Realistic Summer Targets

Huddlestone's available apparently.

 

Would anyone take him?

 

Yeah - have Butt teach him the nasty side of the game with the aim of Huddlestone being our 'Carrick' i.e: a holding ball player with some quality passing ability.

 

Any idea how much he'd cost?

 

I'd be reluctant to spend any more than £6m on him.

No idea, just read that Spurs have offered him as part of a swap deal to someone but not sure who.

imo he's not mobile enough for a 4-4-2 but i think he would fit in very well to our system. excellent passing range and adds a bit of height and presence.

 

Agreed.

Did they point him out, or was it a special feature about him? What does he even look like?

Not a target for us, but i can't believe Roeder hasn't offered Huckerby a new contract

 

speaking of glenn, he has given lee clark's brother in law a full time scouting position at norwich.

Not sure if its been posted but.

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
