If this happened I'd have to seriously question Nuno's judgement.
It's not done until the club has done the bid and the player has done the medical. They didn't accept the first bid so it wasn't done.
Obviously Skipp is not going to Newcastle.
We barely have a midfield ffs

That better be a joke
Maybe Levy has promised another midfielder will come in.
We all know that Levy keeps his promises.
Massively
will be an absolute wounder and you have to question Nuno. Dumb and dumber will get him sacked
He's only been here 5 minutes and he'll probably be sacked in 10.
"all but done", we have no idea if we went back with a second bid and waiting on the medical. Journalists have no idea. The way this has been simmering along it smells to me that an agreement was reached but waiting on the medical.
We will never know but going on the word of reporters who tend to be just as clueless.

Would you really have Danny Ings lead the line for Spurs next season? Aston Villa paid £30m for a player with 1 year left of his contract and he's on £120,000 a week.
I'd personally go for a younger CF; and would rather pay, say, £55m for Vlahovic and pay £200,000 a week.
Yes, in Ings you know what you get: a reliable give-all goal scorer. But he's 29.
Leon Bailey went from being valued at around £50-60m and wanted by all the big clubs after his first season at Leverkusen (2017-18) to being or no interest for the big clubs. He's known for his attitude problem and a bit of gamble by Aston Villa. A gamble that could pay off, as Bailey - on his day - is one of the best RW.

Skipp can go on loan to Newcastle if Barrios is brought in.
Deal Daniel?
There's not much left to crush is there?
I'd have had no beef with us signing Ings, but the point is there's plenty here that have a violent aversion to the word cheap.
Regardless of Kane; I'm confident we'll see more incoming players.
Seizing on the slightest opportunity to say 'ooh look at X' is all a bit thin....
Chavs: Still no Kounde, Haaland = fail, Lukaku still only a maybe.
United: Varane still pending.
Etc.

Damsgaard is another winger who prefers LW so this makes no sense.
Lots of business to be done. I expect we may wait until near deadline day for 'cheaper prices'
Ultimately it means the first 3 games of the season in particular Man City therefore become somewhat 'write offs' as it won't be the squad we want.
Here's what I'd do between now and then :
We need those 3 others Ins as a minimum in addition to Romero.
If we could also sell some players like Ben Davies and Harry Winks that would help the transfer kitty.
I would like a top quality backup ST but given the lack of funds at the moment I'd be happy with a Vinicius type deal but hopefully someone a bit more capable than Vinicius.
I think bringing in another attacker would be useful too preferably a creative player. Maybe someone who can drop into midfield or play in the attack.
3 more bodies in + Romero at a minimum but I'd like another attacker/midfielder too as our depth yesterday was rather poor.

| Outs | Ins |
| Sanchez - £20-25m Carter-Vickers - £5m Aurier - Somewhere around £10m Sissoko - FREE (Just let him go , if we can get a fee its a bonus) | New CB - Similar fee to what you got for Sanchez New RB (Probably Tomiyasu) - £15m Backup ST - Depends on fee they want to spend. |

Tbh i think were right to make a late call on skipp. Looked out of depth first 60 minutes last night. A year with premier league experience with newcastle is a good call. Pleased were after damsgaard. Need 2 strikers though.
Cool, if we push ahead with this he might be training with us by the end of pre-season...
20-FUCKING-35!
Seems more like a long overdue Eriksen replacement. A creative player that can play anywhere across the front. But looking at the potential difference in valuations we can likely forget it.
