PSV "Take It Of Leave It" Offer To Luque

PSV Eindhoven have offered him a chance to put his past behind him and in the next five months show the world that he really is worthy of a £9.5m price tag.

The Spanish striker claims he is so "desperate" to play again, but will he accept a big drop in wages to go on loan to Holland?

The 28-year-old is at the crossroads in his career, but how badly does he want a move? He certainly likes his £40,000 per week wages, but Newcastle are not prepared to pay half his wages while he plays for someone else. And PSV will only pay him £20k a week.

This will decide how DESPERATE he really is. I tend to feel he is no better than the other Spanish international we had on our books - Marcelino - who sat out four years at St James' Park going through the medical book looking for excuses!
