Devilton · 26th May 2011, 12:27

I can see a lot of teams try to tap him up.

Everton, Newcastle, Spuds (maybe), Stoke, QPR

the question is how dodgy is his knee?

SharkyMcShark · 26th May 2011, 12:29

I'll have... Galatasaray

Elliott · 26th May 2011, 13:08

Newcastle boss Alan Pardew wants to snap up Demba Ba from West Ham on a free transfer as he tries to beat arch-rivals Sunderland to his signature.

Pardew has been alerted to the Senegalese striker’s availability - and eagerness to stay in the Premier League after the Hammers' relegation - and is putting a lucrative deal together.

Ba has a clause in his contract that allows him to leave and is fielding offers from other clubs before informing the *relegated outfit that he wants out, as he is not keen on spending a season in the Championship.

Sunderland are also *interested in Ba too, but he is just one of several targets that Steve Bruce has earmarked for a summer spend.

Newcastle are more focused on landing him though, as they try to replace Andy Carroll without spending a fortune.

The Geordies have had a bid for Lorient’s Kevin Gameiro rejected and are unwilling to match the £10million-plus asking price.

However they would throw a lot of money at Ba to land him without a transfer fee.

I saw this story linked elsewhere. How can he be on a free 6 months after joing for £7m quid or so? They didn't include a clause that allowed him to leave for free if they got relegated, did they?

cesc's_mullet · 1st June 2011, 06:11

Would be a great signing for Newcastle. If they snap him, Cabaye and somehow keep Ben Arfa (any word on that?) then they could be looking at a top 6-8 spot.

This is West Ham we are talking about. The club that gave Dyer a 2 year contract for 60k a week after he had missed almost 1.5 years due to injuries. Anything is possible with that clueless lot.

I wouldn't be surprised if Ba has a release on free contract if the club gets relegated. Hell, I wouldn't be shocked if there isn't a clause in there somewhere that West Ham have to pay for his plane ticket to his new club.

Ben Arfa move was made permanent in January.

Well there you go. They're assembling quite a good squad there. I wonder if they'd be willing to part with Cheik Tiote......................

Newcastle have made a lucrative offer to free agent Demba Ba on Friday and expect to conclude a deal early next week.

RDCR07 · 12th June 2011, 00:23

Newcastle have a pretty good squad as well. They will be a good mid table team.

Red Indian Chief Torn Rubber · 12th June 2011, 06:53

Newcastle are doing well for themselves in this window.

RedDevilCanuck · 12th June 2011, 16:18

Say what you want about their fat, shirtless fans, it is good to see Newcastle getting back on track.

They have a huge stadium, they usually fill the place, and they genuinely seem to love football and their team.

mufcwarm92 · 12th June 2011, 16:35

He'll do really well at Newcastle. Cracking signing.

Raven Blade · 12th June 2011, 18:00

Smart move Newcastle.

Ba looked like a dangerous striker in his short time at West Ham. He will definitely get you goals.

cesc's_mullet · 17th June 2011, 16:26

you win a prize

MalteseRedDevil · 17th June 2011, 16:29

Guitirrez--Barton---Tiote---Cabaye---Ben Arfa

Is easily on of the best midfield's outside the top 5 and With demba ba up top I think they have a great chance for a uefa cup spot. Defence could be their downfall. But it sounds like they have more money to spend so they could get even stronger

Man-United · 17th June 2011, 16:31

I think they are gonna miss Nolan.

Great deal for Newcaslte, I said in January that they were right not to spend money on Carroll's replacement because they'd be screwed up by whoever they approached back then. They are using the £35m from Carroll's deal really well so far, Ba (signed for nothing) will provide them with goals and Cabaye at £5m was a great bargain too.

Why did West Ham let him go on a free though? He signed for them in January for £7m, that's some bad management!

RedThaiDevils#7 · 17th June 2011, 18:18

Wonder why Nolan opted for Westham ? I don't understand this move, can anyone enlighten me ?

Also, I don't think Ba alone will be enough, they'll probably need 1 more striker if Niles does not improve the way he should...

They also have to look for a new LB if they part with Enrique... A player they will hugely miss imo.

1st goal was a good strike, the other two were headers - one from close range, and the other a bit of a glancing effort.

Good though, showed his classy side and then the opportunistic side. It's about his injuries, if he holds up, he'll be a massive asset for Newcastle and an excellent signing.

gooDevil · 24th September 2011, 19:28

So, how much will Liverpool end up paying for this guy?

SiYuan · 25th September 2011, 11:52

(Amount they sell Suarez) - 15 million

ciderman9000000 · 11th January 2012, 14:55

The Daily Mail are reporting our interest in him due to a £5m release clause in the summer. A member of his 'management team' seems to confirm the United interest in somewhat broken English, though says there's 'nothing concrete'.

He's certainly worth keeping an eye on and possibly sussing out, he's been sensational since coming to the Geordies. Just a matter of keeping him fit, I've a fear that if he came he might go all Louis the rou on us and spend a lot of time on the physios office.

Say we did go for him who would that mean is leaving to make way surely Mickey Owen seeing as we have already said we will be keeping Berbajang
