Celtic are lining up a bid for 17-year-old Real Salt Lake midfielder Freddy Adu. (The Sun)

Interesting transfer this one. More so because of Adu's reputation than me actually having watched him I suppose. He was (maybe still is) the next big thing in world football. Doesnt seem to have done much, besides move to a smaller club in the US.
Kiko - wadda ya reckon of the lad?

Sunderland boss Roy Keane is going back to Manchester United to sign midfielder Kieran Richardson for £5.5m. (Daily Mirror)

What a crock of shit Sunderland are going to have come the first game. Richardson and Chopra for a combined total of £11million?
Smacks of desparation, paying over the odds for very very average players.

Sunderland boss Roy Keane has been told by Hearts he will have to spend £10m on goalkeeper Craig Gordon. (Daily Star)

Crazy crazy crazy money.
If I was looking for a goalie at the moment I would look at Dudek (free) or Carson/Kirkland who Rafa wants to move on. More so Kirkland because I dont think he has a hope in hell of making our first team. Would be available cheap and isnt a bad player for a decent Premiership outfit.
