Now That's What I Call Transfer Rumours! 7

[McCormick]

That “If” is doing a lot of heavy lifting there, like.

[The Prophet]

I didn't even realise it was a possibility.

Unfortunately they don’t know whether it is either.

[Keegans Export]

Unless they have come down considerably from their £50-60m valuation of Isak there's no chance of either of those moves happening.

Things need to kick on this week.

And dont give me that "Dont look up" - We have time nonsense. I am impatient

[The College Dropout]

Brighton game showed the lack of ability that we have in midfield. RW, CM and ST would be ideal. Expect us to get the attacking 2.

RW, CM, and ST is definitely the ideal. Still not completely out of hope that it can happen.

this will excite a few

Probably before being loaned out.

 

"8 year deal on the proviso that he accepts being loaned out to multiple PL teams for the duration."

Few links to midfielders though..

I'd take that. I don't think we're going to sign a first choice striker ahead of Wilson yet so someone as a stop-gap able to step in until next summer as cover whenever he's needed is fine with me this year.

[The Prophet]

Ramos permanent and Pulisic on loan would be a tasty end to the window.

[TheHoob]

Staveley and Mehrdad were at Chelsea yesterday as well

And Paqueta

[ponsaelius]

Pulisic to me seems like it might be doable. His wages aren't that crazy despite the club he's at. Wouldn't have been my first choice but actually, when you think about it, would be a really good signing.

[Hanshithispantz]

We might have to anoint Kanji as our resident yank ambassador to keep check of the mentalists.

It's too early for that kind of dirty talk.

[Yorkie]

"Pulisic is also a possible loan target," is what the article says, before anyone gets a chub-on based on a tweet from NUFC360.

 

Seems plausible mind. 

[gdm]

Can’t say I’ve paid to much attention to Pulisic. Would he be a good signing? Doesn’t seem to get many goals or assists looking at his stats 

[Yorkie]

Pope, Targett, Botman, Pulisic and Ramos would be an absolutely brilliant window btw, assuming Ramos isn't shite. 

[Keegans Export]

I think of all the players we've been linked with recently that I'd consider realistic or doable, Pulisic would be pretty much top of my list. 

[The Prophet]

From Ornstein's weekly column in the Athletic:

 

"Staveley and Ghodoussi have plenty to talk to Chelsea about

Amanda Staveley and Mehrdad Ghodoussi launched a thousand Twitter conspiracies on Sunday when the Newcastle co-owners were pictured at Stamford Bridge watching Chelsea’s home match against Tottenham.

 

A day after attending Newcastle’s goalless draw down the road in Brighton, a result that brought Eddie Howe’s team their fourth point of the season, the pair were seen in conversation with Behdad Eghbali, who holds a similar position to theirs at the west London club.

 

Newcastle are still looking to further strengthen their first-team squad before the transfer window closes, with multiple sources at the club telling The Athletic they believe they are at least one attacking player short of where they want to be.

 

Internally, there have been discussions about Chelsea trio Armando Broja, Conor Gallagher and Callum Hudson-Odoi, while Timo Werner was spoken about as a possible loan signing before making a permanent move back to RB Leipzig last week.

 

Another Chelsea player, USMNT captain Christian Pulisic, is also a potential loan target.

 

It is understood Staveley and Ghodoussi, who are married, were there at the invitation of Boehly — someone Staveley knows as a friend after they both spoke at an event hosted by American economic think-tank the Milken Institute in 2019 titled Investing In Volatile Markets.

 

While Sunday’s meeting was a social one, Staveley and Ghodoussi have forged a strong relationship with Chelsea, a club they hope Newcastle will be rivalling for trophies within the next few years.

 

Sometimes, such relationships can lead in interesting directions, not least when it comes to mutually beneficial transfers."

From a football standpoint he'd be a good signing but we'll end up with loads of yanks on here posting about soccerball and jerseys and playoffs and shit.
