De Jong seems to be the hot topic at the moment and most of the attention is focussed on the 21-year-old Netherlands striker. However as yet no deal has been agreed for the striker although rumours persist over the presence of bids from United.
Interest in De Jong is thought to be high and Newcastle will face competition for the signature of the highly-rated young striker. A full Netherlands international with an impressive scoring record in the Eredivisie, de Jong looks set for great things although it looks increasingly likely he will have to move away from FC Twente if he is to achieve them.
“I can only confirm that there has been interest from Newcastle in Luuk,” de Jong’s agent Louis Laros told the Journal.
“I know that Newcastle are following him, that is no secret, but a club must first agree a fee with FC Twente and so far this has not happened. I really don’t know what will happen next. It is not up to us at this moment, it is up to those clubs to show an interest and agree a financial deal with Twente.”
“They are not the only club that has shown an interest, there has been a lot of clubs from all over Europe. More than five or six – but that is normal for a player who has scored 25 goals in the Eredivisie and is in the national side.”
Laros is keen on making sure his client moves to the right club for the right reasons and insists that other clubs have been rebuffed in their approach for the striker already. However, perhaps tellingly, he also adds that Newcastle are one option that haven’t been turned away, yet.
“It has got to be the right club for Luuk, and a club that Luuk likes. He has already rejected several clubs who are interested because they are not the right move. I can confirm that Newcastle are not one of the clubs that he has rejected,” said Laros.
“He would be the perfect fit for the Premier League. He is only young and there is no doubt about his quality – no-one is debating that. Now the most important thing is to find the right club for Luuk, which is what we will do.”
I get the feeling that this one is just going to drag on before we see a resolution to it, although the good news is that the player himself is seemingly keen on a move to St James’ Park.
What do you think?
Jay you must have the hots for Kenia you fuking chutney ferret 😆

Always thinking of man love you are you fucking muck bucket ******* merchant, did Cabaye just get a yellow for getting his ankle stamped on?
jay jay(Quote)
Jay yeah he did he is starting to collect them rightly 😀
Big Dave(Quote)
How’s the big city then dave?
jay jay(Quote)
Fuk Carra really fuking pisses me off he’s such a bin dipping ****** that even makes andy gray sound like an entertaining guy. Even Keane cant stop laughing at him.
Jay I suppose your gutted that the republic got well and truely spanked 😆 😆
Big Dave(Quote)
Jay alls quiet in the city, did you know big Alan Mcdonald from Rathcoole played for Norn Iron ❓ he died earlier only 48
Big Dave(Quote)
Not really mate, I always supported England in football and Ireland in rugby, would have liked them to do well but not overly fussed.
jay jay(Quote)
yeah big dave, was gutted to here that, decent player and a decent fella from what I hear 🙁
jay jay(Quote)
Well Debuchys had a mare first half ,I can see that price going down by the minute
.
kimtoon(Quote)
Jay he was a decent fella always dandered about the estate talking to people when he was over, and used to supply the local kids footie team with stuff.
I would like to see Benny get brought on to play alongside Cabaye, as at the min the frenchies don’t look like doing owt.
Big Dave(Quote)
Dave – I once knew an Alan Rathcoole who worked in McDonalds … It’s not the same lad is it?! 😕

I was never welcome on the parades mates, think it was the armalite I used to carry about with me 😆

Hate to judge debuchy playing out of position against the best team in the world but i will ……anythin over 5m and Lille can go and fk themselves
MDS(Quote)
Mds ; – I really hope we do not go back in for him !
sidekick(Quote)
If Carr see’s something in him and Pardew backs the decision, that’s good enough for me, if we judged Cisse on the ACON then he’d be ***** too
jay jay(Quote)
Not at the money Lille want
MDS(Quote)
MDS there is a lot of other top players at the Euros that if you were to judge them just on the Euros you wouldn’t be interested in taking them. I think international games are an odd thing some good players play well some just seem as if they’re not suited.
Big Dave(Quote)
MDS – Ok, judge him in his favoured position against Sweden and I’d still tell Lille to go **** themselves if they want more than £5m. He’s good going forward but defensively I’ve not seen a great deal to get overly excited about like.
Infact there haven’t been any stand out right backs in tournament that I’ve seen.
Sharpy17(Quote)
Somehow think our interest may cool off now .
kimtoon(Quote)
Sharpy 🙂
I hear ya dave. Just a bit frustrated at France….and a little drunk
MDS(Quote)
bloody doom mongerers, I remamber when there was a morale officer who would sort you lot out 🙂
jay jay(Quote)
France needed a spark something different but they failed to use Ben Arfa.
Groucho(Quote)
Lads I guess then what some are saying means that we fuked up by giving Carr a long term contract, because he must see something in him and lets face it I think Carr would know a lot more than any of us 😉 or maybe he has just been lucky so far 😆
Big Dave(Quote)
Good pen by Alonso 😎
kimtoon(Quote)
MDS thats the thing but France have been **** over the last 2 games but it seems Debuchy is the fall guy
Big Dave(Quote)
In Carr I trust anyway
jay jay(Quote)
Dave clearly the club rates him at a certain fee, but we’ll see how much that fee is. its one tournament but he doesn’t look to be a 10m player for example
MDS(Quote)
Dave ,you got your tetchy head on tonight 😉 To be fair I think a lot of us our panicking that he might not be strong enough for the prem and it’s an awful lot of cash to waste at the fee they are asking .As you say Carr don’t often get it wrong though lets hope that’s the case should we sign him 😀
kimtoon(Quote)
oi you lot, don’t pick on dave, he’s too much of a chutney ferret to take care of himself 😆
jay jay(Quote)
I think debuchys getting **** from because he’s being touted as our new rob. The french usually blame Ribery
MDS(Quote)
MDS ,they was all bad tonight ,they just didn’t turn up for what ever reason .France are not as bad as they played tonight ,it wasn’t fear it was apathy from the players imo.
kimtoon(Quote)
New right back I meant
MDS(Quote)
ribery now theres a player imo 😉
icedog(Quote)
Jay you would know a lot about that 😉 I hear you were cuddling up to the ladyboy lover on the darkside 😀 you fuking gimp.
No Kim i’m cool pet I just feel as if the Lad is getting the blame for frances **** performance, they were all *****. As for if I think he’s good enough TBH I dont really know as apart from the Euros I havn’t seen him play, but I can’t see Carr and Co wasting time on someone that wouldn’t suit us 😉
As the Gimp above says in Carr we trust 😀
Big Dave(Quote)
reminds me of me-sel when was a boy 😀 😀 😀
icedog(Quote)
you lost me there dave??? Icedog I was a player in the Ginola mould, right footed left winger, fast, skillful, lovely hair and smoked 20 a day 🙂
jay jay(Quote)
Dave – not questioning Carrs scouting ability – questioning Lilles valuation of the player
Sharpy17(Quote)
MDS if you watched Messi or Kaka in the last WC you would think they were only worth £1 mill 😀
Big Dave(Quote)
Ice could you not pick someone that doesn’t look like they work in a ghost train.
I hope and pray that Jamie Carra dosn’t become a pundit as he would put me off watching
Big Dave(Quote)
JAY JAY 20 a day,you wuss two packs noo,was the women that got me oot of breath not fags 😀

Big Dave(Quote)

Army comes on from time to time

Big Dave(Quote)
I have a theory regarding Debuchy 😎 , he is purposefully being **** at defending so that Lille will lower the price and other clubs will become less interested, forcing Lille to sell him to us, reuniting him with Yohan
