OOC: This is originally planned as a response to Vilitian interest in some of my players, but anyone can feel free to jump in and report any transfer/gossip going on in their leagues, World Cups, or anything other tournament. Deals and transfers can be made here.


Kafra, Nedalia:

With Andre Blod, who many expect to feature in the next international tournament the Lions feature in, making his $3 million move to Cockbill Street, the fury that is off-season acquisition has begun. Already, there has been some interest in Nedalian players by Vilitian squads, but it is yet unclear what the details are pertaining to the situation.

- What is known is that Mattan, the Lions star striker, has made it very clear that it does not want to be at Porasse next season, and it is looking for a move, in or out of Nedalia. The team has slapped a $11 million price tag on him, which has scared a few teams away. Regardless, some of the top Nedalian teams are still interested, but international interest, mainly from Cockbill Street, has waned due to the sticker price on the player. Although there has been no suitor yet, the player is not expected to be around when training camp begins for Year Two of the Premier League.

- Vilitian interest in Nedalian players has been both public and aggressive, which is nothing to complain about, considering the prestige of the Stellar League. It has been rumored that Marine Coast United (Vilita) are looking at signing Premier League championsShoreland United's hero, Nene. While it has yet to be seen if the team will be willing to let go of their star player, reports have been circulating that an offer in the range of $25 million could persuade the champions otherwise. Still, these are only reports and the player has publicly stated that he wishes to remain in his home country for the time being.

- Laiotia AFC, of the Declasse League in Vilitia, has also been scouting out potential Nedalian players. Reports have been circulating that they could be interested in 21 year old right back Hans Lamm of Honsfield Athletic. Ofcourse, the team is owned by a Starblaydian company, and any negotiations would have to go directly through them. They have also reportedly been scouting Trent Hardman of Riviera (Nedalia) and Khalil Jamhurra of the newly acquired Aanjar team. The team was bought out by Vilitian company 3wide Designs, so it might be inevitable that the U21 star will make his way to the Declasse League. Hardman, however, has been solid all season long for his club, and it is rumored that it will take about $6.5 million to see Riviera part away with their only senior Lions squad representative.

- In domestic Nedalia Premier League news, rumors that Dorpar are on the verge of signing Don Downing of Carlesa have intensified after the player was seen in the city of Dorpar itself. The 22 year old had one of the best seasons of any player in Year One, but has constantly played second fiddle to Nene on the international stage. The immensely talented youngster is reportedly being signed for around $8 million, but nothing official has been published yet.

This is why we have International Domestic Soccer Newswires (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=288854), for all this kind of thing. Anyone who RPs their club teams and domestic leagues posts it in there.

Ah, I figured that was for results and scores. My mistake. Anyway, then this only concerns Vilita, I'll copy paste this into the Newswire.
