Kasper leaves for County!

Kasper Schmeichel has signed for Notts County on a five year deal. The fee is believed to be a club record for County, their biggest fee payed to date is £685,000, which they paid Sheffield United in 1991 for Tony Agana.

Kasper will be reunited with Sven at the City of the the lower leagues. It is a strange choice because although County are rich now, there is a rule in the lower leagues that you must spend only a certain percentage of what you take in, so he can't be getting massive wages. I am certain he could have gone to a club playing at a higher level, so all in all a bit of a strange move for Kasper to make.

I was always a Kasper fan and am sorry he has gone to be honest, I hope he progresses to a top level because I think he is good enough.

Schmeichel says 'no' to IF Elfsborg

According to Elfsborg director Stefan Andreasson, Kasper has turned down the chance to go on loan to the Swedish side.

Stefan Andreasson said..............

''When you look at the market, he is obviously one of the names that keeps coming up, but Kasper is not interested''

For someone to turn down a loan move that is suppose to be desperate for first team football is strange, I wonder if it was Kasper's decision and not the clubs.

City sign goalkeeper Gunnar Nielsen!

City have today announced the signing of Faroe Islands Under 21 International keeper Gunnar Nielsen (pictured).

The 22 year old goalkeeper who had previously played at Blackburn under Mark Hughes has signed a two and a half year deal.

To give a 22 year old a two and a half year deal makes it obvious he is in the clubs medium term plans. I would think Hughes has signed him to prepare early for Kasper Schmeichel's departure in the summer, or his possible loan departure in the immediate future.
