Friday's Transfer Update! 1st May 2009

Well, it's that time of the week again - and what a week of wheeling and dealing it has been!

There were no fewer than 38 seven-figure deals in StJohn this week, with several of those being very significant deals indeed - some of the biggest stars in the world were on the move this week!


As reported last week, and still the biggest move of the last 7 days, was Sergio 'Kun' Agüero's (above) £5.5M move last Saturday from Hajduk Spliff FC to CFC FC. With 59 goals and 37 assists in his first 51 appearances, it's safe to say that signing the Argentine genius was money well spent.

Ian Bush's Victorian Queue were making yet more headlines, splashing out a huge £4.7M fee for Spanish midfield maestro, Francesc Fàbregas. Boshka Start FC will surely miss him!

A long transfer auction eventually saw Lionel Messi leave quitters NK Jogurt to sign for Marc Thom's Beetlejuice, where he's made an excellent start, nabbing 5 goals in 4 games.

Finally, T-Bag Town boss Lee Jones will be happy at grabbing the Brazilian trickster Robinho in a deal rumoured to be worth around £3.7M. This stunning maneuver was funded largely through the sale of 19-year old Italian defensive sensation Davide Ricci to Tom Curtis' Tactically Inept.

This week's Steal Of The Week? Well, Kun's move may not seem a steal, but with returns like his... maybe it should count. Otherwise, Mark Horsham's Newtongrange Hibernian seem to have done a very nice bit of business in snapping up Italian winger Davide Marchini for £30,000 from FC Tornado. Marchini has an average rating of 7.19 from his opening 26 appearances for his new side.
