French Claims That Yohan Cabaye Has Passed Medical At Monaco

Reports spread like wildfire last night that Yohan Cabaye is allegedly in the process of signing for Monaco having passed a medical yesterday.

The reports came after various media carried the story that French TV Station L’Equipe21 had said good sources had confirmed the medical had taken place.

As always, during the silly season you have to treat all such claims with a heavy dose of scepticism but the worst part is that now I’m at the stage of not being surprised if this turns out to be true.

The total lack of any visible transfer activity at St.James’ Park and all the negative vibes that are floating around Tyneside as to Newcastle United’s potential/likely (lack of) incoming players, means that a good number of supporters now take the view that they’d blame none of our best players if they left this summer.

This lack of faith is a dangerous situation to be in and I really hope this Cabaye rumour turns out to be the usual rubbish and we will see some positive action from Mr.Ashley.
