Dobrodošli u Manchester City, Edin Dzeko, da samo manchestersko momčad :D

lol i think thats more than enough and good signing for us, he is gona be great :D
david silva will flourish with him, because he is good at putting through balls and picking out players, and dzeko is always lurking in the box, gona be our torres, but better :D

There are add ons to the deal.

Really big ones most probably.
i dont think so, i think that was the old deal. it was... "City pledged around £28million up front, with extras for Champions League qualification taking the overall amount to close on £35m."
but i guess we got him for cheaper

Glad to see the money I'm paying for parking spots in Abu Dhabi is in good hands...

10th striker these past 2 seasons eh?

...............dzeko
......silva............tevez
................yaya

what a scary attack, and not to mention having balotelli, johnson and milner on the bench, and who knows who else we will sign to replace the departures of adebayor, santa-cruz, swp and jo :D :D :D

dzeko to city is a done deal, we knew this for a while.
and earning 233,812 euros a month after taxes is not bad at all

i just noticed that Dzeko is not cup tied :D he is gona be a real good addition, not just in EPL but in Europe also :D :D im excited about this trasnfer

thats ridiculous, and if true, city should just tell him to f off, there are plenty of others that can do the job. but i dont think thats true, thats wayyyy too much, its 3 times more than city's best offer(150,000 a week)
 
#29 ·
its not gona happen, the most he will get is 150,000 a week, and bayern can forget about it, they cant compete with our spending power.

He's issued a 'come and get me' plea to Juve. I know in his head he really prefers signing for Juve over Man City. Plus Juve are offering Sissoko or Amauri to Vfl Wolfsburg.
+ we should've had 1st option on him, having given Diego to Wolfsburg this season.

Mates, I'm following bosnian forums and here's an interesting post from memeber: hz1987,

"Evo jedan najsvježiji info. Džeko sutra ujutro 04.01.2010. odlazi u Manchester, na medicinski pregled, da bi nakon toga potpisao sve ranije dogovoreno. U subotu su se dogovorili MCFC i Wolfsburg, u Nedjelju su trajali pregovori između Džeke i MCFC i danas je sve završeno. Sutra ima jutarnji let za Manchester, gdje se odrađuje ono rutinski predugovorno vezano za medicinski dio, gdje bi tokom dana trebao potpisati vjernost i podići svjetlo-plavi dres sa upravom. Zbog toga što je stranac, radna dozvola, registracija...potrajaće, tako da vjerovatno neće stići odigrati meč protiv Leicestera u FA CUP-u, već naredni ligaški meč. Konačno je i to završeno. Ono lupanje cijena u javnosti oko obeštećenja i plata je senzacionalizam novinara. Sve je dogovoreno!"

English:

Here's fresh info. Džeko will go to Manchester tomorrow morning 04.01.2010. to get medical
and sign the contract. Everything between clubs MCFC and Wolfsburg has been agreed on
saturday, on sunday there were some talks between MCFC and Edin himself.

Later he mention problems about work permit and that he'll have his debut vs Lecester in FA cup,
and all that shit about wages is just tabloid stuff, everything has been agreed.

****
When ppl asked about sources of these words he said he can just say that he's close to his family
and that he knows all the details.

Here's discussion:

Don't believe every bullshit you read. sportsport is full of idiots seeking attention and this is probably one of them. Just like the Juve fans suddently making Dzeko a Juve fan :howler: In every interview he gave on television, he clearly stated that Milan is the club he supports. Obviously people will write made up stuff now as the Dzeko saga is hot at the moment.

But I do think he'll end up at City soon. You can also expect this forum to get a big boost of new regulars once he signs :D
