taxfree Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Did the SSN reporter say Gyan is off to Galatasarey and might not play v Brazil tomorrow. Mackem meltdown if so. Although looking at him in the derby game he'd be no miss at all. Think he's denied a move to Turkey himself. For what that's worth.. Gyan is also injured so I reckon it's because of that he's doubtful for the Brazil game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRC Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Aye with Malbranque all the best. Was a cracking player back in the day, pretty sure he nearly signed for us a few years ago, but opted to stay down south due to family reasons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 My abiding memory of him will be him and Mark Crossley mugging us that day at SJP. Credit to him for what he's done like, wish them both luck and hope his son makes a full recovery. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShearMagic Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 http://www.thenational.ae/sport/football/asamoah-gyan-on-brink-of-leaving-sunderland-for-turkey Duncan Castles Galatasaray hope to conclude the signing of Asamoah Gyan, the Sunderland centre forward, before Turkey's extended transfer window closes tomorrow. The Turkish club have offered Sunderland £5.25 million (Dh31.4m) plus £1.75m of variable payments for the 25-year-old Ghana international. Gyan is Sunderland's record signing following a £13.1m switch from Rennes last summer, but has become an increasingly difficult figure around the club since discovering that several teammates are paid more than his £25,000 weekly wage. Though Sunderland are asking for bank guarantees from the Turkish club before completing the deal, they attempted to loan Gyan to both Mallorca and Marseille last week. "Sunderland proposed that we could have Asamoah Gyan, but we decided not to follow through with it," said Marseille sporting director Jose Anigo. "This was simply because Jean-Pierre Gignac did not want to go to Sunderland [in exchange]." Gyan suffered a thigh injury on a scoring return to international duty in a 2-0 African Cup of Nations qualifier win over Swaziland on Friday night, the damage is not thought to be significant. Other Turkish clubs with an interest in Gyan include Champions League qualifiers Trabzonspor. Meanwhile, Arsenal's hesitancy in the summer transfer window cost the club the signatures of not one, but two Spain internationals. It has been widely reported that a failure to exercise Juan Mata's buyout clause by the middle of August ultimately saw them lose the forward to Chelsea. Arsene Wenger also lost Santi Cazorla to Malaga after hesitating on a formal offer. Like Mata, Cazorla, 26, had agreed personal terms with Arsenal. The Premier League club, however, did not want to conclude what would have been a £16.6m transfer from Villarreal before the sales of Cesc Fabregas and Samir Nasri had been completed, allowing Malaga to beat them to the deal. Instead, Wenger ended up scrambling to recruit Mikel Arteta from Everton for £10m and Yossi Benayoun on loan from Chelsea on deadline day.

Guest johnson293 Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 What is Dh31.4m?! In currency, Dh is the abbreviation for Dirhams - arab currency. So I'd guess it saying £5.25m is equivalent to 31.4m dirhams That article is from an Arab based newspaper website. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
