Yorkie Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Allardyce’s initial target was Edmilson, the versatile Brazil player, and having received encouragement from the World Cup winner, a Newcastle delegation will resume talks with Barcelona today. Complications include the knee injury that will enforce the 30-year-old’s absence for up to six months, his £80,000-a-week wage and Barcelona’s demand for a fee of €5 million (£3.3 million). Madness. Move on, Sam. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Will be delighted if we can get Geremi and Beye in over the next couple of days. Beye, Geremi, Solano, Milner, Dyer... solid Right side. Just need a couple to add to the Left Side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggio Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Our summer wouldn't be complete if we didn't purchase our usual Chelsea reject, lets hope he's got a bit more about him than the previous wankers we've signed off them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Good deal! A shame we didn't get him for free but still a great deal. I'm starting to like the look of this Newcastle squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Logic Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Perhaps the 2m is a goodwill gesture at getting first shout at another player. Still need a left back. Don't think anyone knows exactly when Geremi's contract expires though. (Wed, 16th Jul, 2003) BBC reports Geremi signs a 5 year deal, that would take him to July 2008. If correct he still had a year on his contract. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DavB93 Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Would take him for 2 millions, isn't Beye suppose to be making his decision today also. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Free would have obviously been better but £2m is a good price. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsunami Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Been away, surely we can't be paying a 2M transfer fee for someone whose contract is almost up? I'd suggest that the 2M was his salary package; but it is too low. Take it back; just seen a suggestion that Barca want over 3M for Edmilson whose contract is also just about up & who is out for up to 6 months! And it seems Sam is keen. :frantic: If we agree to that Barca should thrown in Godjohnsen for a nominal fee as Edmilson is madness. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
