Don’t think he’ll be going anywhere this window given the injury.

 

[Bladesman]

Being linked with a move to Saudi Arabia.

Weird one. Lad was looking great before the injury, but he's only really had what, half a season when he was flying? There's no guarantees that he'll regain his best form, even if he stays and recovers his fitness.

Pretty sure it's bollocks, but stranger things have happened. Just add a bit of Saudi Tax to make it worth our while...

 

[Aston max]

Right conspiracy theory

New owner won't pass fitness test so he sorts it for RND to be sold to Saudi for 100 million, hecky is happy and when RND is fit he comes back on loan

Hey I'm good at this

 

[McDonagh Blade]

Wasn't he born in Saudi Arabia? Very interesting

 

[S40BLADE]

Such a strange rumour I can't help but think it's true. Welsh International with Saudi Connections at a club owned by a Saudi. Could be us benefiting from the current rule-dodging use of the Saudi League. Would be a shame to lose him cause I'm a big fan but extra cash is needed RN.

I wonder if this might be us using our connections over there to get some of that sweet, sweet Saudi sportswashing money.

Pourrrrr some sport washing on meeeeeeeee!

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

If we could get good money for him I'd probably take it. He has to be considered an injury risk

 

[Bladeinleeds]

Given he is arguably our best LwB and LCB at the moment (not saying this is true but it’s certainly a conversation given how well he was playing pre injury)

And we are still light in these positions - there’s an argument for holding out for mental money for him if this is true.

 

[bongleblade]

Couldn’t we have sold JOC??

It's Saudi Arabia, they only deal in mental money.

So mental they think Jordan Henderson is worth £200k a week!

 

[unitedbhoy]

thought this was just a made up rumour?

Pretty sure hendo is on near that for Liverpool. Suspect you can nearly double it.

Assuming there’s no really validity in it anyway but I’d want 20m+ for RND ‘if’ they are sniffing - and I don’t think that’s unreasonable given he’s a young international in a position of need and was playing really well and they are just throwing money around.

If a random Newcastle fan with 130 followers is breaking this, it must be true.

 

[dazzlingblade]

Wouldn't be at all surprised if there is legs in this, an international full back, that wouldn't use up an overseas spot in squads, I'd be surprised if he isn't on most Saudi teams radar

 

[Frank the tank]

See how many times in this thread people repost the same rumour from different twitter feeds as confirmation
Then the usual fannies will read even more into it
Like it must mean we are selling ndiaye as well as the Welsh flag has a dragon on it and ndiayes father used to own a cat called snap
This will be then accepted as fact by a small vocal minority of fannies who will berate the club but then mysteriously disappear when the story is confirmed as false

Makes sense...
Let the bidding war commence.
Not that I want to lose him.

I still wouldn't accept anything other than well above his value

That value being a very good player, who covers 2 positions that we aren't overly strong in

 

[CaptainMorgans]

Very unlikely you're going to sell a player who hasn't kicked a ball for almost a year.
Saudi or not.

I'm off to the airport with my "Goodbye Rhys" sign, as we speak!

 

[Groucho Blade]

Are they really bidding for an injured player?

 

[jono_t2000]

That's not the original sauce. The person who originally mentioned it is a saudi media person with over 100k followers..

 

[Berkshire Blade]

Hopefully one of our princes cousins is feeling particularly generous!

But in reality I don't think there is anything in this whatsoever

 

[South Sea Blade]

That's not the original sauce. The person who originally mentioned it is a saudi media person with over 100k followers..

This is the original sauce:

I'm doing 'Fake taxi' today so I'll see you there!

 

[8lade]

This rumour looks to me like they're trying to pull him into the Saudi team but didn't realise he had the long term injury.

Cool, wear the pink set
