Bilyaletdinov on the move?

To be sincere I was a little let down with the way Manchester City tried to lure Lescott to the City of Manchester Stadium. Even though Moyes repeated over and over again that he is not interested into allowing the English international to leave Goodisoon Park. However despite this, Hughes continued to pursue the centre back, in a way that City literally unsettled the Everton centre back. The persistant talking may have influenced the Toffees performances on field. Actually Everton suffered two defeats to date; a 6-1 trashing to Arsenal and 1-0 loose to newly promoted Burnley.

Unfortunately Moyes had to surrender and to much of my annoyance, the deal was finalised today. In order to add insult to injury, Everton will use the £ 24million they earned from Lescott's trasnfer to streghten their squad and according to reports emanicipating from Russia, Everton set their sights on our captain, Bilyaletdinov. From that second I tried to picture our Loko without our talismanic captain. Just upsetting. Honeslty I don't want to be egoist and hoping that Bilya rest forever at Lokomotiv if he has the ability to play abroad, but I just couldn't get through to the fact that after Loko seemed that they have finally found their feet, we have to deal with such a blow of losing Bilya. However even if I will be literally upset if he does leave, I will be just happy for him. For sure he deserves it. I just only hope that he won't ever kiss Everton's badge. There is already Loko in his heart, and I hope that even though he may leave Moscow and maybe never wear the red-green colour again, I wish that he carries Loko in his heart wherever he goes, forever. . .

According to the reports Lokomotiv are holding out for a fee of £9 million. Moreover, reports have even claimed that a delegation associated with the Liverpool outfit will fly to Hamburg in the next 24 hours to attempt to complete a deal for the Lokomotiv Moscow winger. As Bilyaletdinov does not yet possess a UK visa, it is believed that Everton have to travel to Germany to allow the Russian international to complete a medical.

****Update****

In a press release released just minutes ago, Lokomotiv Moscow reporter Maria Ustilimova stated that the reports emanicipating from England that Bilyaletdinov is undergoing a medical in Hamburg are not true at the team being. According to her, today, Diniyar Bilyaletdinov is enjoying his day off as the rest of the team.
