Barnes23 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/3538878/NEWCASTLE-are-ready-to-make-a-15million-bid-for-Senegal-star-Moussa-Sow.html NEWCASTLE are ready to make a £15million bid for Lille hitman Moussa Sow. Sow, 25, is the leading scorer in French Ligue One this season with 21 goals and his side lead champs Marseille by one point in the title race. The Senegal star has hit the big-time after four indifferent seasons at Rennes. Lille will drive a hard bargain for their most prized asset as they are keen to keep hold of him for at least one more season. Magpies chief scout Graham Carr watched Sow in last week's defeat at Monaco. Toon boss Alan Pardew is ready to spend big as he bids to replace Andy Carroll at the end of the season following the England's striker's £35m January switch to Liverpool.

Ikon Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 15M is alot of money, what if it turns out that he's a one season wonder (not that i think so) He is also playing with arguably the best midfield (except Lyon) in Ligue 1 behind him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colocho Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Sow is not going to be an easy player to sign. Lille are top of the league, and I would say nailed on to qualify for Champions League football next season. I would be very, very surprised if they let him go. El-Arabi is a far more realistic option, and out of Sow, Gameiro and Gervinho, he is the player I would concentrate on signing. Why? Caen are in the Ligue 1 relegation zone and out of the beforementioned he would command the lowest transfer fee, and wages. Saying that, if Lille are to sell Sow, I'd expect them to replace him with El-Arabi. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was about to make that point, I would much prefer Gameiro or El Arabi to Sow, based on the amount of goals they've got for weaker teams. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colocho Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Gameiro has said he wants to move to Spain, preferably a club like Villareal. To those of you suggesting Sow may be a 'one season wonder' have you seen him play? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Roger Kint Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Would seriously question why we would pay huge money(well it is for us) on someone who could miss 2 months of the next two seasons with the ACN, especially given the points made by colocho and tomlker Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes me pretty happy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ikon Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Colocho, true. Even IF we could attract him he would probably demand pretty high wages as well. El Arabi is a good shout, and a lot more likely. Personally i would rather go for Caicedo and Rondon instead of paying 15m for one striker, or one of them plus Arabi. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shayno Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 This is only Sow's first season at Lille, hard to see them getting rid of him when they are likely to play in the champions league and they are already likely to lose Gervinho. Good player though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
