All these links highlight how there are no real secrets in football regarding young players anymore. We definitely seem to have shifted policy, but still battling with the so called elite to sign them.

Yup, as I've been saying PSR and the other silly financial rules means only one profile of player is attractive and thus every major club in Europe after looking at the same pool of young upcoming players or protect the downside. Only absolute despos want your Wissas as your taking on board so much risk from a financial POV.

promising under-21s will hopefully be afforded loans to gain experience, although that will partly depend upon incoming business and whether they impress during pre-season and force their way into Howe’s plans.

 

Sean Neave, the 19-year-old striker, and Leo Shahar, the 19-year-old full-back, have excelled at under-21 level and the former in particular looks ready for a loan.

 

Alex Murphy, the 21-year-old defender, has reached the stage whereby he needs a loan or permanent exit, given he has started a solitary game.

 

What moves have they made already?

 

At senior level, Trippier and Krafth’s exits have been confirmed, with most of the soon-to-be-out-of-contract players set to follow. John Ruddy, the goalkeeper, and Matt Targett, the full-back who has been on loan at Middlesbrough, will depart.

 

Schar, the 34-year-old centre-half, had been expected to leave, but has been offered an extension (reflecting an altered squad status and a drop in salary) and talks between Newcastle and his camp are ongoing.

 

At academy level, Newcastle have already signed 17-year-old Ecuadorian Johan Martinez from Independiente del Valle. The exciting winger will remain in Ecuador until he turns 18 and move to Tyneside in 2027.

 

Martinez embodies the profile of player Wilson hopes to lure, from home and abroad, to the academy this summer, with more to follow.

 

That the first Waugh instalment?

Interesting bit here.

Are there any specific players they are targeting?

 

Newcastle’s long-term admiration of James Trafford is well documented, and their interest remains, though extracting the England international goalkeeper from Manchester City will prove expensive — plus they face stiff competition. Brighton’s Bart Verbruggen and Lens’ Robin Risser have also been tracked, but Borussia Dortmund’s Gregor Kobel is likely beyond their financial means. Reims’ Ewen Jaouen is liked, but if Newcastle sign the 20-year-old, it will likely be alongside the acquisition of a more senior shot-stopper.

 

At centre-half, Atalanta’s Giorgio Scalvini has long been followed, and Como’s Jacobo Ramon is liked, while at full-back, Club Brugge’s Joaquin Seys and Toulouse’s Dayann Methalie were discussed in January.

 

In midfield, Porto’s Victor Froholdt has been watched, while Monaco’s Lamine Camara and Auxerre’s Kevin Danois have previously featured during internal discussions. Newcastle anticipate AZ’s highly-rated Kees Smit, who they enquired about last summer, will join a bigger European club.

 

Howe is an admirer of West Ham forward Jarrod Bowen, though a transfer seems unlikely at this stage, with a host of wingers on the continent watched, including Hoffenheim’s Bazoumana Toure and Koln’s Said El Mala. Real Betis’ Abde Ezzalzouli is also on their radar, but no approach has bee

n made.

Some good names, I look forward to reading the exact same ones weekly until the window closes.

Will be a mistake not to go for Hackney imo. Certainly for the prices mentioned.

I’m sure I’ve read that exact same

article three weeks running with a very minor tweak. For all Waugh’s good points around tactical analysis, transfer tattle is very much on his “must do better” list.

He has what? 3 years left? Rackon we should be fine but he needs a new deal.

I think 4? But I’m guessing. I’d imagine (hope) he signed 6 years after his loan, but I don’t know.

Deep insights into the club befitting of a subscription? Basically the same level of access other journalists at the athletic have.

Thats not what the “Deal Sheet” is about which is what we were discussing specifically (Transfer News).

It's apart of it no, I think one of the critiques of Waugh is he doesn't appear to ever break any stories TransferWise or not. 

 

 

[The Prophet]

The best thing about the deal sheet is the weekly hysteria is prompts in online circles, despite never saying anything particularly new.

That’s being kind, it’s never new. It’s literally the same 5/6 names every single week, copy and paste.

It’s got nothing to do with my response or what I was questioning. It was related to his articles on transfer tittle tattle. Re-read.

To be fair some of the names in this edition are new, plus this is the first of the window.

And that’s why the world is crumbling into disarray and confusion. I was replying to someone else’s point not yours 🤣

 

Is it only June the 2nd? When does the window close 😆

No dissray here, I was making a side point and quoting you. 

 

It's going to be a long summer, that's something we can agree though

[Andy84]

What’s waffles got for us

[r0cafella]

Waugh did mention it appears to be one In one out this summer, I think that's something @TheBrownBottle has been saying for a few weeks too.
