    Kevin Mbabu looks set to be leaving Newcastle. He's confirmed he's set to sign a 3-year-deal with BSC Young Boys. (Via @KHeneage) #NUFCpic.twitter.com/X2ALR6KJis

    Have to admit to being a tad disappointed if this is true.
    I really thought he was one for the future, especially after his successful loan.
    Is he better than Dummy, l would think so.
    Not sure l get the logic behind letting him leave.

    I thought he looked like he could be pretty decent. I'm sure Rafa has had a good look at him mind.

    No he's not better than Dummett. He's not even a LB to be fair.

    Bit of a shame this one. I had high hopes for this lad. Still - I'm willing to trust that Rafa knows what he is doing.

    It could just be a case of him no longer wanting to wait around, bandied around on loan. Or maybe Rafa doesn't rate him. Always a shame as we want young lads to make it here but it can't always work out. I have a feeling we may see him on these isles again in the future.

    Haven't seen him play much, just remember him being smashed to pieces when we lost 6-1 to Man City.

    No big loss, if the Swiss league is his target he clearly hasn't got much ambition.
