While that is accurate, very accurate. We surely got a pretty chunk of change for CL qualification, no? With better sponsorship deals on top? Strange the club achieves CL qualification and pushes the break.
Flog him but they'll replace with two boring squad fillers.. the prices are insane and only the big clubs can cough up..... so they take the lot then it's whether they missed one or two.
We did this last year then signed Isak out of nowhere for 70 mil odd, we are just messing with the little 6.
They also probably spent way more or closer to the limit already since they took over I'd guess. This club was worthless remember.
Yeah, I called that out yesterday. We were banging on about prices and we can't match this player, or this player, blah blah. Then Isak came in for £65m Btw, Isak for £65m was a MASSIVE risk. He was bang average the previous season at Real Sociedad.
I think newcastle have to wait until the big clubs have finished and then see who they didn't go for... like isak and Bruno for example.
Bruno was on the verge of signing for Arsenal. We swooped in like a raven and stole their pretty gem. I think the Isak transfer took a lot out of us and we are trying to reign it in Another aspect people aren't considering is, if our players have any kind of decent agent, they are all on European qualification wage % increases. So a bunch of them just got an automatic payrise.
We need straight into the side centre mid, left back and winger. Centre back around Schar's level to compete/rotate and probably a young striker to act as 3rd choice emergency. We will be looking good then.
Left back and winger can be done for within the 75m (if its true.) Harvey Barnes can go to the left and wouldn't cost more than MacAllister, so 30m? Left back? I mean, we have Burn, we have Targett (he's one of the highest earners at the club) so a third who can take Burns spot and be inter changeable with Targett. We are obviously looking elsewhere in Europe, not just the prem. So a few will come in from Europe. Just no italian clubs please. Koulibally is ****ing **** at Chelsea and we were on the verge of signing him.
Borna Sosa is being linked and we have scouted him a few times over the past year apparently. It's suggested he'd cost around £20million. Barnes for £30m, Sosa for £20m. Leaves us £25m or so for CM. That's the price we've been looking at Alcaraz for... Though if we did sign Barnes, then I'd expect Saint maximin to go, meaning we have around £50m to spend, at which point we could try for Szoboszlai or Maddison.
