Robinson set for Aston Villa talks?

Posted by Stevio in Rumours on June 25th, 2008

The Evening Standard are reporting that Paul Robinson is to hold talks with Aston Villa this week.

The ‘keeper, who lost his place in the first team to Radek Cerny in March, could move for a fee of £5m.

Who will be Robinson’s replacement? Cerny has gone to QPR leaving just Ben Alnwick as the only first-team goalkeeper.

The last week or so Heurelho Gomes of PSV has been linked with a move to Spurs numerous times.

We’ve also been linked with Allan McGregor (Rangers), Emiliano Viviano (Brescia), Gregory Coupet (Lyon) and Joe Hart (Manchester City).

Latest Spurs rumours: Coupet, Robinson, Eto’o & Gomes

Posted by Stevio in Rumours on May 24th, 2008

Lyon ‘keeper Gregory Coupet has admitted that he’ll be leaving the French club this summer.

The 35-year-old said: “Yes, I’m leaving, it had become an open secret.

“My way of saying thank you to the fans will be to win the Cup by being invincible.”

Unfortunately it doesn’t look like he’ll be headed to Spurs as Coupet’s club have said the following: “Lyon categorically deny having received any offer from the English club Tottenham about the transfer of Gregory Coupet,”

If Frenchman doesn’t arrive, then if the Daily Star are correct, then we’ll need a new ‘keeper as they report Paul Robinson is wanted by Aston Villa and Bolton Wanderers.

An odd bit of news includes Gustavo Poyet. He’s supposedly told a Spanish radio station that we’re not interested in Barcelona striker Samuel Eto’o.

The Uruguayan reportedly told Ona FM: “Samuel Eto’o is not a priority for our team. Moreover, we’re not interested in him,”

He added: “We’ll be having a meeting next week to talk about signings, as we’ve already made one interesting one for next season.”

Finally, Spurs have failed in a bid for PSV ‘keeper Heurelho Gomes say The Independent. The Dutch club reportedly want £11.6m for the Brazilian. AC Milan are favourites to land him.
