Oliver Kahn's analysis

"It was a great month, very pleasing at all. All the players contributed in a swift fashion to our pre-season preparation and I want to congratulate them all for the three wins they managed to do. The month could look perfect considering we dominated Marseille and were equalised late, but a draw at Vellodrome is always a decent result. I can't wait for August, I can't wait for the League season to begin!"

Krul fully fit and ready to start in August

"It was a hard month, no one likes to be injured but I have a good feeling because I'll be back very soon." declared Krul.
Good pre-season !Nice match. Good luck man !

Newcastle signed's Feyenoord de Vrij


http://cdn.worldcupblog.org/netherlands.worldcupblog.org/files/2012/05/de-vrij.jpg

This time, the move is official! The 21 years old central defender Stefan de Vrij joined Newcastle squad this morning and looked happy to play in the English Premier League. That's the first Oliver Kahn's move since arriving at Newcastle, after having no succes with Julian Brandt and A. Carrillo deals.

Newcastle signed the Dutch defender for an undisclosed fee, rumoured to be about £2M. The youngster pen a deal until the first of July 2016 with a weekly wage of about £15K.

"I feel very good knowing that I am Newcastle's first transfer since mr. Kahn came here and I am very happy because is clear that he had a lot of trust in me if he decided to sign me." declared de Vrij.

"In the future he will be a star defender, I'm sure about that. We signed him having a lot of faith in his qualities and I'm looking forward to have a player like him. We won't stop the buys to have a good season in the Premier." said Oliver Kahn.

Stefan de Vrij, born 5 February 1992 in Ouderkerk aan den Ijssel, is a Dutch footballer who plays as a defender.

On 17 July 2009, De Vrij signed his first professional contract with Feyenoord until summer 2012. De Vrij made his official debut for Feyenoord's first team on 24 September 2009. He replaced Leerdam in the 58th minute in the KNVB Cup away match against Harkemase Boys (0–5). On 6 December 2009, De Vrij made his Eredivisie debut in the home match against FC Groningen (3–1), when he replaced Denny Landzaat in the 89th minute. During the 2012–13 season, De Vrij replaced Ron Vlaar as team captain.

On 7 May 2012, De Vrij was named in the provisional list of 36 players for the UEFA Euro 2012 tournament, one of nine uncapped players to be chosen by Netherlands manager Bert van Marwijk as part of the preliminary squad. He did not make the final cut. On 15 August 2012, De Vrij made his debut under new manager Louis van Gaal in the 4–2 loss against Belgium in a friendly match.

Oliver Kahn seems like a head coach who really cares about bringing the best youngsters at his club. After signing de Vrij, he brought at the Tyneside squad Salzburg's 21 years old left winger Mané.

Newcastle bought the Senegal International for a fee of about £3M in excess, the youngster signing a deal until first of July 2015 with a weekly wage of about £19K.

"My life is now completed: i play in the English Premier. I want the Newcastle fans to know that I am an ambitious person with high goals just like the club and I can't wait to show people what I can. Mr. Kahn had a lot of faith in me if he decided to sign me so I need to make a good job here." said Mané.

"Honestly, I'm watching Mané closely since 2011 in the Metz period, and once I realised that I want to become a coach, I told myself that he would be a great buy. So, look at him! He's in white and black, next to me. He will prove his qualities soon!" passionately declared Oliver Kahn.

Sadio Mané, born 10 April 1992, is a Senegalese footballer who plays as a left winger.

Born in Sédhiou, Mané joined the French club Metz in the summer of 2011, initially as a reserve team player. He made his debut for the Championnat de France amateur side on 14 August 2011 in the 4–1 home win over Monts d'Or Azergues. Two months later, Mané scored his first goal for Metz B in the 4–0 victory away at Sarre-Union. After scoring twice in 12 league appearances during the first half of the 2011–12 season, he was called up to the senior team.

Mané played his first Ligue 2 match for Metz in the 0–1 home defeat to Bastia on 14 January 2012, coming on as a 75th-minute substitute for Kévin Diaz. He started the next game as the side drew 1–1 away at Châteauroux, before returning to the bench for the 0–2 loss against Sedan on 27 January. Mané went on to make 22 league appearances in total for Metz before joining Red Bull Salzburg at the start of the 2012–13 season.

Newcastle get Leyton Orient in Capital One Cup




Newcastle United will play Leyton Orient in the Capital One Cup Second Round.

Newcastle had been drawn as the home team in the match so the game will be played at the St. James' Park on Tuesday 27th August 2013.

Although neither team have ever won the Capital One Cup, Newcastle have finished as runners up one occasion. The current holders of the competition are Swansea City.

"I respect Leyton but I think we have the first chance." shortly declared Oliver Kahn.

"Tough draw for us, I didn't wanted a Premier League team but that's the life sometimes." said Leyton's boss Russell Slade.

Marveaux left Newcastle on a loan to Norwich


http://www.nufc.co.uk/javaImages/1f/cd/0,,10278~9751839,00.jpg

Newcastle's French 27 year old attacking midfielder Sylvain Marveaux has joined Norwich on loan until the end of the season. The ex-Stade Rennais FC player signed for English Premier League team Newcastle on a free in 2011.

Norwich need to contribute with £24K in Marveaux's £40K weekly wage.

"I'm leaving on a loan now because I feel that I can't get pro football here. After my loan expires, probably I will leave Newcastle permanently." declared Marveaux.

Sylvain didn't look to be in Oliver Kahn's plans since the 44 years old German arrived at St. James'. After blocking Brandt's move in England, Marveaux leaves now Newcastle on a loan.

Tranmere loan Newcastle's Sammy Ameobi


http://i1.gazettelive.co.uk/incoming/article3606646.ece/ALTERNATES/s615/sammy-ameobi-748785508-3606646.jpg

Newcastle's Sammy Ameobi has joined Tranmere on a loan for three months. Ameobi's most recent loan move was an unsuccessfull spell at Middlesbrough.

Ameobi leaves Newcastle for three months after Kahn didn't felt that he can actually contribute with something at the club. Tranmere are expected to weekly contribute with £1.5K at Ameobi's wage.

Samuel Oluwaseyi J. "Sammy" Ameobi, born 1 May 1992, is an English footballer who plays as a winger. He is the younger brother of fellow players Shola and Tomi Ameobi.

Born in Newcastle upon Tyne, Tyne and Wear, Ameobi joined the Newcastle United Academy in July 2008 after finishing school and made his reserve team debut on 29 September 2008 against Blackburn Rovers. He made his first-team debut on 15 May 2011 as a second-half substitute against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in a 2–2 draw, alongside his brother Shola, coming on for Peter Løvenkrands just before Chelsea made the game 2–1. This prompted Newcastle fans to change a favourite chant from "There's only one Ameobi" to "There's only two Ameobis". They became the first pair of brothers to play for Newcastle in a league match since George and Ted Robledo in 1952.

Bolton Wanderers loan Newcastle's Haris Vu?ki?


http://img.thesun.co.uk/aidemitlum/archive/01600/vuckic_1600170a.jpg

Newcastle's 20 years old midfielder Haris Vu?ki? has agreed to a deal with Bolton. Vu?ki? felt the chance of more playing time to be a considerable factor in his decision. Newcastle have confirmed the deal, the loan will stand until the end of the season.

Haris Vu?ki?, born 21 August 1992 in Ljubljana, is a Slovenian footballer who plays as a midfielder. On 16 January 2009, it was confirmed that Vu?ki? would sign for Premier League team Newcastle United for a substantial fee and signed a three and a half year deal at St. James' Park. He is regarded as one of Europe's brightest talents and reports suggest he underwent a trial at AC Milan.

Vu?ki? made his first appearance for Newcastle's reserve team on 16 February 2009 when he came off the bench to score the winning goal against Blackburn reserves, curling a left-footed shot into the bottom corner from 20 yards. He scored his first goal for the U18 team in his league debut in a 4–2 away win at Derby.

He has scored three goals altogether for the reserves, two league goals for the U18s and five more in 2009–10 pre-season friendlies. Vu?ki? made his Newcastle United debut on 26 August 2009 as a late substitute in a League Cup tie with Huddersfield Town, where he played on the left wing. Five days later Vu?ki? came off the bench to replace striker Nile Ranger in a 1–0 victory over Leicester City. This was to be his first league appearance for the club.

Vu?ki? scored his first senior goal for Newcastle against Carlisle United in a friendly on 17 July 2010 with a curled effort into the bottom left hand corner. In the 2010–2011 campaign, Newcastle manager Chris Hughton gave many of the youngsters a chance in the Football League Cup, Vu?ki? played in the second round tie against Accrington Stanley in central midfield alongside fellow youngster Ryan Donaldson. After Newcastle progressed with a 3–2 victory, he played in the third round away game to Chelsea, where Newcastle overcame expectations to win 4–3 in a thrilling encounter. He continued his impressive display against Arsenal in the League Cup fourth round getting the Man of the Match award despite Newcastle United losing 4–0. In January 2011 Vu?ki? signed a new five and a half year contract with Newcastle.

On 26 July 2011, Vu?ki? went on to score again for Newcastle, scoring the final goal in a 3–0 win over MLS side Columbus Crew. In Newcastle United's next pre-season friendly against Leeds United at Elland Road, Vu?ki? went on to score Newcastle's second goal and provided an impressive display since coming on despite Newcastle losing the game 3–2. He made his Premier League debut on 28 August 2011 against Fulham as a 78th minute substitute, but was himself substituted seven minutes later with a suspected dislocated finger. He made his comeback for the team as a substitute four months later in a 0–0 draw with Swansea City. He went on to make his first Premiership start for Newcastle against West Bromwich Albion on 21 December and won plaudits for his performance, which included hitting the woodwork from 30 yards and forcing a fine save from the opposition goalkeeper.

On 30 August, Vu?ki? made his continental début for Newcastle United, coming on as a substitute for an injured Ryan Taylor against Greek side Atromitos, scoring the winning goal in the process, sending Newcastle through to the Europa League group stages.

He has represented Slovenia international youth selections in every category to date. On 1 October 2010, he was summoned into a 23-man squad of the Slovenia national football team for the UEFA Euro 2012 qualifying matches against Faroe Islands and Estonia, however, he did not make his debut at the time. His international debut did come in a Friendly match against Scotland on 29 February 2012.

"It was the right moment for him to leave, we don't know if we'll keep him so a loan move will give us time to think." declared Oliveh Kahn, who doesn't look to have central attacking midfielders in his future plans.
Good start to the story mate with some nice updates :)

pompeyblue Thanks a lot, mate. Hope I'll continue it just like that!
A great few transfer updates. I would have personally tried to get rid of Marveaux on a permanent deal - he is close to useless!

Jamesg237 Thanks for the feedback. Believe me, I desperatelly tried to find Marveaux a club for a permanent deal but I had only loan offers. Hope he'll do well at Norwich to attract some fees.
