Following hot on the heels of the departure of Scott Carson, the Baggies have now been linked with Manchester City goalkeeper Shay Given…
However the more recent versions of this so far unsubstantiated rumour suggest that Villa will beat us to the punch for the 35 year old.
The details are…
He has turned down an offer from us, because he would prefer to join them, but Manchester City are yet to agree a transfer fee for him, because they want £5m and Villa are only prepared to pay £3m at the moment.
Makes perfect sense, I think I need another coffee.
In all seriousness if we are in for him, I rather hope he’s politely asked us to wait so he can assess all his options, as opposed to turning us down flat. There are injury concerns but I’m sure we could get a good few years from him first and he is a quality keeper when fit.
