NUFC transfer rumours in the press

I'm not sure that Weimann would be much of an improvement on Cisse and Gouffran.

 

Is Benteke out of the question? He's probably destined for the CL, but he'd be perfect for us.

 

Maybe if Benteke goes to Chelsea, Lukaku would become available. I'd go for that.

 

 

I'd say Lukaku will go for nothing less than £30m. Benteke probably around £20m if Villa stay up.

 

I don't know about £30m for Lukaku, but £20m for Benteke would be worth it. He would make such a difference to the way we can play. Defenders fear him, they don't go charging in.

 

Assuming we stay up, I would much rather we paid big money for one player than spread the budget on a number of players who wouldn't be a significant improvement on what we have.

 

keep dreaming. we will never fork out more than 12 to 13 mill on a player and thats even unlikely. We just need to scout and find a player like Benteke and get him for an affordable price.

Newcastle are hopeful of fending off interest from Arsenal to secure a summer deal for Nigeria international Godfrey Oboabona.

 

The 23-year-old is desperate to leave current club Sunshine Stars at the end of the season, and his agent has been actively offering him around European clubs.

 

Oboabona already has a number of potential suitors, but underwent a trial with Arsenal last month in a bid to try and win a contract with his boyhood club.

 

The Gunners eventually decided against offering him a deal – yet have maintained their presence at his matches and continue to monitor his progress.

 

Lille and Rennes from the French league are known to have approached the defender, who can play centre back or in midfield, but it’s thought that Newcastle are now the front runners for his signature.

 

Magpies manager Alan Pardew is desperate to add to his defensive options in the summer, and reports in the Nigerian press claim a £1million move is on the cards.

 

Oboabona has 16 caps for his country, but is not a regular, and Newcastle know they face a battle with the Home Office in order to secure a work permit to wrap up the transfer.
