Really couldn't give a shit about Yarmolenko. Underwhelming if we're willing to spend that amount on him. Also, doesn't he play on the left? Are we expecting him to compete with Arnie? So one of them wouldn't be playing. I'd go cheaper on the left and spend the cash on the right. I usually agree with you, Foster. But, this lad can play. What a signing, if this happens - and I'd say he is probably worth every penny if €20M is the actual offer. Yeah mate, when I typed that post I was actually thinking of Kono. My mistake.

I'm sensing bullshit with this story to be honest.
I'll wait for another source before getting excited.

But at least we learned that he's a left footer that plays on the right. Just saw that he was linked to Chelsea and Liverpool back in April so not sure there's much chance for this one.

Last season: In the league: 26 appearances. 14 goals. 14 assists. In the Europa League: 11 appearances. 4 goals. 7 assists. Then I would say that 20 mill. euro is not overprice. It would be the signing of all time for Stoke City FC, but I don`t dear to dream about it.

Exactly my thoughts but why let the facts get in the way of a good post. Oh right yeah because that was such a great post I just, for some reason, believed they were on the same team, it was a simple mistake. No need to be a cunt I was teasing. But on a serious point, something tells me doing any business including football in that country irrespective of club will be very, very difficult!

A bit left field is this. Usually, after a couple of high profile misses, you'd expect a club to go for a cheaper (and less desirable) option. If we really are going for Yarmolenko then we are going for, arguably, a far better option for the right wing than Shaqiri was. Amazing if true - and certainly exciting if it comes off. Big IF though.
A bit of information: When Yarmo was coming to the end of his last contract (and we and Liverpol were interested) he signed a new contract out of loyalty to his club as he didn't want them to lose him for free - or that's what he said at the time. So it is possible that he doesn't want to run his contract down and would leave this summer. He seems the opposite of Konoplyanka in that he put loyalty to his club above a big signing on fee - although to be fair to Kono his 3rd party part ownership put him in a difficult position.

Maybe this is why they suddenly withdraw the offer on Shaquiri just a day or two after they said that they should give Shaquiri time to decide. I was a bit suprised that they withdraw the offer so fast after saying that.

Just saw that he was linked to Chelsea and Liverpool back in April so not sure there's much chance for this one. Someone posted a short while ago "With Johnson overlapping for the byline cross". A nice thought I must say. Was thinking Liverpool just signed that Firmino fella, but with Sterling leaving they might be lurking? Yarmolenko would face some real tough competition if he was to sign for LFC/CFC. If we try and do this quickly I reckon we might have a chance actually. It would be some signing.

A few quotes around this rumour:
Dynamo Kiev chairman, Igor Surkis, has said he is "willing to let Yarmolenko go". Also, Dynamo head coach Sergei Rebrov has apparently said that Yarmolenko "wants to leave the club with dignity, not as a free agent."
Little dig at Konoplyanka there. Looks like Dynamo are willing to cash in on him now and their chairman doesn't seem as troublesome as Dnipro's. Whether we've actually bid for him, or if he'd agree to terms with us after being linked with so many other big clubs, is another matter altogether!

I'll go for 48 pages until FM pulls a link from an Eritrean website saying he's in a Cessna with a rusty wing on his way to Clayton Wood.

Although the likelihood of this having BS written all over it is high (failed Kono bid, failed Shaq bid - who else in that bracket can we link them with?), I can actually see this as kosher.
Really hope it's true though and said as much after Shaq bombed.
Time, Twitter and a few hundred more pages will no doubt reveal more.
Fingers crossed here.
