relámpago blanco Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Not sure if its been posted but. http://sport.setanta.com/en/Sport/News/Football/2008/05/08/BWINLiga-Veloso-chase-hots-up/ Newcastle United are understood to have entered the chase to sign Sporting star Miguel Veloso. The highly-rated Portugal international has previously been linked with Manchester United and Tottenham but reports in his homeland claim Newcastle are the only club to make a firm approach for his services. Sporting chief Filipe Soares Franco is extremely reluctant to allow the classy midfielder to leave and fresh terms are on the table in Lisbon. However, sources suggest Newcastle are willing to offer around €20 million (around £15 million) for Veloso, with a five-year contract ready to be drawn up at St James' Park. Sporting have previously suggested they would not sell for less than €30 million (£23.5 million) so any deal could still be a long way off. Newcastle watched the 21-year-old in action during the Uefa Cup tie with Rangers at Ibrox and were impressed with his performance. Nevertheless, manager Kevin Keegan has admitted it is difficult to persuade his targets to head for Tyneside with Luka Modric recently opting for Tottenham instead despite a more lucrative deal being tabled by The Magpies. Keegan is to hold crunch talks with owner Mike Ashley after his recent comments about the harsh reality of the situation at the club amid reports that Dennis Wise and Tony Jimenez's thoughts on the transfer market differ to those of the manager Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCormick Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 15 million? A bit steep i'd say.... but i suppose we're paying for the player he'll become rather than the unfinished article that he is now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
