Transfer Roundup

It's been a crazy week and a half in the transfer market. Hristro Krastev's BG United stunned the world with one of the most audacious player exchange deals in history, allowed Lionel Messi to leave Soldier Field in exchange for the services of Cristiano Ronaldo from Donkey Rovers in a deal valued at £3.875m.






The same day saw another huge transfer completed, with Sergio Aguero leaving Harlesden Harriers, signing for AEFA title challengers Arsenal FC in a £6m deal. Queiroz moved quickly to replace the Argentinian, signing Italian striker Francesco Silvestri from Phantoms for £5.25m. But this was only the beginning of the transfer activity at Scurbs Lane; only a day later midfielder Nuri Sahin also left Harriers for a fee of £2m, himself replaced by the £5m signing of Gael Kakuta from Smithson Town FC.








Erdington Villains' manager Richard Birchall reluctantly allowed unhappy star midfielder Oscar to move on to a new challenge, accepting a £4m bid from FC Alpha.




The biggest transfer of the season so far was the £6.75m deal that took Ramon Ribeiro from SFA Premiership side London Town to Sussex Sharks 9 seasons after making his debut for Mark Lockie's team; a huge fee reflecting not only the player's current ability but his huge potential to become even better. Sharks' took their spending this week past the £10m mark with the signing of Salvatore Foti from Boaster United for £3.25m.







After being priced out a deal for his number 1 target Ribeiro, Relegation Fodder manager Dave Parker added some experience to his youthful side with the signing of 29 year old Jeremy Menez from fellow SFA Premiership side Madrid Lions for a fee of £2.5m.
