Alright Ed

Just wondering if there is genuine interest in Hulk because we were close to sealing a deal for him last season and the same with Schurrle and rumours with both have been resurfacing as of late?

Ed002 is Dede moving to corinthians? {Ed002's Note - Recently AC Milan, Barcelona, Juventus, Anzhi, Chelsea and Bayern Munich have been keeping a watching brief on the player in the months leading up to the end of the Brazilian season. A bid was made by Corinthians in December but I understand it was not a destination the player would consider and another by AC Milan in January - but they were told firmly that he was not for sale in January. Benfica and Anzhi have both spoken with Vasco since January to see if a deal could be struck in the summer and it seems that is very likely it will but with neither club. The long-term interest of Manchester United may still be seen once more, but their focus is now very much elsewhere. Both Chelsea and AC Milan have made recent offers for the player but neither matched Vasco's valuation. Milan will again return with an offer but are aware that they may not be able to tempt Vasco to them unless they can raise extra cash as opposed to any other type of deal. Chelsea may make a higher cash bid.}

Ed are Chelsea or any other clubs interested in signing Mamadou Sakho of PSG? Thanks - James13 {Ed002's Note - Sakho is on the list of targets for Monaco. Arsenal and Lyon have sustained interest in Sakho and there is some interest from Newcastle, Inter Milan, Manchester City and possible interest lingering interest from Real Madrid and Barcelona. PSG are not keen on selling but I think there is a good chance of a summer move as we move toward some significant changes at a number of clubs.}

ED before I noticed you said the amount Chelsea were willing to offer for Reus may be enough to prize him from Dortmund is that still the case? {Ed002's Note - Chelsea, Juventus, Real Madrid, Manchester City, Arsenal showed an interest in Marco Reus before his return to Dortmund last year. Recent tentative approaches made by Chelsea and Manchester City have resulted in a "not for sale" response regardless of their being a release clause in his contract. Manchester City are likely to push again as Dortmund are looking to Dzeko as a replacement for Lewandowski and will look to ease a deal through by offering favourable terms on the transfer or a contribution to his salary, but Reus is keen to stay where he is for now.}

Hey ed, do we have a strict transfer policy again this season, as in last season we had an "ageing squad" and we signed quite a few young players. Are we going to look to teenagers/ players in their early twenties again or will we be happy to buy an established player in their late twenties/early thirties? {Ed002's Note - I have no idea what you are refering to in terms of "strict policy".}

Ed002, do you expect zouma, maher and deulofeu to stay at their present clubs next season or do you expect them to be moving on? {Ed002's Note - Two will likely move.}

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Zooms and Maher I'd assume as Ed002 has told us only recently about the discussions with Barcelona over Deulofeu, where we were told that he is not for sale.
