Hearing Jordan Rhodes Huddersfield to Blackburn a done deal. Fee rising to £8m with add-ons (e.g. Rovers promoted, etc) #brfc #htfc

Venky's in spend a load of money once we have been relegated shocker.

As for Rhodes not sure he wouldn't have been better sitting tight and waiting for a mid table prem club to come in for him.

The QPR transfer madness rolls on.

Sky Sports sources understand Queens Park Rangers are in talks with Real Madrid over the permanent signing of midfielder Esteban Granero.

The Hoops are looking to add some late reinforcements before the transfer window shuts on Friday, having already been linked with Real centre-back Ricardo Carvalho.
Granero, who has a year remaining on his contract in Madrid, is the latest target being linked with a move to Loftus Road.

The 25-year-old is already thought to be on the radar of Arsenal,Liverpool and Tottenham this summer but QPR could beat them to the punch after entering talks with Real over the Spaniard.

Granero came through the youth ranks with Real and moved to Getafe in 2008 before returning to his boyhood club a year later.

The Spanish midfielder made 24 appearances for Los Blancos last season.

Bit of an upgrade on Barton.

Don't rate Granero whatsoever, was gutted when we were linked with him he's a wimp, but still a strange move from Real Madrid to QPR. Wonder what ridiculous money/wage their offering?

Madness.

I bet Rob Green is well chuffed.

I really wish they'd hurry up and bit for Downing and Adam.
