Deniz Yilmaz close to Blackpool Switch from Bayern Munich

According to growing reports in press Bayern Munich's Turkish under 21 striker Deniz Yilmaz is closing in on a switch to Premier League side Blackpool.

Yilmaz is an establish player in Bayern Munich 2, the reserve side for Bayern Munich. He has scored 27 times for them in 88 appearances.

The Turkish starlet will be tempted to a move to have a crack at Ist team football in the Premier League. He currently is on quite low wages and won't command a large transfer fee. All this which makes the transfer highly likely.



Chelsea's Scott Sinclair to join Blackpool Fc ?

Apparently Ian Holloway is understood to be keeping tabs on Chelsea FC starl Scott Sinclair.

Holloway discovered the winger as a 10-year-old schoolboy when in charge at Bristol Rovers. Sinclair has played under Holloway during a loan spell at Plymouth Argyle in 2008.

Sinclair spent last season on loan at Wigan Athletic but failed to get much Ist team action. Chelsea are likely to offload the winger as he has failed to impress boss Carlo Ancelloti.

Robert Koren on Blackpool FC Radar

Slovenia midfielder Robert Koren is a potential target for Blackpool FC according to News of The World.

Koren, 29, was released by West Brom following their promotion to the Premier League.

But it seems that Koren might be keen on joining Blackpool to play in the English top flight. Considering the limited funds at Holloways disposal the deal would be good for both parties.

Koren has 49 International caps for his country, Slovenia . He is the captain of the national side and scored a winner against Algeria in the on going FIFA World Cup.

The midfielder would be an excellent addition to the side considering his vast experience of the English game.

Blackpool finished sixth last season in the Championship and gained promotion having won the play offs. Holloway added that the spirit of fans and players will decide whether they avoid the relegation or not.

"You couldn't ask for any harder away games," Holloway said of Blackpool's first set of away fixtures to the club's website. "But no matter what happens, we've got to play them all by the end of the season at home and away.

"The reality has hit home now, we've seen ourselves in the division with the other names there, so it's totally real. It's fantastic for every one of us to have that challenge.

"Don't write us off too quickly with our lads, it was fantastic what they achieved last season and it's amazing what spirit can do.

Ian Holloway cools transfer fears of Blackpool fans

Ian Holloway has told concerned Blackpool FC fans not to fear about the clubs lack of activity in the transfer market.

The Tangerines were expected to add to their tiny squad but so far not a single player has arrived at Bloomfield Road.

"Why are people so worried about us not signing anyone, what is wrong with people?" Holloway told Skysports, who has been linked with a move for Arsenal's Danny Simpson, in The Blackpool Gazette. "We will get it sorted, just calm down.

"Trust the people I brought in last year. So if you're worried about the people I'll bring in this year, don't."

"If you think we are going to go into this season with what we've got, which is 16 players, then they must be crazy.

"Now is not the time to worry."

"I've left the chairman with a list of players that he's ringing up about, he'll find out how much they will be and I'll have a look at that when I get back.

"Any players that are bought and sold now will be players that we couldn't afford anyway."

The areas can be reached by a 1.5 km long cable car system, a shuttle bus, or the Ocean Express (train).
