Been trying to scour the Spanish press for news on Saiz. One article quoting sources very closely to Getafe was very confident of a deal being sorted and agreed by this weekend, in principle. They are talking possibly about a 6 month loan followed by a purchase.

That loan angle has also been mentioned by Adam Pope but he described that as being complicated. Lots of talks going on yesterday apparently, which is where the leak seems to have come from. Saiz played for Getafe B and also had one game with Getafe in the first division, so does have links with the club. Everybody seems to agree he's homesick and we don't want to force him to stay.

He will be a loss to the squad, very skillful player, who occupies the minds and bodies of opponents, but one who needs to be happy. I would imagine Bielsa would want this dealt with quickly now and wouldn't be surprised if it's all clarified before Bolton.

It must be a sale, loan to buy is no good because knowing our luck he'll get injured in his first game.

When he goes, are we going back for a look at that Madison lad? He seems to have fallen off the radar since the close-season, don't know if he's crocked or what.

With you Al must be a straight sale in Jan no messing with loan to buy. Board seem to be good at quick sales. Shame good player.
