Wednesday began with perhaps one of the silliest transfer rumours feasibly possible for Newcastle United this summer. Neymar. The world's most expensive footballer. A Brazilian brand all on his own, more well known than some Premier League clubs. A man who could walk into any football side in the world.
For the record, Neymar won't be joining Newcastle United this summer - for a number of reasons. Mainly, the Brazilian doesn't strike me as the type of player who fancies ditching the French capital and the glory that comes with it, for a mid-table Premier League side.
Wednesday ended with much more sensible news. A new three-year deal for Sean Longstaff. Well-received by not only fans but the Newcastle dressing room too.
