Multiple sources now claiming that we are going to put in a formal offer for Sesko. It had previously been claimed that we'd only submit a bid if he gave use some indication that he wanted to join. Make of that what you will.

NUFC have put in an improved offer.

To be honest if we have to match the offer of €80m plus €10m in add ons then that's just too much for him at this stage. He hasn't done anything to remotely justify that fee.
Time to move on and look at other options. I know it'd be ideal to sign a striker who'll be the man for the next 5-7 years, but it's not essential. Even if we get someone who'll be good enough for the next 2-3 years and then have to readdress it a couple of years down the line that is fine.
I'd seriously consider speaking with PSG about a deal for Randall Kolo Muani, who might potentially be available on a loan with an obligation to buy next summer. Maybe then take the money we were thinking of spending this summer on a striker and see if we can sign a top class CDM like Baleba or similar. Whispers that Tchoumeni could be available, and we've been interested in him in the past.

Vivell, Wilcox, amorim might just know a bit more than us shappy.

Mateta or Watkins would be far better proposition then get some pace in midfield and central defence.

I'm bored with Sesko already, this could drag on and on. There are other options, we really don't want to get into a bidding was with Newcastle.
If the player says he wants to join us then great, but I've not heard that yet.
05 Aug 2025 14:34:53
Ajh, I think we have only put in the bid because he has said he wants us. no other explanation.
Not sure why you're bored with it. Massive upgrade.
05 Aug 2025 14:50:42
Anything is an upgrade on Rasmus and Zirkee, but I am not sure where your getting massive upgrade from, what facts is there to back that up? Sesko not exactly prolific by any means.
05 Aug 2025 14:55:45
Not sure we can say he is an upgrade yet. If he comes it will take time for him to settle.
05 Aug 2025 17:20:10
I'm bored with the constant headlines and the not knowing what is going on, i'm bored with the time it seems to take to get deals done.
I also have no idea if he will realise his potemtial, or whether we are simply swapping one with potential for another with potential.
05 Aug 2025 21:08:31
Alot of people saying he wants or favours us? Does he or was his agent just saying that to play both clubs against each other ensuring a huge financial package for his client and himself. We might have been played here, but time will tell! Whoever loses out is going to have egg on their face due to the public nature of the transfer and all the noise surrounding it.

If this happens I’d be putting Zirkzee on the transfer list right away. I just don’t see where he fits in this system.
