Joselu is available for transfer this summer after two years at the club where he didn’t impress too much and since Salomon Rondon came in then he hasn’t seen much first-team action.
Deportivo Alavesare after the Newcastle United striker Joselu who has talked to Radio Marca and it’s clear he wants to leave Newcastle to get first-team action elsewhere.
Joselu – my move depends on new board
This is what Joselu has said to Radio Marca in Madrid:
“I have one year left at Newcastle, I have possibilities to move but it will depend on the new board that will come to the club”,
“The market in the Premier League ends on August 8, so I am attentive to the movements that may occur with me.”
Nothing too unusual there other than what’s this about a new Board at Newcastle?
If Newcastle are acquired by Sheikh Khaled, he will bring his own people in to run the club.
And that will include a new Chief Executive – the role that Lee Charnley had been trying to fill at Newcastle since April 2014.
Joselu’s comment is intriguing if nothing else.
Comments welcome.

Comment #41EGB – so would Ashley. He’d hardly have to spend anything he couldn’t fiddle as tax write offs.

Comment #42It has been quite an endeavor trying to catch up on the blog. Cannot really add anything that others have not already raised.
I noticed Bale’s name proposed more than once; that is, should the club come into riches. For me, I wouldn’t want Bale even if the money was there to bring him in. His wages are something like 500k a week, then it would be a large transfer fee. As good a player as Bale is on his day, his injury problems etc mean he just isn’t worth what he would cost.

Comment #43The players were talking about who they thought who the toughest player they played against last season and Hazard appeared to be the popular choice.
We should nick him from under the noses of RM/Barca.

Ashley as owner of The Heed, that would qualify as sleep stealer as big as NY Mag’s mention of Ashley’s hidden chopper.
I think you should take yourself off immediately to the local church and ask for forgiveness!! 🙂

That would depend on the pockets of our POTENTIAL (emphasis deliberate) buyers,Bale would be an asset even if he only played around 60% of our games.

Comment #56EGB, personally I would prefer Alexis Sanchez to Bale, I think he has more mileage in him, and would come cheaper: not by much though.

Comment #64Ancient to be perfectly honest I think we could probably get better than either and if there is money to burn (or even extra cash) then I’m certain that Rafa has them noted in his little black book.

Comment #65Online has tsunki been talking more pants about me? Not sure I can bé arsed looking because it won’t make a lot of sense. His tag team member Jail will probably rehash some lie that I wanted Martin O’Neill or derided rafa for having small hands. The only reason I commented on the size of rafa’s hands, and his glove, was to show that I met the man. 🙂

Comment #74I’ve been a avid reader of this blog for a number of years. The last few days have been interesting and i’ve enjoyed reading everyone’s comments both cynical and optimistic. I have appreciated Dubai Mickey’s explanations of the Middle East customs and I hope he is correct in his prediction of a new owner taking control of our beloved Toon (soon). I’m still 50/50 and on the fence if the takeover will happen. However, I have everything crossed and for the good of our club please be true!!!

Comment #77I’m not expecting any news for a bit , weeks even – possibly even Ashley saying they never had the money.
I’m hoping to whatever god that it’s true
Too many journos / itk’s spouting crap which is to be expected , guess we just need to sit tight and wait – there is absolutely no chance the players have inside knowledge

Jonjo was saying on his interview that the players were in constant communication via whatsapp and other media, I don’t use any of these but is there someone on the blog who can read their messages, could be some big hints in them.

Comment #80EGB, sorry mate, no, I’m a skinflint so sent them by ship. Well I say ship, it’s actually a sailing dhow heading to Dar Es Salaam, then via camel train to Morocco and I’ve heard there’s a few inflatables that go across the straits of Gibraltar into Spain and the travellers will take them to Calais. It’s touch and go whether they’ll get to the UK but hey, it’s so much cheaper than flying them – and if they don’t get there they’ll be reused as tent and sleeping bag material on the streets of Paris and Calais. What’s not to like?
