I think he and Newcastle United would both kick on if that transfer happened – Louis Saha | OneFootball

Louis Saha has been talking about Newcastle United.

The former NUFC striker chatting ahead of the new season.

Louis Saha signed on loan from Metz in January 1999 and ended up playing 12 times, the highlight of his brief NUFC stay was a winner at Blackburn in an FA Cup fifth round replay on the way to Ruud Gullit taking Newcastle to Wembley.

Louis Saha of course later went on to play for both Manchester United and Everton, amongst others.

Now the former player has been specifically looking at the summer transfer window and what could be possible at Newcastle United…

Louis Sah asked by Coin Poker; ‘If Newcastle United lose Anthony Gordon this summer does that mean the club have gone backwards?’

“Every squad has its flows, in and out.

“Anthony has done really well at Newcastle since he arrived, and he’s only getting better. He’s still got potential to improve.

“Because of that, he’s attracting interest from huge clubs, and maybe Liverpool are even bigger than Newcastle. If he goes to Liverpool, it’ll be because they offer a better chance of winning trophies.

“On the one hand, it shows Newcastle are doing the right things, developing players to this level, and their players are visibly succeeding. It’s a good sign really, because he’s only 24 and he’s come on so much at Newcastle, he’s still a kid really.

“Newcastle have shown with him, and other players including Joelinton, that it’s only a good thing to join the club.

“They’ve developed well without spending more than they can afford, and they have the ability to get even better even if he leaves.”

Louis Saha asked; ‘If Anthony Elanga joins Newcastle United from Nottingham Forest is that a good signing?’

“He’s a top player who’s always trying to improve.

“He’s shown amazing ability for Nottingham Forest and I hope he gets the most from his career.

“He’s the type of player who meets Newcastle’s trajectory on the way up and they want a big squad to cope with the demands of playing domestically and in Europe.

“I think he’s one of those players who can handle the physicality of the game and he’s one of Nottingham Forest’s biggest assets. He’s essential to how they play.
