Craig 6701 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 There's so much of it around, we might as well still it all in one thread. Here's a starter for 10. United's £25 million transfer plans Newcastle United owner Mike Ashley has released an amount in excess of £10 million to Kinnear for transfers, and it is widely known that Shay Given's proposed move to Manchester City will earn the Tyneside club something in the region of £10 million. Together that makes a reasonable war-chest of £20 million, with another £6 million expected to arrive from the sale of Charles 'Le Sulk' N'Zogbia to Aston Villa. So, far, the Magpies have only signed Danish International Peter Løvenkrands on a free-transfer, and Frenchman Albin Ebondo on loan from Toulouse. With less than a week remaining in the January transfer window, and with money to spend, Joe Kinnear is likely to go back to French outfit Rennes and make an improved offer of £8 million for Cameroon midfielder Stephane M'Bia. It has also emerged that the Toon put in a serious bid of £4 million last night for 25-year-old midfield ace Marco Donadel from Serie A side Fiorentina. Jose Enrique is also set to be sacrificed to make way for Celtic captain Stephen McManus, who is expected to join the Magpies next week in a swap deal. Celtic want an extra £4 million from Newcastle, but the cash-plus-player offer could be reduced to Enrique and £2 million. That makes £14 million, with the Magpies still chasing Norwegian left-back John-Arne Riise from Catalan side Roma. That deal could also be a short-term loan. Therefore, it remains to be seen what Kinnear does in fact, with that extra £12 million, and even if N'Zogbia's coveted transfer to Aston Villa does not materialise, that still leaves Kinnear with £6 million. A hectic week awaits the Magpies it appears. Source: http://www.newcastle.vitalfootball.co.uk/a...le.asp?a=140948 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom 14021 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Robbie Keane's sensational move to Newcastle doesn't look like happening. I also don't expect our Argentinian and Italian loanees to be showing up any time soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But remember Craig, hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies. Edited January 27, 2009 by Happy Face Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
