Newcastle to sign Janmaat for £5m

The Holland right-back had been due on Tyneside on Monday but the arrival of a player who turns 25 next week was delayed as Janmaat felt unwell after Holland's long flight back from Brazil on Sunday. Providing he has recovered, the deal should be completed on Tuesday, leaving Alan Pardew delighted to have so swiftly signed a replacement for the £10m Arsenal bound right-back Mathieu Debuchy, Kazinform refers to theguardian.com .

Newcastle's manager also hopes to sign Emmanuel Rivière, the Monaco striker, for around £4m before his squad fly to New Zealand for a pre-season tour at the end of this week. The powerful 24-year-old scored 45 goals in 158 Ligue 1 appearances. With the midfielders Rémy Cabella, Siem de Jong and Jack Colback already recruited from Montpellier, Ajax and Sunderland respectively this summer and the forward Ayoze Pérez bought from Tenerife, Pardew will aim to sign one more striker this summer following Rivière's pending acquisition.
