Toon Transfer Speculation Worth Nothing!

We had four months to make a signing in the summer and Joe Kinnear blew it! So WHY talk about who he will sign in January?

But ... for those interested in the speculation ... Newcastle United must fork out £7m if they want to bring goalkeeper Jeroen Zoet to St James' Park

Sunday Sun: "Sources in Holland have told the Sunday Sun that Zoet’s elevation to No 1 at PSV has strengthened the hand of the former European Cup winners, who were prepared to let listen to offers around the £2million mark only in August.

"Those were the ballpark figures understood to be quoted to United back then and, while the Magpies did not put in a bid for the 22-year-old in July, representatives have checked out Zoet’s progress in the last few weeks.

"But Zoet’s price has soared since the summer after PSV started the season like a house on fire, powering to the top of the Eredivisie with the Dutch Under-21 international keeping four clean sheets in seven games – including a solid display in last weekend’s 4-0 pasting of bitter rivals Ajax.

"Zoet has recently signed a contract until 2017 with PSV, but is unlikely to shirk the chance to play in the Premier League."
