There's every possibility that we are not trying to spend any money on a right back and that we will use the money from Simpson to pay for Debuchy (or at worst some of the best/forster money).

 

Keeping our powder dry for a striker, I reckon.

"Over the line", love how everyone's adopted Pardspeak now :D

 

Good news but even so it could still potentially rumble on for another week.  Hope we get him in quickly so he has plenty of time to get himself and his family etc settled.

Sky Sports sources understand Newcastle United are close to sealing a deal for France international Mathieu Debuchy.

 

The Magpies targeted the Lille defender ahead of Euro 2012 and, following his impressive showing in Poland and Ukraine, made a bid which was rejected.

 

Italian giants Inter Milan also saw a bid rejected, and as recently as this week Lille stated they hoped to agree a new deal with the 26-year-old.

 

However, Newcastle have re-opened talks in the last 48 hours and are now close to coming to an agreement on a deal worth around £7million.

 

The Magpies are hoping to push through the deal in the coming days as they want Debuchy signed and sealed, so he can join their pre-season tour of Germany.
