dont know if this has been posted feel free to move or delete this but...

i found this here http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/nufc/newcastle-united-news/2008/06/28/transfer-funds-blow-for-keegan-72703-21166889/

at the end there is a quote that reads...


The Chronicle revealed on May 21 that Toronto FC boss John Carver wanted to sign Ameobi and, despite the player’s agent Steven Denos ruling out a move to the MLS, the word from across the Atlantic is that the Canadian club are keeping tabs on the recently-married player’s situation.
And talk that Toronto couldn’t afford Shola’s wages has been dismissed by the club.
Mega-bucks Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment group are ready to back a move for the player.
And TFC could exercise their designated player card, which allows teams to have one player earning more than the MLS’s salary cap of $400,00
what do you guys make of this...

Ya I'm sure we can afford his wages but what kind of transfer fee is Newcastle looking for?

The story implied that Keegan could be short 3 million pounds with West Brom pulling out of the potential deal.

Do any of us really envision MLS putting out anywhere near that kind of money for anybody outside of a top superstar? When has MLS last paid out any sort of transfer fee for a player?

All TFC's import signings have been released or out of contract!

Just something to keep in mind.
