Reckon we have deliberately done this to pressure Mitrovic to gives us an answer.

He is also saying Roma have blocked out move for mitrovic.

Out it on here instead of twitter thread but not sure if he is a real football writer.... 5m5 minutes ago Emanuele Giulianelli ‏@EmaGiulianelli Searching an agreement with Sevilla that asked €13mln to Newcastle for Banega. Offered 4 years at €3mln/y to the player.

Surely if you had less than 48 hours to decide on a move you wouldn't be training and in your teams official squad photograph for next season

He is in training with Anderlecht again today, so if us giving him a deadline is true then it looks certain that he has turned us down.

There owner or whoever is in charge of transfers is back of holiday tomorrow so no deal was expected to be done till then.

Rumours on twitter suggesting the reason his dad is holding up the deal is he thinks his family will have visa issues when trying to come over here and watch him play.

The Times suggesting we need to increase our offer, from the glimpse of the article it has no mention of him rejecting us.

He is saying Belgian sources are saying that he will be here within 24 hours.

Pretty sure we had a similar situation when we where trying to get Anita.

Can't see that. When did he say that? Kristan Heneage – ‏@KHeneage @elmarcosmasonos Have heard he's heading to Tyneside now to discuss things with Newcastle the only real offer on the table. Kristan Heneage – ‏@KHeneage @TomFry9 No won't happen this weekend. I'd shoot closer to midweek if things go smoothly.

Kristan Heneage on twitter said he has heard Mitrovic is heading to newcastle today and expects deal to be done mid week if all goes as planned. Not sure if this should be in the twitter thread but the guy is a football writer so put it in here.

As much as i want to believe it, i'd say the Austin part discredits the report. Not a chance in hell we are spending nearly 30m on two strikers Pretty much every media report since the end of last season said we want two new strikers like, however I agree it wouldn't be Mitrovic and Austin, more likely one of them and some random cheap foreigner

Mirror saying we want the Stuttgart CB Rudiger I think it's spelt?

His family has arrived in newcastle and he is set to sign a 5 year deal according to the mirror. Also says we still want Austin and Thauvin.

Not sure on the source but.... http://www.turkish-football.com/newcastle-striker-agrees-personal-terms-with-trabzonspor/?

Who has less interest than both Matip and Mitrovic in coming here. There has been no actual quotes from him or his agent though has there? As with Mitrovic only the club themselves no exactly what is going on. Based on the a Wijnaldum signing, I'm more confident now that we wouldn't be in for these players and making serious bids unless we know they are interested.

Going off Steve Mc comments about us targeting champions league quality players in the higher price bracket, I think our main CB target is still that Monaco lad Abdennour.

How long we in America for because we will do absolutely nothing in the transfer market whilst we are away.

These seem to have been spot on so far... Sp. Anderlecht news – ‏@Sporting_AND @bignes1080 @NUFC_Stats Don't worry, mitrovic will sign for #nufc. Italian media are trying to scare you

McClaren comes out of this sounding almost as bad as Pardew. Basically nothing has or will change, and they discreetly put in the transfer excuses all the way through.

The full north east media are at the training ground today, wonder if any of them think about doing there jobs and ask for updates on transfers.

Knockbacks are catnip to Ashley et al, we can drag it right out through the window and use it as an excuse for not signing anyone. #guesswhowinsagain Yep exactly, the exact same thing happened with Lacazette and Remy last summer.

Can't tell if he is actually a real reporter but he claims Mitrovic will have medical here tomorrow.
