Newcastle are priced out of Bafetimbi Gomis deal
NEWCASTLE have pulled the plug on signing another French forward – Lyon’s Bafetimbi Gomis.
The clubs had agreed a £7million fee but Newcastle have refused to meet what they feel are exorbitant agents fees.
Now Marseille have come in with a similar offer, hoping to keep the player in his native country.
PSG are weighing up a bid for Toon midfielder Yohan Cabaye, but Newcastle want £20m for the player.
