Hm. Kills two birds with one stone. Pereira stays far away from us and one of Coentrao's possible destinations is out.
Wasn't Gala apparently in for Coentrao? If this is true, maybe we are indeed closing in on Coentrao so they're changing their sights to Pereira.

Yep. Only 3 destinations have been rumored--Man U, Gala, and us. Gala may have admitted defeat and turned to Pereira. I have tepid enthusiasm though because Man U is still lurking, although Baines is obviously their first choice.
Weren't chavs in for him as well?
He was absolutely dreadful when we played them earlier in the year.
