      In what may prove to be the biggest transfer story this summer, negotiations have begun to bring Paul the psychic octopus to Madrid after he correctly predicted Spain's World Cup final victory.

      Madrid's Zoo Aquarium says it is prepared to trump any other offer Germany's Oberhausen Sea Life Centre receives for Paul, certain that the world's most famous cephalopod will attract thousands of visitors.

      At present no cash is on the table, and the zoo says it is trying to negotiate an exchange of animals.

      Sounding more like the president of Real Madrid than a zookeeper, a spokesman said he was confident that Paul would be in Madrid within a few days. Madrid was prepared to offer Oberhausen "whatever they demand" to complete the deal — suggesting that this will be a cash-plus-animal transfer.

      He added that Paul, named after a German children's book by Boy Lornsen, would be treated "with tender loving care" because of his national treasure status in Spain.

      The octopus can only pick one out of two...so it's useless to me when I need "Paul" to help predict the Ascot winner

      whilst thois thing is quite good at what he does, DILLIGAF lol
      it is better to fail aiming high, than to succeed aiming low,
      and we spurs fans have set our sites very high,
      so high in fact that even failure will have in it
      an echo of glory.

      Realistically, we've probably got more chance of signing Paul than we have of signing some of the names in this transfer section!
