Agreed deal for Slimani

[jacapus]

I´m reading that Slimani´s injury isn´t that bad and he may make the team for Palace.

Now reported in Algerian press that he has failed his medical... Not the most reliable of sources but I hope its wrong or were f******.
The cynic in me thinks its got something to do with Mitro's cancelled move.Couldnt make it up if true... another kick in the b****** for the best club & fans in the world.

Even if we get him will he ever get a game in preference to Rafa's star man Joselu?

Yup.

Apperently he might have failed medical but all Newcastle and Leicester sources say deal is still on.

is he
how is rafa going to get the bal to him

how many of those 10 games he can play will rafa actually play him

and if we are going for a crock
why not go for the 5th rate lad from abroad

Well seeing that at half time at Stamford Bridge,we had about 5 shots on target and failed to score.
I think getting the ball to him shouldn't prove that much of a problem.

Newcastle boss Rafael Benitez, after his side's 1-1 draw with Burnley, on the prospect of Islam Slimani joining: "We still have time, I cannot say too much.

"We will see what happens. We are talking about different players. You'll maybe have to wait a couple of hours before you have all the information."

Seeing people saying the deal has been confirmed.

I've not seen anything on BBC or Chronicle feed though.

Maybe they´re reporting he failed the medical because he´s injured? Just a thought, like.
