Kieron Dyer held talks with West Ham yesterday after Newcastle finally accepted the club's £6m bid for the midfielder. Dyer had been expected to join West Ham last week but Newcastle pulled the plug on the deal at the last minute.

Boss Alan Curbishley revived the deal on Monday and the England international is expected to move to Upton Park after negotiations continued with the player and Newcastle, who are hoping for £2m more based on appearances.


Portsmouth now seem unlikely to pursue their bid to sign Newcastle winger Nolberto Solano.

The Peruvian is keen to move closer to his family in London but the resurrection of Dyer's move to West Ham has ruled out a switch to Upton Park.

Solano, 32, attracted interest from Spain but has vowed to stay at St James' Park if he cannot get a move to a Premier League club in the south.


At last!

And you got him for £6 m

Congrats

Now we'll see if he stays fit

could be a good signing. where do you think you'll play him?

Isn't that the same deal from two weeks ago?

Good signing, probably used on the left with Ljungberg right. He is versitile though.

I think he could be a good signing if he stays fit for a decent amount of time, but when was the last time that happened?

So Newcastle shafted you and got away with it then - by walking away from the negotiating table when there was an 'agreed' price of £5m they got you to offer more.

Nice one.
