Newcastle United transfer rumours in the press


Recommended Posts

I'm amazed people are saying they don't want Reina, he's EXACTLY the type of player we need next season!  He's got loads of prem experience, is still a quality goalie for his age and is also apparently a massive character in the dressing room, which we're going to need particularly when a few results don't go our way.  His distribution is excellent aswell which will be like a breath of fresh air considering some of the keepers we've had recently.  Rafa will want to build the team around a solid defence so signing a reliable keeper would be a class start IMO.

What does 80% of economic rights mean? 80% of the sale profits?

Yeah, I think it basically means a 20% sell-on clause.

 

20% of him will be owned by a third party.

:thup:  The idea of getting someone like that for a few million is smut to me.

I guess nobody is going to get anywhere near the actual release clause, if they want to sell they'll need to charge a normal fee.

 

Been reported that they will look at offers, and the release clause will not really come into play, as they need to sell players.

If the Reina rumours are true, I'm happy to see he's identified goalkeeper as a position we need to strengthen. No idea if Reina is still up to it but he has an absolute wealth of experience and a glittering honours list, so am happy to trust Rafa if this is the man he wants. Can only be a good thing for our young keepers, too.
