SUPERTOON Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 Amazed at how many people want Grealish tbh, not the right profile at all. Fortunately i don't think we have any interest whatsoever. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thumbheed Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 Grealish makes sense from a business sense, maybe? Would allow us to sell a LW for PSR, and defer the cost of a replacement for a year. He's a good player tbf, just over coached imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Displayname Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 21 hours ago, STM said: Suggestion: Mateus Fernandes. If Longstaff goes, we need someone in midfield. Fernandes is 20, has PL experience, has tonnes for Howe to work with. Wouldn't likely cost a fortune. At his age, he'd likely be fine dipping in and out of the team and would very much fall into the "one for the future" bracket. Longstaff out for 20m and this lad in for 30m would seem a smart move and wouldn't be expensive PSR wise. Sure, but.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 "Confidential reported last week that Aston Villa hold an interest in Harvey Barnes, while Newcastle like Villa’s attacking midfielder Jacob Ramsey, giving rise to a swap deal with PSR benefits. We can now reveal that this was first floated in January - from the Villa end - at a time when Barnes was out of the Newcastle team and Villa were looking to get their books in order ahead of June’s PSR deadline. It did not happen then - Barnes suffered a thigh injury in the middle of the month - but there has been fresh talk in some circles of a deal being revisited. However, the message back to Confidential this week is that Eddie Howe does not want to lose the 27-year-old ahead of next season. He has started the last nine matches, scoring four and assisting four, and has shown his worth during his first run of consistent games since joining the club in 2023. Villa were also interested back then. But Barnes is said to be settled on Tyneside and, with Newcastle set to combine Premier League and Champions League campaigns next term, it appears more likely that he will stay at St James’ Park. The winger has also shown his versatility by starting or moving to the right wing in recent matches. Ramsey, meanwhile, retains admirers within Newcastle’s coaching and recruitment set-up. The 23-year-old has two years to run on his contract and Villa could decide that the time is right to sell this summer, especially amid PSR concerns." ... "Newcastle scouts have been on the list to watch Borussia Dortmund in recent weeks, and Confidential has been told of two players upon whom reports have been returned - goalkeeper Gregor Kobel and winger Jamie Gittens. The club’s want for a keeper this summer is well known, and we understand the asking price for Burnley’s James Trafford is around £30million. The 22-year-old remains the top target. However, work continues to identify alternatives and Kobel, 27, is highly rated. He has been a Switzerland team-mate of Fabian Schar and has Champions League experience, including two clean sheets against Newcastle last season. Gittens, meanwhile, is of interest to a host of Premier League clubs, with Newcastle among them - Chelsea and Arsenal have also been linked. The England Under 21s star has scored 12 times this season from 34 starts and, with a release clause that will fall from £50m if Dortmund fail to make the Champions League, a move to the Premier League is on the cards. The 20-year-old is versatile and can operate on both wings as well as in behind a striker. I spoke to him after a Dortmund game a couple of seasons back and he was engaging and bright. My colleagues in Germany were super excited about his potential and his development has led to interest from Europe’s top sides." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bunk Moreland Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 Just reading up on Gittens, seems he's already told Dortmund he wants to leave this summer. Apparently because their coach is playing a system that doesn't suit him rather than anything more dramatic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 I’d like a cheeky bid for Harry Kane if we get champions league, nice back up. Just a thought don’t kill me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 (edited) He’s a bit one dimensional Gittens according to some German fans. They said that if Dortmund got anywhere near 50m euros for him they would be laughing on their way to the bank. He hasn’t even proved himself in the Bundesliga yet. Also, don’t see us being after him anyway. Edited May 15 by Ikon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, don’t see us being after him anyway. Probably not but he knows the premier league and a proven goal scorer. Good starter for cup games and last 30 minutes etc.. Rather him than Wilson, but like you say sights could be set higher. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
