Reports on the net we are in talks to complete a move for Feghouli.
Out of contract in the summer is this the normal run of the mill rumour (i. e. rubbish) or is there any substance in it Eds?

{Ed002's Note - Whilst Valencia's Sofiane Feghouli was stalling on signing a new contract, his agents were scurrying around looking for interest in the player and they have found it in Inter who looked to a pre-agreement in January - but Inter's cash flow has dried up and they were not in any sort of a position to place a security deposit equal to the signing on fee in escrow. Both Fenerbahce and Manchester United asked about buying Feghouli at a reduced price in January and that would have possibly suited the player - but not his club. Interest of the likes of Juventus, Liverpool and Milan remains no more than speculation as far as anyone even vaguely close to the situation is aware and given that all three clubs could talk to the player now it seems surprising that they have not. Dark horses are perhaps Roma, but Inter do remain keen and Fenerbahce may return. Manchester United walked away after third party advice suggested he would not be any sort of improvement over what they have already. In the mean time, Valencia has said they will meet his salary demands but are reluctant to pay a very significant "re-signing on fee" his agent is requesting.}
{Ed001's Note - they play completely different roles in a team.}
