Nothing confirmed by the club yet, so did those two deals actually go through?

The answer is in the corresponding thread.

What a selling point to potential right wingers wanting to join us, is this little statement . . .

 

"Come and join us with Isak and Gordon up front, and Joelinton, Bruno and Tonali behind you"

 

There cannot be better anywhere !!!!!

Very true, and also, what RW wouldn't want to hoist the PL trophy next season?

Piece up about the last few days in the athletic. 
 

Spoiler

A fortnight ago, there were fears inside the club that a double-digit points deduction was possible given the scale of their deficit

Premier League clubs speculated that Newcastle’s black hole was anywhere between £30m and £100m and, by Saturday morning, Newcastle still needed to recoup in excess of £50m

Whether Newcastle have satisfied PSR remains unclear given the opaque nature of the system, although some insiders believe they have done enough to avoid a points deduction, even if the calculation is believed to be tight

Minteh was seen as part of the solution for weeks, but Lyon’s £40m offer led to Newcastle holding out for that valuation, despite the player being reluctant to move and the club aggressively attempting to convince him to

Rival clubs tried to capitalise on perceived vulnerability, with Chelseamaking enquiries about Isak, though Newcastle explored every alternative avenue to keep the striker

Conversations with Liverpool over Gordon came out of desperation, despite Newcastle wanting to retain the winger, but there are lingering fears internally that his head may have been turned

Newcastle did explore the Saudi Pro League avenue but could not conclude any deals

Several transfer meetings were held across the week, including a final one on Sunday afternoon, when a third sale was contemplated, with Kieran Trippier’s name floated just hours before he started for England against Slovakia at Euro 2024

Miguel Almiron, Sean Longstaff and Callum Wilson are other players believed to have been floated as possible exits

Newcastle had reluctantly identified Anderson as a candidate for sale in January given he generates “pure profit” as an academy graduate, but he was injured

Everton’s Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Liverpool’s Jarell Quansah, Forest’s Anthony Elanga and Wolverhampton Wanderers’ Max Kilman were among the players Newcastle discussed signing as part of potential deals

Newcastle actually now have decent capacity to spend given 2021-22’s accounts have dropped off the PSR cycle and income from their Adidas deal can be booked

Sounds like a bit of a mess tbh, glad we can now focus on incomings.

Full thing reads when worst, we aren’t even certainly it’s enough. We considered selling someone else right up until yesterday afternoon. :lol:

The worst bit about all this for me is the idea we were actively peddling Gordon to Liverpool?

 

He's our player of the season and along with Isak, probably our most important player to keep hold of moving forward. Yet we got in such a mess that we potentially were willing to shove him out the door to (hopefully this season) a rival in the league?

 

Really hope that doesn't mess with his head or loyalty to us in the coming season. Plus someone mentioned his contract actually ends in 2026?

I agree, it sucks but the context is crucial right? We would have only done that as the last resort, it’s not something we want to do it’s something we might have had to do. 
 

taking a points deduction is a none starter, the target for next year is champions league qualification and we can’t achieve starting on -10.

I would imagine we try get isak and Gordon on new deals after this.

Article mentioned the club are worried Gordon’s head has been turned.

No chance of top 4 if we had sold any of Isak, Gordon or Bruno aswell so it's shite either way.

 

Hopefully they have done enough to meet their deficit and we can still invest this summer because we are still a few players/positions short of mounting a challenge for top 4. We need better luck with injuries this year also.

Hearing Gordon on the overlap he seems absolutely bloody-minded in his determination to get to the top. If it doesn't look we're going to be able to get there in the near future I suspect he wouldn't hesitate if he got the chance to move to one of the very big boys.

Isak has been in talks for months, it's regularly mentioned
