Nah not permanently. The crack is apparently we have offered to pay 50% of wages and tried to get a future fee of 12m..... Even Liverpool are not that stupid!
Fair that. Ashley & Dekka will make it happen sooner or later, if they want.
We won't be paying £17m. Easy as. Everything is against Liverpool atm. They've pretty much admitted they want rid and Carroll probably wants to come back. It'll be a lot less.
From the Mirror:
"And the Liverpool owners are backing their manager’s judgement - although Newcastle must commit to a permanent £17 million transfer as part of the deal.
Newcastle are also prepared to pick up Carroll’s £75,000 wages in full - another demand by Liverpool to any other clubs after his signature."
No chance on either claims.
I'll be very disappointed if we miss out on Debuchy now. Clyne would be a good second option, but I'd still feel a bit gutted.
Also, I don't think we'll get Niang. Not when reading how much he's reportedly going for.
