The Uruguayan has not given up hope of getting LuaLua.
Gus Poyet: "It would be nice to have him back. You can have a player you have seen playing for another team and you like him and you go and try to get him, or a player you already have, somebody you know exactly how he behaves, trains and plays.
"That is the situation with him, (Kazenga) LuaLua, because he has been good for us. Of course, everybody has a price and we need to talk about it. It's not easy but we'll see.
"LuaLua is attached to Newcastle and we're still not 100% sure whether it is going to happen or not. We're waiting on them more than our desire to get the player."
