    Apparently the Times are reporting we have made a £7m bid.

    Newcastle United continued their search for players in France this weekend by having a closer look at Marseille star Andre Ayew. The Ghana international has already claimed interest from Barcelona this market and although the Spanish giants have not stepped up their hunt for the player, Ayew may still be able to move from the club if Newcastle are going to take their interest any further. The player has spoken out about playing in England over the past few months and there is a chance that he will be able to do that as Le 10 Sport do claim that a bid is being readied for the Marseille man. RMC have confirmed to us that Joe Kinnear was there personally to watch Ayew on Friday against Valenciennes. RMC are now reporting that Andre Ayew will meet with Marseille President Vincent Labrune at the beginning of next week to discuss his future.

    According to The Times newspaper this morning, Newcastle have now made a £7 million bid for the player.

    Another Marseille man being targeted from the Premier League this weekend is Andre-Pierre Gignac. The French striker was watched by West Brom representatives, but it does appear to be a waste of a journey from the Baggies as Gignac stated last week his desire to stay at Marseille and his love for the club. Any offer for the player now would surely be a waste of time.

    Elsewhere, Ouest France report that Cardiff City scouts watched Rennes full back Kévin Théophile Catherine, but after a complete nightmare performance two weekends ago, one doubts that he would be suitable for the Premier League for the moment.

    Quality player to be fair. Watched a fair bit of him last year when taking an interest in how Barton got on. Him and his brother Jordan looked useful. 7m....and the rest

    It's like Gomis. How is it possible to have a bid accepted then not get the fckin player if you actually want them.

    the stumbling block was an agent payment of just 800k.. such a shame we will not get Gomis on board for such a relatively small sum.
    At least we will see parachute payments when we go down.

    They're just putting **** bids in that they know will be rejected.

    I hope Joe Kinnear and Mike Ashley die.

    Apparently another club is in for Bale.
    It will be a pissed up Kinnear sticking a 10m bid in for a laugh.

    You never know, Joe might have had a special relationship with Bale with his Spurs connection.

    Yes, we'll all pick a piece of paper out of a hat and the one that picks the piece with the X on it gets to do the job.
