Demba Ba (Newcastle United)

According to ssn the star onnsunday is reporting we are leading the race to sign ba who has a ten million release clause.

Think I saw an LFC journo state the £10 million release clause was only applicable to clubs in the Champions league

Shouldn't we be offering something like £35 million anyway?

ye thatd be more like us. Ye heard that aswel nobody really knows though
 Its all only rumours .

Arsenal players go to Man City.

Newcastle players come to us!

Can't see anyone signing him now when he's off on international duty.

Maybe in the summer.

Straight swop for Andy Carroll,give them one of their own back,after all he was idolised up there, it would be like us having 'God' back in his prime, perfect scenario,for both clubs.     

yes please. the lad look magnificent everytime I see him....

Liverpool FC target Demba Ba could cost just £5m claims Harry Redknapp

Newcastle striker Demba Ba, who is believed to be a target for Arsenal, Liverpool and others, is available for less than his reported £10million release clause, according to Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp.

Premier League clubs were put on alert late last week after it emerged that Ba has a release clause in his contract on Tyneside.

The 26-year-old was believed to be available for £10million, with a report on Sunday suggesting Chelsea, Manchester City and Manchester United were also showing interest, along with Tottenham (see below).

Newcastle officials are desperately trying to keep Ba at the club after news of his buy-out clause was made public, by offering him improved terms on his three-year deal.

But when asked about the Senegal international's £10m release clause, Redknapp said: "I think you will find it is a lot less than that."

And when asked if was as little as £7m, Redknapp was quoted by the Daily Mirror as adding: "Even less than that."

A whole host of clubs are now expected to launch bids for the former West Ham forward before the end of the month.

As you all know of course, Harry Redknapp doesn't like talking about other clubs players.   

 I was just going to post that JD,it appears Redknapp is saying the release clause is only 5 million quid.I imagine he would want a big signing on fee and big wages.

But JD - He's a T'riffic Player and would be an asset to the dressing room and the squad.

Would love to know how Harry thinks he knows about an apparent £5m release clause in Ba's contract. We should put an offer in and see what comes of it he would be a good addition for the latter games of the season at a small fee (if this release clause rumour is true). 

We should go in for and take their pants down at the lowest price possible, with him and Enrique robbed from Newcastle will make feel a lot better about getting our pants took down over Carroll.

£5 million for Champions league sides £10 million for the rest thats what ive heard but dont have it in  Black and white . Could be a great asset .

Realistically, how would Refknapp know and no one else know Would it just be his connections?

F**k off Del Boy you dodgy tw*t, what has Newcastles business got to do with him?

He is one sly c**t that fella, he's won F**k all in his time as manager bar an FA Cup, spent sh*t loads of money are Spuds, has them in the top 4 and now qualifies as the leading England candidate.

F**k that off.

I would presume that if Redknapp know's then most other managers will know as well and after him opening his mouth and doing what he apparently never does everybody now knows.

If he is telling the truthand not just talking sh*te again.

I shall assume that you are not a fan of him then

Get him in.

I shall assume that you are not a fan of him then

Is anyone?

I shall assume that you are not a fan of him then

Actually other than he's alright!

£5 million for Champions league sides £10 million for the rest thats what ive heard but dont have it in  Black and white . Could be a great asset .

No pun intended?

Worth a gamble in my opinion. It would be a gamble as he has had transfers halted because of failed fitness tests at a couple of clubs before joining Newcastle. (according to Wiki anyway)

He has dodgy knees. I think the issue is not that he is prone to injury, but that if his knee does get injured, it takes longer to recover than for most players.

For £5M though it would be a gamble worth taking.
