Because rumours can not only be true or false but somewhere betwixt and between the two.
For example it would be laughable for the club to announce a deal before it has been done because of half truths and innuendo and then the deal not go ahead.
I don't see what all the big deal and fuss is about. If we get him then great, if we don't then we move on. Let's just all be patient and allow the club go through their processes in the correct manner before they confirm or deny this. There's no need for us to pressure them in to doing what could be the wrong thing.
