http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2...-sports-direct"Newcastle United are preparing a shock bid for want-away Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney. SportsDirect News has learned the Magpies have already sounded out Rooney's agent over a potential move, with United keen to offload the 27-year-old.
"Rooney is seen as a perfect candidate to boost the Magpies' chances of a top-four tilt next season – and is seen as a man who will be hero-worshipped at St James' Park."
The article, which has appeared on the company's website, also quotes a source "close to negotiations" who says: "Newcastle see Wayne as their ideal player. He's a strong centre-forward, would relate to the fans and would be a massive boost to the club's brand name.
"Low-level conversations have already been held between Newcastle and Rooney's agent, though the two clubs haven't spoken directly yet."
From the SunBACARY SAGNA has stunned Arsenal by opening the door for a summer move to Paris Saint-Germain or Monaco.
Bye then.
The website of Sports Direct, the retail company owned by the Newcastle United owner, Mike Ashley, has apologised for publishing a story suggesting that the club were trying to sign Wayne Rooney from Manchester United, admitting that it was untrue.
The striker, who was targeted by Newcastle before he moved to United from Everton in 2004, is contemplating a transfer from Old Trafford, with Sir Alex Ferguson claiming after his final home game in charge that the forward has asked to leave the club. A number of clubs have been linked with Rooney and Sports Direct claimed that Newcastle were in the hunt.
The original story, which has been removed from the site, read: "Newcastle United are preparing a shock bid for want-away Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney. SportsDirect News has learned the Magpies have already sounded out Rooney's agent over a potential move, with United keen to offload the 27-year-old.
`Stunned`, not really, didnt we expect this.From the Sun
More stunned that their scouting must be shit!
Society is now one polished horde
Formed by two mighty tribes, the bores and the bored.
"After all, it was the Gunners’ goalkeeper who started the move that culminated in Thomas’ crowning glory. It was Lukic who, in injury time, decided to throw the ball out to Lee Dixon rather than lump it long..."
