The Telegraph seems to be the only paper reporting in Wednesday's editions that West Ham and Newcastle are taking another stab granting Kieron Dyer's wish for a transfer out of Tyneside to be closer to his children. The Telegraph said that the initial fee for the 28-year-old would be £6 million, with up to £1 million more contingent on Dyer's appearances. The article notes that previous reports were of a £5 million transfer fee with the same £1 million contingent on appearances, so the clubs are compromising after Newcastle upped their requirements by £2 million pounds at the last minute. This is probably the most good that former Magpie Lee Bowyer has ever done Newcastle United.
Transfer speculation continues regarding Dyer's Newcastle teammate and fellow midfielder, Nolberto Solano, who turns 33 in December. The Peruvian also wants to move to London for family reasons. At the very end of the Telegraph article on Dyer's probably-on-again transfer, there is a mention of striker Eidur Gudjohnsen's possible move to Upton park. Gudjohnsen's wage demands continue to be £100,000 a week.
