Mohamed Diame has been pictured at St James Park, according to the Daily Star.
The Hull City midfielder underwent a medical yesterday and Twitter was delighted with the snap from a fan’s mum informing the world of his arrival.
Now, another tweet has been sent with a photo of Diame at St James Park:
I wonder who signing number 8 will be? #modiame #nufc #almostofficial pic.twitter.com/z7Uc549kfh

With Ciaran Clark confirming his move from Aston Villa this morning, it’s busy times for the club. Two more signings on top of Clark and Diame are expected before Friday’s match at Fulham.
The St James Park conveyor belt is working overtime if those reports are true.
Diame’s fee is expected to be half of Clark’s £5m but pushes this summer’s spending to the £50m mark. When Moussa Sissoko leaves, the net spend might be zero with £25m already banked for Georginio Wijnaldum.
If Rafa manages promotion on a budget of £0, a few glasses of bubbly might be sunk in the boardroom.
