Newcastle Transfer Rumours

Ok. Before we start, let me get one thing straight. None of these RUMOURS have been confirmed.

Firstly, I have heard that PSV's Mark Van Bommel and Kevin Hofland are near the top of Sir Bobby Robson's summer shopping list.

Robson is also supposedly to make bids for Rangers Barry Ferguson and Fulham's Steve Finnan.

Germany football fans are saying that Owen Hargreaves is having talks with Newcastle and could sign for us in the summer for £6 million.

After the £10 million bid for James Beattie failed we will try and sign Freddy Kanoute from West Ham, depending whether they go down or not.

A few defenders have also been mentioned recently. Gareth Southgate ofcourse, but also Stephen Carr from Spurs' (WHO???) and Jaap Stam, but I think the Stam rumour has died down now.

I can't see any need for us to sign Kanoute with Ambrose, Jenas, Dyer, Viana etc, but Beattie would be an excellent player to replace Alan Shearer without changing our style of play. Shearer cannot go on forever now...or can he?

Patrik Kluivert looks like he is off to Manchester United so there hasn't been any talks of him lately, and Craig Bellamy looks like he will be staying put at St James' Park after Man Utd said they do not want him.

Once again, I must say that none of these have been confirmed!
