It’s been a busy few days for a host of former Mags, with Allan Saint-Maximin, Moussa Sissoko, Craig Bellamy and Scott Parker all on the move.
Starting with Saint-Maximin, talk of the winger leaving Saudi side Al Ahli for Fenerbahce has gathered pace today, with Foot Mercato revealing that the 27-year-old is all set to join the Turkish giants on loan following talks with Joe Mourinho.
This comes just 12 months after the former Nice star left Newcastle for the Saudi Pro League and it’s believed he’ll take a pay cut to push through a move to Istanbul.
Then to Sissoko, who has sealed a surprise return to English football by signing a two-year deal with Watford. The 34-year-old arrives on a free transfer and will play in the Championship next season after leaving Ligue 1 side Nantes.
Finally, we’ve also seen two familiar names land jobs in management this week, with former Newcastle United striker Craig Bellamy landing the Wales job and ex-Toon skipper Scott Parker named the new Burnley boss following Vincent Kompany’s move to Bayern Munich.
