According to reports, we are interested to sign Clement Grenier of Lyon and Lyon are prepared to sell so they can balance the books. But, they will only sell if things can happen before June 30th. I personally would love to have him in the team. If true, what would you guys think about this?

The same guy Newcastle pretty much signed for 7m then last minute lyon decided he was worth 15m

Grenier would be a superb signing (7 goals, 8 assists), his free kicks and long passing last season were incredible, however I still prefer Rémy Cabella as an attacking addition to the midfield. As I mentioned in a previous post Cabella scored 14 goals with 9 assists last season and has been a very impressive dribbler and a standout player for Montpellier.

Newcastle have been linked with both players for some time now, however Montpellier weren't happy with Newcastle's valuation or standing in the Premier League.

Personally I'd be very happy with either player, however Cabella is the greater player as an attacking option and as I see that as our priority position right now I would see Cabella as a more effective transfer.

We should always be interested in class players but our midfield is pretty full. If Lallana doesn't want to live the dream then let's go for Cabella by all means.

Looks like he could be an impressive signing the only thing is though, arsenal and Everton want him aswell.

Hasn't Grenier sustained a few longish term injuries over the last few seasons? We need consistency in our team and having a player who would be bought for the first team but who only plays half the season isn't really ideal

Great player but can't see him joining us, hope we sign 5 decent players soon inc 2 strikers
