Sounds like the Cassano + cash (Seven million Euros) swap for Pazzini could be done by today.

Shameful video out of Bulgaria. The guy was being racially abused after a 3-1 win by not only his own fans, but the stewards as well. And yes, those are monkey chants. What a disgrace.

Javi Martinez to Bayern Munich in richest Bundesliga transfer - ESPNFC

Bayern Munich signed midfielder Javi Martinez from Athletic Bilbao in the richest transfer in the 50-year history of the Bundesliga.

The 23-year-old Spanish defensive midfielder cost Bayern 40 million euros ($50 million), breaking the previous transfer record set when Mario Gomez joined Bayern from VfB Stuttgart in 2009.

Good player, but $50 million !? C'mon man. There's no way Bilbao could say no to that.

Good news to the rest of Europe, Mascherano is still playing CB at Barca & still getting abused.

Worst acting ever ? It's definitely got to be up there.
