Alan Pardew has explained to Newcastle fans today with an interview in the Evening Chronicle, just how the club does its transfer business, and thereâs also news that Newcastle have expanded their scouting area to include places like Romania and Serbia, as well as France, Holland and Belgium.
And of course graham Carr heads up Newcastleâs ever-growing scouting network, and Pardew explained how he works with Graham, whom he rarely sees because heâs always on the road checking out players.
âI like Graham, I hardly ever see him. Youâd be surprised how much I talk to him!â âWhat happens is Graham goes out and gets a list of, say, eight players. Right now we are in the middle of the next window.â
âThe process, so our fans are clear on it, is this: We have about seven names for a center-half. Heâll give me what he thinks are his best two options. Then it comes down to football secretary Lee Charnley. He will contact the clubs.
âSometimes somebody linked to the club might be an agent who works with the club. They will say what the value of the player might be.â âIt is always a âpossiblyâ because you are never able to negotiate what the actual figure will be.â
âWe had that problem with Debuchy. The figure that was told to us was way off the figure the club wanted.â âWe thought that something was out of keel and thatâs why we felt bad about the deal.â âThen there are the personal terms of what the player could âpossibly haveâ.â
âThe top two of Grahamâs choices may have gone. We might be down to one of Grahamâs and three others.â âThen it will come into my lap. Then I really take a vested interest in how many times Graham has watched these guys and the clubs theyâve been at. Iâll talk to my backroom team.â
âGraham isnât doing that all by himself â he has his own foot soldiers to get those seven names.â âBy that process weâre down to say two and Iâll see Derek Llambias and say, âThis is what we think theyâll cost and how much they want, weâve watched them 10 times, Iâve analysed it and Iâm happyâ.â
âThatâs what happened with Cabaye. Then it is a case of âCan we get them?â Then we see if Mike Ashley and Derek can do the deal. Ultimately Mike has to say to Derek, yes or no. Derek manages the budget.â
This is good information from Alan and it really seems that Newcastle have the transfer procedure under good control and itâs well worked out.
It seems if a layer comes into the cub he has been vetted multiple ways and hopefully can become a success wat the club.
We didnât get enough players in the summer but Gael Bigirimana and Vurnon Anita look to have been two great buys for the club.
