@MsiDouglas Yeah very much indifferent to this one. Great price for us given he was far from his best last season. The season before he looked an absolute world beater.
Will no doubt do well with Spurs but I wonโt lose sleep over it. Just need to replace him well.
@ToonTakeover_ Donโt really see the need to be salty. Itโs a good deal that makes sense for all parties. Letโs just send him on his say and move on.
Looks a tidy little player. Not gonna claim to know much more about him than what there is to see in highlight comps, but definitely looks like heโll be a threat off that left.
Start as we mean to go on! ๐ช #NUFC
๐จ Newcastle United reach agreement with Hoffenheim to sign Bazoumana Toure. 20yo Ivory Coast international granted permission to travel to Tyneside for medical & become second #NUFC summer recruit. W/ @JamesHorncastle@TheAthleticFC after @LukeEdwardsTele https://t.co/MlWRJ4cRFp
Itโs a great price for a player who didnโt reach his highest levels this past season.
That said, thereโs now a number of gaping holes in our side. The rest of this window needs to be very, very good.

๐จ Newcastle reach agreement with Tottenham to sell Sandro Tonali for a total package of ยฃ100m.
๐ค Newcastle have shaken hands on the deal tonight and feel that itโs a strong fee, with very achievable add-ons. They are very likely to achieve the full ยฃ100m.
โฌ๏ธ The feeling is this will enable the club to strengthen with high potential in more than one position.
๐ด #NUFCโs biggest sale ever, behind the ยฃ125m they took for Alexander Isak.

@TypicallyJayden Surely nobodyโs giving any thought to which continent each country belongs to? Never even crossed my mind that this was Europe vs South America til I saw this tweet.
We just watch and enjoy the games. This was easily one of the best moments of the tournament so far!
Absolutely love that performance from Paraguay. They deserve to advance. Defended with everything they had from start to finish. Canale was incredible ๐
Feel for Big Nick! Never looked confident walking up.
Just nowhere near a side thatโs got a World Cup in them at the moment.
Look at the devastation of that French attack last night. Then look at how feeble weโve been for three halves of football in a row. Miles apart.
๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ There's a lot of football to be played this afternoon (evening at home) but it'd England v Portugal in Toronto as it stands. Even if that changes (and it could also be Colombia), Spain would be waiting for them in Dallas in the last 16.
So yeah, no hurry here England....
โDonโt panicโ messages on the same day were told the club has a โtinyโ summer budget and our skipper gets linked with a move away.
Sounds like itโs all going swimmingly once again ๐คฃ๐คฆโโ๏ธ

In a world where Elliot Anderson is going for ยฃ116m, a ยฃ55m bid for our club captain and a Brazilian international is nothing less than an insult.
#NUFC
๐จ BREAKING from @FabrizioRomano:
Arsenal have made an official approach to Newcastle for Bruno Guimarรฃes. ๐ง๐ท
Arsenalโs intention was to pay ยฃ55m, but Newcastle will NOT part ways with the player for that amount.
It remains to be seen if Arsenal will come back to the table.
4 points on the board. Through to the next round. Still top the group. Panama last game and should still win the group.
Tournament football is never straightforward. Still got a point in a tough game ๐ช๐ช

I find soccer purists weird. Every sport, as it gets popular, makes adjustments to accommodate television coverage. Yes, the phony cover story of "hydration" is a bit silly, but healthy sports allow television networks to make more money so they can make more money!
@UsmanIfc Heโs direct and quick. Got talent but needs refined for sure. Not sure I see the reason why Liverpool even wanted him when theyโve got Rio on that side. Surely theyโre going to prioritise Rioโs development over this lad.
Anyway. All the best to kid. Wouldโve fit NUFC well.
Itโs a blow. No two ways about it. Brings about a pressure for the club to respond with something big/exciting. This habit of losing out is becoming tedious, and not befitting a club who say they want to be โnumber oneโ.
Time for the board to show their hand. #NUFC
There is no point pretending otherwise. Newcastle had a bid accepted for Victor Munoz and the player chose to go to Liverpool. Itโs a painful blow and brings back bad memories for #nufc from last summer.
When there is competition for targets they have a nasty habit of missing out.
But itโs a long summer. Judge the window in September not June. There are other targets they are working on.
@MsiDouglas Familiar feeling to start a window we were told would be different.
Absolutely right with that comment re pressure. Theyโve got to pull something out the bag now or fans will start to become very restless.
