trooper 420 Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We spend a load of time looking at players who don't fancy or we know we can't afford so they can talk a load of shit about trying. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
acrossthepond 214 Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 I don't even think we've really bothered with that this time. Rondon is clearly all we're getting, we'll have a "leak" sometime late today about some ludicrous foreign-based player, that'll do for a bit of drama and hope tomorrow before we announce we're "done with business" with a few hours left in the window. The latest performance of the NUFC transfer bullshit concerto. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Howay 2,177 Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 I think it’s somewhat standard nowadays to contact the players agent to get a sense of how receptive they would be to a move, clearly we don’t bother with that as this is the perfect result for them. The player was just being nice imo, I don’t imagine he will play much at PSG so coming to a club like us would be better for his development as he’d get more game time. So I think it’s just he doesn’t want to come to Newcastle as honestly we seem like a basket case of a club. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
adios 686 Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 So...we all taking the day off tomorrow for what's surely the most exciting day of the year for Newcastle fans? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ayatollah Hermione 3,723 Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 Taking the day off to watch a load of shit rumours get floated about by Sky so they can make money off bets is pure nonce behaviour, I'm afraid. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Isegrim 1,806 Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 So we are making (or faking) desperate and unsuccessful attempts to buy players in the last couple of days of the transfer window as we did in recent years. Looks like a Patzer to me. Planning. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kitman 560 Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 I’ll be very surprised if we get anyone else in. Benitez says he needs 3 or 4 players in, we go through the motions on deadline day, lots of rumours circulate and nothing happens. We’ve seen it all before. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The Fish 766 Posted August 9, 2018 Report Share Posted August 9, 2018 Funny feeling we'll get an underwhelming defender in on loan (or <£5m), but that's it. That we're set to make a profit in this window (after finishing 10th and without selling some young star for megabucks) is a fucking joke. £60m could have significantly strengthened this honest but limited squad. We said we needed a centre back, a left back, a central midfielder, a #10 and a striker. We've signed a centreback, a central midfielder, and two strikers. But are any of them exciting? are any of them evidence of a club with ambitions beyond mere survival? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
