Toon in or drop out: Newcastle make final £6m bid for Debuchy

 

Toon boss Alan Pardew wants to make the France international his last signing of the summer

 

Newcastle will make a third and final offer of around £6m to Lille this week for French right back Mathieu Debuchy.

 

Lille president Michel Seydoux has softened his stance that Euro 2012 star Debuchy would not be allowed to leave this summer in the last few days. The Magpies will now make one last bid to land their long-standing target after two previous offers were rejected.

 

The key to Newcastle securing Debuchy rests with Lille’s Champions League hopes. If they fail to overturn Copenhagen’s 1-0 advantage at home on Wednesday and miss out in the lucrative group stages, Debuchy will be allowed to leave.

 

Pardew expects to make just one more signing this summer and admits he will be relieved if the transfer window closes on Friday with all his star players still on Tyneside.

 

The Toon boss said: “I am pretty happy with the squad. But if we do go into the market again- it will be for just one player.”

S'il vous plait! £6 million would be a reasonable offer imo so I sincerely hope something finally materialises. Ben Arfa lacked support today and Debuchy would link up with Hatem well (if their games in the French team are anything to go by...)
