David Ornstein reporting that Newcastle, Bayern and Spurs are interested in signing Ramsey but he'll probably be too expensive for any of them.

So probably not really news.

Ornstein's a London based rumour monger.

With the transfer window closing, lazy journos start trying to make DFP calculations and from that conjure transfer deals out of fresh air.

In the same article in The Athletic he mentioned Jhon Duran, Connor Gallagher and half of the Chelsea squad plus a few others names.

The only journos I pay any attention to are John Percy and Fab.
Ornstein is without doubt one of the best journalists out there.  He is far from a lazy journalist and I'd venture you don't know much about him if you think that.

He's still in the business of driving traffic to his content like any of the others.

Ornstein is a very good journalist with Percy levels of trustworthiness, writing for the athletic, which is an extremely well regarded publication and far from a pedlar of rubbish.

Exactly! Don't understand this weird penchant some have for treating The Athletic like it's some AI-written futballnoize.bg trash. Isn't it owned by the New York Times?

Exactly.  And a far wider network of contacts because of it.

I'm sure there is interest, he's a good player with a high ceiling.

Perhaps his agent wants a new deal.

I agree, but he’s blotted his copybook on this one.

He’s also said Newcastle “are interested” in him

Much the same way I am “interested in” Margot Robbie.

That would be more like AFC Penzance being after him. ;)

I really like Ramsey, but I'd probably do the deal at 50m. We've achieved this season without him and would do wonders for FFP (where the rules need changing, so that homegrown players aren't sacrificed at the altar).

Ornstein isn't even the journalist that covers us for the Athletic.
