I'm more interested in Lingard at this point.

Reims' president on Ektike, Doesn't seem like too big of an ask imo.

Always a bonus when you can work your Friday night mantra into a post about Newcastle transfers.

By the sounds of it, although the overall sum we’re offering for these players is decent (€35+), the lion’s share of it is tied to contingencies. So you can bet that there’s a big chunk of that tied to us staying up. Plus if there is a clause about us winning the Champions League, it’s no real surprise the selling club is telling us to get fucked.

Loan isn't happening according to The Mail - https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-10419497/Newcastle-rebuffed-Manchester-United-sign-Jesse-Lingard-loan.html

Isn't he still out with an ankle injury though?

All this build up, you watch him be utter pony if we get him.

At least we can all enjoy some transfer deadline day excitement as the big clock on SSN counts down to zero.

Compare that to Carlos who, supposedly…

I wasn’t looking forward to the Leeds game before this one, now I’m definitely not… and I thought we’d walk this (not literally like much of our team mind).

FFS!

GGGGOAL!!!!!

Make yer mind up!

Carlos supposedly has a €80m (£67m) release clause in his contract.

Last I heard on Wood was that the medical is done and dusted and they were working on personal terms. Probably get announced this morning.

Not surprising if they value him at £40m and we’ve only offered £28m.

£28mil bid gone in for Diego Carlos just mentioned on SSN’s Transfer Show. Although Sevilla value him at £40mil.

Full article, minus the bullshit ads and gratuitous photos, here,

Anyone heard of Amadou Haidara? Is he worth the £80mil we're supposedly ready to spunk on him?
