Rich Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Bong's a left-back who's contract us up in 18 months. Seems an odd one. According to Wiki he signed a four-year deal in summer 2009, so he'll be out of contract at the end of the season (of course he might have signed a new deal in the intervening period). 30.06.2014 according to transfermarkt who are usually quite accurate. That's where I was going off, but there are other sources saying 2013 as well Would certainly make more sense if his contract was out in June given how we operate. International footballer for relative peanuts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronky Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Bong's a left-back who's contract us up in 18 months. Seems an odd one. Reports in Italy suggest Santon's agent is meeting with us to try and sort out a deal to Milan. Seems to be coming from this guy, not sure how reputable he is, works for Sky Sports in Italy http://www.gianlucadimarzio.com/calciomercato/santon-milan-gli-aggiornamenti/ Might explain Santon's poor form. Like his mind's not fully on the job. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'm satisfied in terms of goalkeepers and in the midfield, but the defence and striker situation is stinking: Debuchy S. Taylor Coloccini Santon > Simpson Williamson Perch R.
