Newcastle Transfers: 5 Strikers To Replace Demba Ba

1. Loic Remy

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yrp9zRT5QIc Loic Remy has been on Newcastle's radar for some time and the Frenchman would be the ideal replacement for Demba Ba and could link up with the other French speaking internationals already in the side. He would provide the Magpies with an extra dimension up front, but Newcastle have been told they must pay upwards of £15million for the striker when they were only prepared to offer £10million for a player who has managed only one goal in a stunted 12 appearances for Marseille this season. However, Remy has stated he would be interested in a move to St James Park. He said:
"Newcastle are a very good team, they are a big club with good players, very good fans and a nice stadium that is always full. "The window opens in January, and there will be speculation from now until the window closes - if I have to leave then all parties must be happy. I have a contract so let's wait and see what happens."
