Still wages to pay. Would have been nice to get rid of he isn’t working out and free up the wages for someone else.

Many premier league squads have unwanted players signed by a previous manager. It's such a mad strategy when managers last on average less than 12 months

Rumour has been said on here before, he wasn't an algorithm signing but a player RDZ wanted specifically??
Yeah the Fati and Dahoud signings are not doing RDZ a lot of favours with regard to his judgement of signings.
He seems to start games though, like last weekend. 8 games and 1 goal so far. Which paper did you read this in?

Not what I Heard
Its well documented, with verbatim quotes from RDZ, that he had 'admired' the player for a long time, and had actively tried to sign him for at least one previous club.

The threat it seemed to pose a year ago to the established order was complete bollocks. It will just be a semi retirement league or a way of established clubs laundering cash for FFP purposes
This is a good point. Newcastle could have money pumped into the club via their owners buying players for their league. Does the “market value” criteria hold for player sales as well as other deals?

Perhaps we could exchange him for that Sima fellow at Rangers. If Undav doesn't want to come back because he's homesick away from Germany, perhaps Sima would be happy to come and be our third/fourth choice striker. Similar player in one way - not very good at football generally, but just scores goals!
There's rules which prevent clubs circumventing FFP with above 'market value' income from things like sponsorship. Say the typical market rate for a shirt sponsorship is 1m a season but Etihad gave Man City 6m it could be the case this deal is not really a sponsorship deal but actually an arrangement to pump money into the club via the back door.Have to admit I don't really understand what you're asking
I know this exists for sponship....but it could also be used by the owners of Newcastle as I think they also have very close links with the Saudi league which also owns 4 clubs. For example, Saudi League club buys Anthony Gordon for 500m. Simple way of pumping money into the club via the backdoor.
At least I think this is the case. Maybe @El Presidente knows more?
Edit: Not sure why I cc-ed El Pres....I'm sure the words "pump" and "back door" will trigger an alert at El Pres Towers.

Hurzeler taking a proper look at him before a decision is made? Or scouts from other teams in attendance to see about a loan?
Found his level?
Though if, as #Brighton Tom has suggested, it may be because a potential buyer wants to have a look at him - I hope he plays a blinder!

Is it even a strong u21 team given some played earlier?
