Impossible; he has already played for 2 clubs this season so won't be allowed a loan. Lazy journalism to the extreme.

Didn't we get Jo during January window after City bought him off CSKA in the summer window?

Liam, that did happen but Jô never played for CSKA in that season so only played for City and Everton in the one season.

Lukaku played right at the start of this season for Andelect then Chelsea so can't play for another team. I think Stoke or someone tried to sign at the end of the last window but couldn't as obviously this rule applied.

Funny enough on the website I read the source had come from the Sun. So lazy journalism is something to be expected.

Don't think Jo had played for Moscow in that season though? Lukaku definitely played for Anderlecht.
