NUFC transfer rumours in the press


Recommended Posts

Complaining about ashley is pointless. He has this club in a vice grip that won't be let go till he dies

 

We best not complain then.

We've never bid £22m, a cynic would say that kind of talk is very well timed, surely season tickets can't be up for renewal ?

 

Who says we have?

Various papers, websites etc, seems to range from £17m to £22m, The Chronicle reckon it's £19m (quoting someone else i think) but Lyon want £24m, The Mail (i know) reckon £22m was accepted but Lacazette turned us down.

 

Multiple reports seem to give it some traction, If you believe any of them of course.

Most of the french media who are reporting it are usually reliable tbh. I believe we offered it, i also believe that we knew that it wouldn't be successful.

Unless the deal was going ahead, I would expect us to deny it.  Can't let other clubs know we have money to spend - they might ask for a bigger fee.

Even if it were true (nah), why the hell would he want to come here? :lol:

 

Exactly why they have bid for him. So they can say they tried. "January is a hard market" blah blah blah.... I hope we go down.

:thup:

 

Cringeworthy watching the likes of Ryder peddle articles today in which he linked to reports in France in an attempt to try and prove they hadn't made it up.

 

Luke Edwards saw right through it, though.

Our only signing will be  Fer Ken nee wan . Leave all hope of a sensible club at the door as we slip through the trap door into oblivion, however this time there won't be a comeback. Too busy fucking about trying to sign players from abroad just spend us monopoly money on Austin and be done with it

The Northern Echo say we are looking to sign Bas Dost now.

 

Going from Lacazette to Dost :(

Him and Mitrovic not the most mobile pairing.

I don't understand the logic if the Bas Dost rumour is even remotely true with him being incredibly similar in style to Mitrovic. It wouldn't make any sense.

The logic being we were linked in the summer and are after a striker. Nice easy story to fill space without actually doing any journalism

And the fact our recent strategy is to hound players we are interested in window after window until they lose enough form to change their mind and sign for us.

Surely before any bid is made for Lacazette we would have spoken to his agent/people to establish if he would be interested in joining? Knowing upfront he wouldn't want to come to us, we wouldn't then make a bid. Either his agent trying to force a move elsewhere and name dropping us or more bullshit from us so we can claim to have tried but failed to get it over the line.

The French media said the same about Thauvin in the summer. "Don't want to move, don't want to sign for Newcastle" ect ect.
