Leroy Fer Possible Medical - BBC

[Mister Chops 7]

[quote user="Bethnal Yellow and Green"]

[quote user="Jan van Chopsburg"]Tweet from FC Twente account:To our English followers: @LeroyFer8 currently in Norwich for a medical. #fctwente #ncfc #efc[/quote]

That''s a fan site, although a surprisingly popular one. The bio says ''Twente Online is een fansite, niet de officiële clubsite'' - even without speaking Dutch I think I can work out what that means [;)]

[/quote]Well, that''s Twitter for you.  Girls will be boys and boys will be girls, or whatever it was by the Kinks.  Still, why would they make that up?

[Tetteys Jig 830]

Exactly, why would the fans want to hear that? I could imagine our unofficial sites making stuff like that up.

If the Pinkun is reporting he is in the city for a medical it''s looking odds on now. The major obstacle will be him actually passing the medical if he failed one at Everton in January.

Failed the medical yet still went on to play 30 games for Club and Country. Ho hum....

No.

I imagine McNally and Co. are far too stringent to have gone this far down the line without finding out exactly why he supposedly failed that medical and if it would be a problem.

Got a really good feeling about this player. Will hopefully cut out the goals we conceded last year by players just powering through our CM (Bale etc).

No."

Yep, the pinkun is just saying ''rumours of''.

Funny that the pinkun with at least three dedicated sports journalists can''t send one of them up to Norwich Airport after checking the flight arrivals. Might be a wild goose chase but at this time of the year what else do they have to do?

[Snoddys Jockstrap 0]

can somebody give the link of the airport arrivals? can only get ones going back to 12:20

Calm down and let these things run there course, nothing to be achieved by plane spotting.

Seems to be all coming together nicely fingers crossed.

Lets hope Fer signs up and goes out with something to prove to Everton on the opening day.

What a good time to support Norwich

[Yellow Shirt 17]

Before we count our chickens... I just read this on Skysports.com:When asked about Norwich signing Fer, his agent Rob Jansen told Tubantia: "There are actually several offers for Fer."

Woah woah woah, that sounds a bit too much like journalism to me. What has ever been wrong with just waiting for the club to feed you the story, kicking back and enjoying a nice cup of tea - it''s cosy that way.

His agent said that days ago and all the ditch press are reporting a Norwich medical today. Do keep up.

[Joanna Grey 0]

But only ours is in the public domain. Funny that because normally we are such Secret Squirrels.

[mbncfc1 0]

Just been said on ssn they believe he is having medical today and is set to sign a 5 year deal

[Tetteys Jig 830]

have we ever given someone a 5 year deal before?

De Telegraaf (renomated paper in Holland):

Leroy Fer wordt woensdag medisch gekeurd bij Norwich City. Dat betekent een spannende dag voor de speler van FC Twente, want eerder zag hij een wintertransfer naar Everton nog afketsen op de staat van zijn knie.

LF is going to have a medical at NCFC today. This means it is an exciting day for the FC Twente player, because he saw a move to Everton during the winter break down because of a knee injury

We need to be giving long contracts to this quality of player- if they shine like we hope they will they will be tough to hold on to after a year or two so we are really keeping up the value of the player. The next logical step in our evolution is to be a stepping stone club for a few seasons.

[Lets be aving you! 0]

The article in the Telegraaf (the best-selling paper in the Netherlands) says that FC Twente and Norwich have reached agreement on the transfer.

 

It adds that we''ve merely ''shown interest'' in Toivonen and Alderweireld.

[King Klose 0]

What a signing he would be!

[ReadingCanary 0]

Presume Fer will have all his stuff wrapped up tonight / tomorrow.It was widely reported Olsson had started his medical yesterday so only seems logical he was announced first. Unless someone else has come in for FerDUN DUN DUNNNNNNNNNN

[Mervmeister 18]

Don''t know of been mentioned, but have 100% confirmation Fer is indeed in Norwich. Have mate at who works at air port who messages me to let me know :) 100% genuine guy. Sorry if been confirmation already, not had chance to read through rest. He was greeted and being taken to Colney :)

[Morisons Prozac 0]

You''re too late Merv there''s a picture on Twitter of Fer in Yellows

[Mervmeister 18]

Ah ok, thought I was miles too late lol.

[ncfc2012 0]

fer passed his medical according to Dutch reporters on twitter

[Stig 0]

Fourth official reporting twente confirmed the medical ahead of signing a five year contract :D So exciting!

[Mr Brownstone 0]

This would be a huge signing if we can get it tied up, just as big as RVW. If it''s towards the €5m end of the €5m-€8m price quoted in the press, then it''s an absolute bargain too.

 

Get him signed up!
