Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa: Has arrived in England

Newcastle agreed a deal over the weekend for the 23-year-old defender, who was also rumoured to be interesting Arsenal.

Now the French international has arrived in the North-East where the Newcastle hierarchy are hoping to convince him that a move to Tyneside is the right decision for him.

Newcastle are hopeful that Mbiwa, who will also undergo a medical, will finalise his transfer within 48 hours.

Mbiwa is not the only player in talks with Newcastle, as Nancy full-back Massaido Haidara is also in the city to conclude his switch.

m starting to think Roman may never actually be happy at the top level. If he wants all conquering fancy football I wonder if he'd be better off buying a lower division side then paying outlandish salaries to attract high caliber players too good for the division.

afa has to be favourite for the Everton job now, surely :) He'll realise his ambition to live and work on Merseyside again, get the best out of whoever plays for them, maybe win some cups and be thoroughly loathed by the toffee fans. What's not to like? Go ead, Ken, gimajob!
