Newcastle Transfers: Which 3 Strikers Are On Pardew's Wishlist To Replace Demba Ba?

3. Loic Remy

What we do know is that Loic Remy's name is on Alan Pardew's list of Demba Ba replacements, which is no real surprise when you consider that the Marseille striker has been linked with a move to St James' Park for a good while now. The Frenchman comes with glowing endorsements from Newcastle's talent spotters, according to The Journal, and he has scored 39 goals in 95 appearances for Marseille. News also broke today that Newcastle are in "advanced talks" over a deal for the striker, who could cost upwards of £10 million. But his capture will be viewed as a coup by Newcastle's hierarchy considering the likes of Chelsea were thought to be interested. Source(s): Metro
