Debuchy wants to come to Newcastle – Cabaye

Cabaye and Debuchy: Reunited at United?
Yohan Cabaye has revealed that his close friend Mathieu Debuchy wants to join Newcastle United.

Speaking to The Journal, Cabaye says that he spoke to his fellow France international two days ago and he confirmed that he wants to leave Lille and join Newcastle.

Of course this is nothing new as we’ve heard it before, but it seems strange to have players talking about transfer targets at Newcastle United these days. Cabaye has been chatting to Debuchy for a long time regarding Newcastle and it would appear that his words have rubbed off on the 26-year-old who now sees his future away from the club he’s been at for the best part of two decades.

“Mathieu has made a very difficult decision to leave Lille but he has made the decision,” Cabaye told The Journal. Now I hope Newcastle push for Mathieu and I want them to do the deal,” he added.

“I spoke with him two days ago and he told me he wants to come. I hope Derek and Mike Ashley will do the business.”

He wants to play for Newcastle and I hope he comes to Newcastle because, of course, he’s my friend, but he’d also be a very good player for Newcastle.”

I’m not sure, but maybe this fits in with what Alan Pardew said yesterday about hoping to have a new player in by next Sunday? To jog your memory, here is what the silver fox had to say about that.

“I think the situation is that by the end of the week – by next Sunday – I think we will have another player in. I’m hoping we will have two players in,” Pardew told the Sunday Sun.

Then when you add in the fact that Lille have signed another right-back, which was something they were looking to do before letting Debuchy leave the club, plus the quotes attributed to Debuchy from here, you have to start thinking that maybe a deal for Debuchy is finally within reach.

We’ll see, but it certainly seems as though the lad is keen to move to Newcastle.

  1. The “another player in” by Sunday will be Curtis Good.

    The “hopeful we will have two” is Debuchy.

    Not hard to work that out… So basically the story tells us nothing other that he hopes Debuchy will sign within the next two weeks.

    Earth shattering news 🙄

    Just wondering how many golds Great Britain has in the Olympics? South Africa has its first and a world record 😆

    Nice to see Becky get Bronze in the pool and Liz get Silver in the road race. 😎 😀 Might get a gold today with Louis in the Gymnastics 😉 Then there is the diving ofcourse .I don’t think we do too bad for a small Island albeit with a big population.

  4. Pup @4 ,I know what you mean about the attitude but I’m prepared to cut him a little slack as he’s given them years of service and just wants to further his career.I don’t think they should really stand in his way as I wouldn’t expect us to if he had the chance to move to say Barca from us.

  6. @ Ice Pup

    HBA did the same exact thing to come here. It is a reality of football whether we like it or not so lets just be happy that we are the ones that could benefit from this.

  8. Ice ,yeah I know what you mean. 😉 But ambition and money are kings now it would seem , loyalty is the poor relation now. 🙁

    😆 I’m sat here being very entertained by my mental cat franticly chasing a big old fly round the room , She just lept a good 5ft in the air for it 😯 Don’t fancy my ornaments lasting too long at the moment 🙄 .

  9. Blimey ,Bale is mighty pissed at Adam .Just seen what he’s saying about him on SSN.”He’s come for me twice and got me twice”. “I’ve had no apology and don’t want one ,but that’s the type of person he is” 😯 No drinks in the bar after for them two then.

  10. Kim – I don’t get all the fuss myself. Was it really that bad a tackle?! Just looked like he mistimed it and trod on his foot a bit. I was expecting it to be like De Jong vs HBA the way they’re going on about it!

    On topic, his attitude does seem a bit questionable, but nothing new there. In fairness to him he has been at Lille a long time, and you can’t blame him for wanting to test himself on a bigger stage. Hopefully him and Cabaye being here together will give us the upper hand if ever a bid comes in for one of them.

    What “ornaments” would those be hanging at five feet then Kim and why are there flies buzzing around them? 😉 😆

  12. Pretty harsh call on Debuchy, Ice Pup. His whole career has been played at Lille. He hasn’t been disrespectful or talked himself up. No way you can compare him to N’zog, who perpetualy linked himself with moves to ‘big’ clubs. He has requested a move and wants to test himself in the PL. Can’t blame him for that!! 🙂

  13. Hopefully he signs this week as we are running out of time and giving the players less time to settle in . I hope the 2nd one he’s talking about is a 1st teamer and not Good or any other kid with potential.

  14. aussie M fan

    u cant tell me he’s been quiet in the press…. DEMANDING to move

    unproffesional in my opinion a top player im not saying he’s not his whole career hes 26 not 30
    1992–1993 Frétin
    1993–2003 Lille
