Here's a question.for the eds

Someone posted a while back that kovacic renewed his contract this year until 19 and it's true, but I just wanted to ask I can't remember if I am making it up but I remember one of the saying that there was a chance of Hernanes joining us because Kovacic is off the card's. If I haven't made it up is there a way we could rekindle interest?

{Ed002's Note - You need to search out what I said about Hernanes, you have this slightly muddled. However, Hernanes remains available as Inter do need to sell, as I have explained. But they are struggling to find any one interested in the player. I have also never said Kovacic is not possible - that is the word from those on here that follow Twitter and trust the Echo, Sky etc.. I have explained the situation and Liverpool know exactly what they have to do now if they want Kovacic.}

Agree0 Disagree0

I thought we had stepped away from him Ed altogether and is gone a little quite. Do you think we will stump up the asking price surely if we was it would of been done by now judging by how fSt the other deals were conducted.

{Ed002's Note - No, the situation remains as I have explained. The club returned with a further offer that is close to the asking price, and acceptable - but not at the terms Liverpool are offering, so there is no final agreement and Liverpool would need to pay significantly more for the terms to be acceptable to Inter due to lack of hard cash. A representative of the player has been courting Arsenal to make an offer but they have no interest at the asking price. However, Barcelona are now back talking with Inter about their convoluted offer again.

As for the other deals, Ings and Milner were always very likely, Bogdan again was a likely move once Liverpool showed interest. Clyne was a bit of a surprise but with only a year on his contract Southampton are satisfied with the offer. Liverpool agreed a vastly over the top deal for Firmino which was so far beyond anyone else's offer all they needed to do was convince the player.}

Yeah sorry eds I'm sure you said because wr had been good on that particular day you would give us Abit of info and said there might be an outside chance of Hernanes.

And sorry I didn't mean you said kovacic is.off I just meant what u think, as it's never going to happen now. If we really wanted him look how we acted over firmino (if we know what we need to do! As you have said) then we would of done it by now, but as I said it's not going To happen now. I do hope we address the middle of the.park though, so hopefully something will happen with someone else.

Eds what is it Liverpool need to do? Is it kiss ass or up the bid?

Thanks

{Ed002's Note - Try searching and reading what I actually said about Hernanes. As for Kovacic, the situation remains as I have explained.

And is that hope that Hernanes isn't sold and pay in the instalments that inter want ed?

{Ed002's Note - No.}

I know you can't predict the future but you will have more of an insight than myself. If it is immediate cash they are after surely the Barca deal will not get them as much right now due to the complications with signing players?

{Ed002's Note - The Barcelona offer is structured to help Inter out immediately.}

26 Jun 2015 20:46:05
Surely if we approached firmino with blow everyone out the water technique, then we would do that with kovacic if we really wanted him which we clear do not now. With it not happening now I do hope we address the cm position but we'll have to wait and see.

If BBarcelona want him then it's definitely over not only is it Barcelona, they also have rakitic.

Fingerw crosser we still go for a new cm.

{Ed002's Note - It is not as simple as that - there are money issues. As for Barcelona, they have been interested all along - there is nothing new.}

26 Jun 2015 20:47:58
Hey ed! I know you hate questons about timing - but do you think this will be resolved soon? Or soon-ish?
Thanks!

{Ed002's Note - I cannot answer such things, sorry.}

Ed, as I understand the situation, Barcelona are able to buy players this summer, despite the transfer ban, but the players they buy aren´t allowed to play in official matches for Barcelona until next year. Is it expected that players signed by Barcelona would be loaned out?

If FIFA decide against the appeal could they punish them further?

Thanks in advance.

If you care to explain Ed002, I understand if you dont, but just how would the Barca deal work. Would he join them in January, or be loaned back to inter until January or how have they proposed to make it work?

{Ed002's Note - Barcelona were plotting a deal that would see Martin Montoya, Alex Song and/or Pedro Rodrigues move to Inter on loan until January and then will be part of a permanent deal for Kovacic. Whilst this option did not suit Inter originally, it is back under discussion now.}

26 Jun 2015 21:33:40
Thank you Ed, would all be part of the permanent deal or just 1/2. Can barca really afford to be trading squad members with them unable to make signings?

{Ed002's Note - It would not be all three. Song could also end up in London and efforts to secure an agreement with Pedro have seemingly failed and there are clubs beginning to show and interest in him. All are surplus to requirements.}

Ffs i hope we can get him ed i really do

26 Jun 2015 22:34:53
Is the ..............

{Ed002's Note - We are not going to get in to the money.}

27 Jun 2015 03:16:58
Thanks Ed002 for the information. It looks like we might miss out on kovacic as Inter agreed for a deal with Barcelona to sign Montoya on loan.

{Ed002's Note - I would not complicate matters too much just yet. Right now Liverpool's efforts are elsewhere with a pressing decision required about any move for Bacca - a decision that will need to be made over the next couple of days. After that perhaps thoughts can return to Kovacic and/or Benteke and whether Liverpool can stretch to the fees required.}
