LRD Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Sounds like OM have done him a proposal to join for free next season.. He can sign a pre-contract agreement with a non-French club from January on while OM can only do so 12 weeks from the end of the contract. We'll just have to step in earlier if that's the case. Doubt his entourage are the type to honour any agreement with OM anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubt his entourage are the type to honour any agreement with OM anyway. Yeah but this bit sounds like OM has maybe made an unofficial approach which they aren't happy about: I also filed yesterday (Monday) a complaint to the Legal Committee for the destabilization of some players. Some clubs have made improper proposals. "It should be of French clubs since President Aulas complained to the LFP. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLK Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 It seems to me neither Newcastle nor OL want to pay the additiona excessive fees (agent and/or his old club st etienn). OM are hoping to get him for almost free (well they are ok to pay the excessive fees in 12 months time if thats the only thing to pay for). OL and Aulas is of course not happy because Gomis will go for free. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Lisandro Lopez leaving OL. Looks like Gomis and Lopez are their only first team strikers according to GFN. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 They must be planning to sign someone anyway, surely. I mean even if Gomis doesn't come to us he's going to be off either now or very soon in the future. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tisd09 Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Oh FFS, can we just sack this off and move on to another target? It does sound like he is waiting for Marseille to do something concrete. This is different from the Remy saga in January. Remy's first choice was us, almost doubling his salary turned his head. Sounds like Gomis will be settling for 2nd best if he signs for us. Kinnear (I know I know) has said there are other targets time to start on them then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDT Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 I hear there's a Nigerian international in the last year of his contract who's been tearing it up in pre-season. Maybe they'd be interested? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Phil K Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 This is ridiculous. If he was Suarez or Rooney or Bale, I'd understand it, but he's NOT - he's an unproven forward who may or may not do it. He and his stinking agents are insulting us. Tell him to go f**k himself Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell him to go f**k himself I'm tempted to agree TBH, but I think he would offer us something we need and also I can't imagine we have a load of backup options lined up.

hoppaz Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Next. I wonder is Jordan Rhodes is on our list of targets? He ticks a number of boxes in my book. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping we can still work it out. You read that it's: A/ The agents wanting a bigger cut of the deal for themselves B/ The Lyon boss waiting hoping someone will pay more (they won't) C/ Marseille wanting him, Gomis wants to go but Marseille want him for free D/ His agents want Newcastle to pay a "severance fee" and Newcastle are LIVID at the idea, and his agents aren't budging and E/ ALL of the above Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping we can still work it out. Brown Ideye? Lacina Traore? Although LT is supposed to be close to signing for either CSKA or Spartak Brown has been watched a few times before. Hopefully we have a few options outside of Gomiss/Gignac(shudder) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Gleebals Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Out of interest for all those on here saying walk away from the deal and are also not keen on Darren Bent... Who do you think we could be targeting realistically?... No one. I think the excuses for getting one person on loan and no one else, despite a number leaving will be along the usual lines or could not get over the lines. "we are happy with what we have got and will see if we need to add in January" If this deals collapses, that's it I reckon - no other players in. NO investment.

Only one of those who have left will actually be missed though, same applies if Gosling does go. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
