Two down and one to go. With Fernando Torres and Darren Bent signed and sealed, the last of this triumvirate of long-running transfer sagas is that of West Ham's Carlos Tevez - whose fate will reportedly be decided once Argentina are finished with the Copa America.

Until then, we have a host of other deals that may or may not occur. You decide!

Sportinglife.com is confident that Gabriel Heinze will buy out his Manchester United contract and join Liverpool. Heinze has been in and out of the Sir Alex Ferguson's plans, with Patrice Evra taking his spot more often than not. So a move is on the cards - but to Liverpool? I think it's 7/10 he will go to Anfield.

Another big name on the move, according to The Sun, is Frank Lampard, who has been the subject of a £12m bid from busy Barcelona. Frank has yet to put pen to paper on a Chelsea deal that he hinted should have been offered sooner. He still has two years to run on his current contract but was apparently offered another one which he has still to agree on. Hence the speculation that he may soon end his six-year stint at the Bridge and be kissing an altogether different club badge should he fire in another deflected 25-yarder. It's 5/10 Lampard to be somewhere other than west London in August - and I don't mean on holiday.

The Times is in my opinion unwisely predicting that Arsenal's Johann Djourou may be about to sign a season-long loan deal with either Portsmouth or Birmingham. The big Swiss defender is surely beyond needing experience garnered from a loan stint; he figured in more than half of the Gunners' Premiership outings last season and is surely a big part of Arsene's plans. I rate it 0/10 Djourou to be borrowing another set of kit for a season.

West Ham are eyeing up Ghanaian Stephen Appiah of Fenerbache with a view to a £5m move (Daily Mirror). Appiah is a class act and would suit Alan Curbishley well, especially If they do, as expected, sell Nigel Reo-Coker. The former Juventus man would be an admirable addition to the Premiership and I think he would neatly fill the cult-hero role should Tevez's departure occur. 9/10


Spurs boss Martin Jol is looking into adding to his midfield department by approaching Celta Vigo with a view to securing the services of Borja Oubina and Nene (AS). Jol is cleverly targeting a team who by getting relegated from La Liga are going to find it hard to keep hold of a pair of young talents such as these. Expect one or both to be at Spurs if Jol is really interested. 8/10 - but only if Martin wants them.

Randy Lerner is about to become a less wealthy man to the tune of £30m in the coming weeks, according to the Daily Star . Aston Villa are reportedly about to go on a frenzied spending spree and the names that Martin O'Neil apparently wants include Jermain Defoe, Jussi Jaaskelainen, Nigel Reo-Coker and Shaun Wright-Phillips. Firstly I am doubtful you could get all four for £30m, but I rate these signings as follows. Defoe 4/10, Jaaskelainen 7/10, Reo-Coker 9/10 and SWP 2/10.

Finally, Portsmouth are said to be making a move for Sevilla hitman Freddie Kanoute (Marca), which is a little bit unlikely. Why? Firstly, Pompey are said to have only offered £4m of the £10m expected by the UEFA Cup winners and secondly the former Spurs and West Ham man claimed recently that he has no interest in leaving. It's 0/10 Kanoute to be at Fratton Park next season, unless it’s a pre-season friendly
