Hi Eds,
Which clubs are interested in Yanga M'Biwa? He would be perfect for Newcastle and he's not in the French Euros squad so his price won't rocket, definitely would be my no.1 choice but idk whether we'd be able to get him if other clubs are interested.
Great site btw, the best transfer rumours site by a country mile :) {Ed022's Note - I'm not entirely sure at the moment, but I will try and find out for you mate.}

Thanks :):)

I read that Napoli had bid for him but its likely to be bs.

Its agent said Dortmund are the front runners at the moment, and his agent also stated he will probably play in Germany

Gael Bigirimana to sign for 500K from Coventry.

Another talent be added to Newcastles youth system.

Think it's a shame for him to be stuck in our development squad. especially when he's leaving first team foootball.

Agree after playing a lot of games in the Championship it'll be a shame to see him in the reserves however we might send him back out on loan if we do sign him.

He will b on the bench a good back up. We wont pay 0.5/1 mil for a reserve player to sit in te youth set up. We can scout good youth but to buy good youth is a sign he is well thought of. Proves himself in the 4th most popular league!

Agree with the 2 posts above, i say sign him up(looks a good prospect) and loan him out to a championship team straight away.

Adam Johnson, Debuchy and Luuk De jong all WONT sign for newcastle, graham carr will find an undiscovered genious. Heard it hear first

Cabaye was one of the french players of the season when we signed him... not everyone we sign is undiscovered

Ba to leave in next 7 days to Chelsea and Newcastle to bring in Adam Johnson, Debuchy and Luuk De jong

No chance of Johnson coming here, his wages would be around 2 and a half times what our average first team player gets, Debuchy possibly, de Jong doubt it and probs not good enough anyway

I would be happy to see Ba go, I have never seen a player give the ball away so much in my life as Ba in the 2nd half of the season, 6 month wonder who will only get worse with his slow long limbed style of play (We have ameobi for that if we must) Bring in de jong or Bas Dost and we will be much better off. As for those talking about Adam Johnsons wages you may be surprised, Yes Man City pay big wages to senior players to lure them but Adam Johnson is a squad player and is likely on around 40 to 50 grand a week Maximum which is less than the club were willing to pay Enrique for him to stay. He supports Newcastle so watch this space.

I don't see Ba leaving to be honest. I still think clubs will see him as a risk and why would he want to go to Chelsea and warm their bench? They're hardly going to offer him silly money as well and I hear he's on 50k a week with us and he doesn't strike me as a mercenary.. I guess we'll see but honestly I'd like to see him stay.

How is de jong not good enough? make sure your opinions are good enough before you post

I think Ba‘s agent is the problem getting release clauses in his contracts and making sure he gets a big sum of it.

Ba is said to be on 30K plus 20K in bonuses at the mo.. Adam Johnson is on around 90K

Extract from northern echo may 19th

Sunderland have been extensively linked with Johnson, a boyhood supporter of the club, in the past.

they tried to sign the Teessider in 2010, but were unable to compete with City's financial clout, and made another unsuccessful attempt to land him on loan last summer.

That may well be the case, except Johnson has repeatedly said he supports Newcastle, despite growing up in a Mackem-supporting family. Given the choice of clubs he'd come to Newcastle first any day (as would any right-thinking player to be honest).

Your research is partly wrong .Whilst Sunderland are interested in him he is not a Sunderland fan ,his family are ,not him .He is a Toon fan and Ginola was his idol growing up.

Everyone knows adam johnson is a newcastle fan

As you say he was a fan of Ginola and the good attacking players Newcastle had in that era so he supported newcastle because of them but not really the club deep down in his heart i know this for a fact went to school with him,also he done it to be different thats the character he is,his mates support sunderland his family support sunderland he just wanted to piss people off i use to know him personally he is a bit of a tit to be honest.

I remember him liking man utd for a bit too so i dont think he supports either safc or nufc but i would say now he probably prefers safc.

scored against nufc cheered like mad,scored against safc and didnt celebrate what does that tell you?

Marvin Martin has expressed his desire to leave Sochaux(BBC Sport). He would definitely complete the midfield and could be used as an attacker.

Would be an interesting addition for sure but I want to see some defenders in the door befor another MF player.

He is joining Lille to replace hazard.....
