Hey guys, found in Tribalfootball:
The agent of Dynamo Kyiv defender Pape Diakhate admits he spoke with Portsmouth and Liverpool about moving to England before yesterday's transfer deadline.
Paul Tavares said: "There were always talks with Portsmouth, but it's very very difficult. Liverpool is over.
"He will stay and we will work towards the winter transfer window. He does not have any preference, but we will review in ten days."
Not sure if this has any truth in it but it seems we were in discussions for a move at the eleventh hour?
