Newcastle have been linked with a shock double move for Ronaldo and Antonio Cassano.The Real Madrid duo have both fallen out with Italian boss Fabio Capello, who has made it clear he's keen to offload the strikers during the transfer window and the Magpies could be ready to swoop. Ronaldo is reportedly available for £5million this month and it now appears the Brazilian star could have played his last game for the club.
However if Glenn Roeder is able to convince Ronaldo to move to St James Park then they will have to pay out wages of at least £90,000 a week while Casano won't come cheap either. The Spanish club's president Ramón Calderón has said: "It seems that Ronaldo is no longer in the coach's plans and that is the way it is.
"There is the possibility of something happening before January 31 and if that happens then we shall see. In regards to Cassano, Capello confirmed he's no longer in his thinking and is soon to be through the exit door of the Bernabeu .
Capello said on Saturday: "Cassano does not enter into my plans."
