Is having a medical as we speak according to nufcfans on twitter. This is the most reliable account on twitter when they claim things like this. Very excited with this signing as long as it is pulled off!
It was mentioned last night that he was in transit to Newcastle so fingers crossed that he signs as he's a very bright prospect as well as covering LB and RB positions.
I really hope we can sign Pieters or Cissokho as well. If we got a defense of Santon, Saylor, Coloccini and one of them we would have a great back line!
If this goes through by the end of today, with at least one player following tomorrow (from the sounds of it we're in for at least two more!), that will be good. Tallies with reports yesterday that had him fly out here for a medical while his agent negotiated in London.
According to the press; we've dropped our interest in Pieters as PSV cannot get his replacement so Pieters has said he'll stay for another season.
Just so everyone understands... WE ARE SIGNING SANTON AS OUR #1 LEFT BACK. - Not knocking the dreamers, just helping keep your head out of the clouds.
i was thinking just that. he would be able to put pics on twitter till he has sold footage to braodcasters etc...
Good job we have played Fulham... Imagine if they asked Senderos what he thought about Santon.. Senderos: "Well he is a good player, he likes to pull you off to the left, I did not enjoy this especially as Joey Barton decided to come in my face after I protested to the referee"
For once, I wish we'd take a leaf out of Liverpool's book. And post annoying pictures of players grinning to the camera while have their medical.
