They haven’t received a transfer fee for a player since they sold Perez to Leicester in July 2019.

Since then they’ve spent £230m on players. Up to £270m if botman deal goes through.

16 of their 31 first team players are over 30.

Only 5 are under 25, including the longstaff brothers.

Joselu, Aarons, Yedlin, Lejeune and Woodman are the only ones who've left for a fee since Perez.
I'd be surprised if those sales came to more than £10m like

If he was any good he would have been courted by City or Liverpool. Not a sniff. No one else wants who they are signing.

No idea how good he is. That said if he was top class, or possibly English, he would be courted by City and Liverpool.
Newcastle aren't shopping in the same player pool as the likes of City, Liverpool or Chelsea.
As an poster said earlier it really is a shame when a team like AC Milan, offering Champions League football and a glorious heritage, lose out to simple cash.

I've seen him a few times when playing for Lille, BET365 sometimes stream the French League on a Sunday night so it's something to watch.

He's colossal and good in the air but not great on the deck and not particulaly quick, He would definitley be more suited to Serie A than English footy.

Potential to be very good, also the potential to be a bit of a calamity if they are wanting to play out from the back and press high up the pitch.

Suspect then he's a Lascelles replacement (but doesn't sound much better tbh...). 3 at back maybe with Burn & Schar (both prob better players) & then Targett & Trippier wing backs.
40M there's better about than that like. 4x Dan Burn price?? Been done over.

Got to be more to it than that. You're not going to turn down Milan surely even if wedge better at Nufc. Unless wage offer is f***ing silly.

They needed to show they can get their main target, as he has been since January so have likely offered silly money. They're doing the same in Golf. If he doesn't sign it'll be embarrassing for them & possible knock back their Sportswashing. They had their eyes taken out & I still say if he was such a good player City or Liverpool would have signed him by now. Shame on him for accepting Blood money.

It could also be the case they've threatened to murder his family & Chop his head off if he doesn't sign. As they do....

I hate to say it again but people who think the Mags are skimping or pissing about are absolutely deluding themselves.
The truth is it’s horrific and it’s going to get worse. Best we can do is try and get back in the top flight and at least show them up for the scum they are. They’ll be challenging in a couple of year. And will spend more this summer

Milan not willing to meet the fee.
Agent being an agent (kernt).
Newcastle offering crazy wages.

One , all or a combination of the above?

Lets be honest here. Unless the player was born in Scotswood, and even then it would be a toss-up, there is nobody of sane mind selecting Newcastle over AC Milan.

He’s embarrassing
Imagine spending £40million on a player who can’t get a game ahead of Nathan Ake who doesn’t even get a game at club level

I've not seen him play, but the fact he's played less than 100 senior league games and only turned 22 in January mighr be one of the reasons he's not made his debut for the Dutch senior team. Not often you get relatively inexperienced centre halves playing for national teams
 
Wonder what this lad thinks of Botman signing?

Ashley wouldn’t have bought them unless he sold one of the CBs, Wilson, Lewis, and Dubravka. At least you’re right on the windows part if the above happened

Why those 2? Potter’s already at a good and steadily growing club (which Newcastle aims to be in 1-2 years). Conte is (deservedly so) hungry for trophies. Both of them are not suitable for this phase of Newcastle’s project
