Phew I am very glad it's looking like a loan rather than permanent! Although Newcastle are clearly a direct rival and I'd rather he went to a mid table side...this could do wonders for him (and us) long term.

It's a loan with obligation, he is gone.

Urgh that absolutely sucks then - he's going to be a bloody star. It surely had to be Cucurella who left 😒

Remember very early on after we sold Livramento he performed really well for the Saints and we were a bit annoyed. Same thing with Lamptey when he had those explosive first months at Brighton and there were small portions of our fanbase questioning if we made a mistake selling him because he may be better than Reece. And then that feeling faded completely and we don’t really think much about either of those players anymore.

It’ll likely be the same thing with Lewis Hall. He’ll be a very solid player at Newcastle but we are stacked in both of the positions he plays in. We knew with all this spending that some tough decisions were looming. Expect a couple more before September 1.

I read that it was loan with an obligation to buy for £28 M

Lewis Hall to Newcastle, here we go! Loan deal with mandatory buy option clause — medical booked later today 🚨⚫️⚪️ #NUFC

Total package worth £35m add-ons included. “This is gonna be our final signing”, Howe announced.

Hall leaves after signing new deal at #CFC few days ago.

Least he signed a new deal to get more money off him unlike that git Mount.

Chelseayouth twitter already is having a meltdown about this. I know Hall is young but I don't think he is anything special, will be good player nothing more.

The academy is pretty good at developing full backs we've had plenty breakthrough in the last few years I'm sure another one will come up the ranks pretty soon.

It's pretty clear bar chilwel and Reece Silva from main 11 the club is getting rid of pretty much every one from the Roman era and starting fresh.

Some people just have to be negative about the club's decisions and want us to magically have our cake and eat it too, how TF we going to spend £1bn and not make sales we would ideally rather not? Even if FFP didn't exist, a club is a business and you need income to run a business.

£28m+£7m in add ons apparently, loan with obligation to buy in order to count this in next year's sales. We will need another £100m of pure profit on top of that in player sales next year as well I think, at minimum.

[TheHulk 2,507]

Now please I beg you don't go for Brennen.

Our team sheet is gonna look like a spanish lottery with aĺl these shitty numbers our best talent keeps taking.with Caicedo and Lavia avoiding number 4 shirt who knows maybe our reserve keeper will take it.

[Mário César 1,327]

now we will probably sell gallagher and who more? broja?

[Costa19 858]

£30-35m for Hall is very good business! 
 
He wont rock the PL nor get close to Chilwells levels. Never saw anything special with Hall tbh. 
 
Hopefully we can sell Broja for €35m as well 

[Mhsc 1,109]

Interesting thread. Can't say I know much about the man, his stats are so dog shit on fbref, I would never have even noticed him - we'd be betting a lot on the eye test that he has the skill to step up in a proper team.

Barcola looks the most interesting option to an extremely amateur scout like me, he out performs his xG which suggests to me in a good team/system he could score a decent number of goals, his assist stats are great, his defensive output is incredible and his videos look great.

Interesting they are both right footers.

Might be wanting to hold these for next year, either loans with obligation or either showcase them at Chelsea or loan them with view to sell next season. As I said before, I think we will need to make an absolute fuck load of very profitable sales every year from now on to stay in good shape with FFP, similar to what we've done this year. Gallagher for £50m+ would help us out an absolute tonne on next years books.
