Newcastle United transfer rumours in the press


Recommended Posts

Newcastle are set to beat Liverpool to the signature of Brazil forward Luan, 24, from Gremio for £17.5m. (Sun)

 

From the BBC transfer gossip page. Sounds more exciting than the Dane from Holland.

 

Luan with an option to buy?

Only three days ago they wrote a article saying his release clause was £15.77m :lol:

Just watched some clips and he's big and athletic. Makes some nice driving runs in that position and shoots from range. Looks like the kind of player Rafa likes to have playing in that position e.g. Gerrard and Diame.

 

Would love us to sort that position out and maybe then get a striker on loan like Slimani, Sturridge or Sandro.

Think 17.5m Euros is around £15.77m. Currency confusion.

Wish I hadn't looked up this guy. By all accounts he is a massive talent (the link below calls him the next Ronaldinho ffs) and very highly thought of in Brazil, with Liverpool and Barca the clubs apparently registering an interest.

Even ignoring our ineptitude in the market, this deal looks pretty farfetched in all honesty.

Sounds more like they've been trying to get him a move to a big club, but those clubs don't seem to rate him as highly as the typical talents they go for.

 

The guy is 24 and still in Brazil, and with a clause that low?! Think we have a chance tbh.

 

Watford managed to get Richarlison over the summer, who has been brilliant. And he is only 20 years old and only cost them £11m. Where was the competition for him?

I'd be shocked and delighted if we signed Luan. Was instrumental in Gremios Copa Libertadores title and has been excellent whenever I've seen him play. Would be a real coup if we actually did this.

Tell you what gives me a bit more hope too.

 

Rafa has previous with Gremio. Bought Lucas Leiva direct from them in 2007.

 

Hopefully this Luan link is true and a good relationship with Rafa facilitates this.

That'll be the reason for the bullshit article then. :thup:

 

You guys even wake up miserable :lol:

 

It's pathetic! Listen goof ball, I have spoken it into existence. It's going down  :D

Utter nonsense.  We're apparently the front runnners for the signing of a young brazilian attacker ahead of Barca and Liverpool?  Living on planet bullshit.

 

We'll be lucky to get a second choice striker from a championship club.
