions of the fans who worship him again. We didn’t even get to see him cry first - how unfair!

The Spoiler Truth-o-meter: He will announce his intentions this weekend, apparently, but it all depends on whether United let him fulfil his dream of making obscene amounts of money

Jan Koller to Birmingham
Yes, you read that right. One of the most prolific strikers in international football has heard all about the physicality of the Coca Cola Championship and is eager to get himself a piece of the action.

The Spoiler Truth-o-meter: Not even Baros would go to Birmingham right now

Andrei Arshavin or Obafemi Martins to Arsenal
It looks like Arsene Wenger is getting uncomfortable with all the Adebayor speculation and is already eyeing a replacement. The in-form Russian and talented Newcastle striker currently top the list.

The Spoiler Truth-o-meter: Depends on Adebayor’s future

Eidur Gudjohnsen to West Ham
It’s been 18 months since the rumour first did the rounds purely on the basis of the Icelandic link, but it looks like there may have been some truth after all. So West Ham could sign a player who figured in over half of Barca’s league games for £4 million - it’s no Luka Modric deal but a step in the right direction nonetheless.

The Spoiler Truth-o-meter: We’re tempted to believe it this time

Xabi Alonso to Juventus
Those idiots running the show at Anfield have got some front. They get all tetchy over Aston Villa driving a hard bargain for Barry while at the same time trying to crank up Alonso’s asking price.

The Spoiler Truth-o-meter: Looks like he’ll be off

Anton Ferdinand to Aston Villa
If rumours are to be believed, Ferdinand has spent the last week being scrutinised by Tottenham’s medical team, so why all the sudden talk of Aston Villa?

The Spoiler Truth-o-meter: A quote-less story in a Brum paper, picked up by the nationals - unconvinced

    “If rumours are to be believed, Ferdinand has spent the last week being scrutinised by Tottenham’s medical team, so why all the sudden talk of Aston Villa?”
