Newcastle United have made a net profit of £20.6m on deals in and out, which could actually rise to £26.85m if both Mitrovic and Armstrong hit certain targets for their new clubs. I hope Rafa tells us who his real targets were this window

This was the training ground at 5pm only Rafa was left Sad really.

Window slammed shut

Rafa said the other day he "wanted 3/4 in before the window closed.

BREAKING NEWS Swansea City defender Federico Fernandez has this lunchtime left Wales to complete a medical with Newcastle United, Sky sources understand.

The old criteria issue again Benitez was offered assurances that he could sign a centre-back and a left-back earlier this week, but he has hit a brick wall on some deals after being told the players don’t fit club criteria. They're taking the absolute piss out of the bloke now.

Swansea rejected #nufc's loan bid for Federico Fernandez earlier in the window and have now rejected a bid that has fallen "well below their valuation of the player." Rafa scuppered at every turn now

I'vs stolen this from N.O. Dubravka £4M Dummett 0 Lascelles £4M Clark £5M Yedlin £5M Kenedy £2M Diame £5.5M Shelvey £12M Ritchie £12M Perez £1M Rondon 2M The total cost our first 11 is just over £50 million Ashley has asset stripped the team in front of our faces

The only saving grace at the minute it looks like McGuire won't be going to Man Utd. So hopefully they won't be coming in for Lascelles

All eyes on Harry McGuire if he gets his move to Man Utd Leicester are set to make an offer for Lascelles

We were linked with Left back Joe Bryan earlier today it looks like Fulham have swooped in for him just as he was about to sign for Aston Villa

Just reading that but there could be a problem with him getting a work permit. This was tagged on the end of that article... Newcastle still have to get through the last day of the window without losing skipper Jamaal Lascelles. With Harry Maguire being eyed by Manchester United, Leicester have the Toon star on their wish list. Yet only an astronomical bid would see Lascelles sold.

Seems like it was nothing to do with payments he doesn't fancy the premier league yet... PSG starlet Stanley N’Soki has turned down an offer from Newcastle United, according to sources contacted by Get French Football News. It is our understanding that N’Soki has rebuffed the bid because he does not want to move to the Premier League this early in his career. Although he would like to move to the Premier League in the future, he wants to do so once he has acquired more experience and is more mature as a player. In terms of his contract situation with PSG, talks are scheduled for before the end of August, with his youth deal running for just 12 months more. Sources close to N’Soki tell Get French Football News that “nothing is yet written for the future” of the player.

Not today apparently

No

Hopes are fading that United can afford the package to bring PSG’s Stanley N’Soki with the French giants demanding payments up front.

Will Ashley have pay a fine if the players refuse to do interviews with Sky on Saturday ?

Contracts mean nothing these days plus it's Ashley we're talking about

Everything's down to Ashley, he's unscrupulous he'll be looking at ways to fuck Rafa & the fans over. This could be a swift kick in the balls to let us know who's in charge of the club. He'll be pissed off with petition in parliament. The disruption on Twitter & other social media regarding SD. He'll also be pissed off with the planned protest outside Northumberland Streets SD. He'd sell Lascelles out of sheer spite.

He may not have much say in it if Ashley gets a chance of £50 million for him plus I think Rafa would give him his blessing

That's probably more likely

I wonder if he has the balls to show his face at SJP this year

Nah mate Ashleys ruined the club
