With Pinnock sold, Arthur loaned, SvD injured, Ajer prone to an injury, Schuster looking like he'll need to be eased into the first team and the window closing imminently... Let's just say I can't see this happening and put it somewhere along the lines of the Forest offer for Thiago (if it's happened, it's made the big cheese giggle)
Obviously there will always be a figure we're gonna deal on but it's more than €50m and it's inflated when we're this late in a window.
Even if his agent or these clubs have turned his head about moving this window, I'm sure that 1) he'd want to say in England and 2) his next move will be a club that will realistically compete for honours (ie not Newcastle).
He'll know better than any of us, with the improvements being made to the squad, that we could very well do something special this season, which is less likely at these other two... Short term financial gain for probable sideways moves.
