Mo Diame to Newcastle: Hull midfielder’s secret Toon move revealed by fan’s MUM who bumped into him during medical
MO DIAME'S secret move to Newcastle has been discovered by a fan's MUM.
Toon are confident of landing the Hull midfielder, 29, after triggering his £4.5million release clause on Sunday.
And it now appears set in stone, after Twitter user @Allenocon uploaded a picture sent by his mother claiming the star was in hospital for a medical.
He posted: "Me ma just sent is this. #NUFC" (sic)
The text from Allen's 'mam' reads: "Look who was in the hospital getting his medical xxx". The woman also attached a selfie of herself and the Senegalese ace.
Diame is keen on joining the Magpies despite it meaning he drops down a division from the Premier League.
But the Tigers were hanging on to their prize asset and even offered a new long-term contract, with his deal due to expire next summer.
Newcastle manager Rafa Benitez has been busy this summer bringing in six new faces for his promotion ambitions.
