10 goals this season: Everton and Newcastle make enquiries for 24-yr-old attacker
Newcastle and Everton are thought to be looking at the AS Roma striker Patrik Schick this summer. The 24-year-old has had an impressive loan spell in Germany with RB Leipzig and he has scored 10 goals for them despite not starting too often. Roma are keen to cash in on the player and the two Premier League clubs have now made enquiries to sign him according to Il Messaggero.

Newcastle midfielder Matty Longstaff has been linked with a move away from the club this summer. The 20-year-old will be a free agent soon and the Magpies are keen to hold on to his services. However, the player has not signed an extension yet. Manager Steve Bruce has now confirmed that Longstaff’s future is in his own hands now. Bruce claims that the club has made him a ‘wonderful’ offer and the player has reportedly turned it down. He said to Sky Sports: “The ball is in Matty’s hands. I’ve gone public with it; I think we’ve made him a wonderful offer and for me, it should be his way forward in his career. Being a Newcastle lad and having the season he’s just had, it’s his way forward. Of course, we would all love him to stay but, as young as he is, it’s his prerogative. If players want t...

Bruce said (quotes via Chronicle): “Let’s hope he gets fed up with Man City and comes and gives us a hand! That would be terrific one day to have that sort of quality.

‘Don’t think it is going to happen’: Chris Sutton makes a big claim about 23-yr-old’s Newcastle future
Popular pundit Chris Sutton has revealed that Joelinton might not have a long term future at Newcastle United. According to him, the striker has not done enough to justify the outlay on him so far and once the new owners come in, they could look to cash in on the former Bundesliga man. Sutton said (quotes via Express): “I still don’t think it is going to happen for Joelinton. He scored one in four in Germany, he did a similar sort of ratio in Austria and then had one good season at Hoffenheim. “The money has been a massive burden for him. Steve Bruce has given him a kick as well, saying he isn’t a natural finisher. It doesn’t help when your manager is putting the boot in. “I don’t see him having a long-term future at Newcastle. If there’s a takeover, I think he will be surplus to requireme...
Report: Newcastle interested in 25-yr-old linked with Spurs, star would cost £27m
Newcastle United have been linked with a move for the Roma keeper Pau Lopez. The 25-year-old has done well in Serie A this season and Journalist Francesco Balzani claims that the Magpies like the player. It would be strange if Newcastle made a move for Lopez this summer. They have much more pressing concerns and they have a quality keeper in Dubravka. Furthermore, Lopez is doing well at Roma and it is highly unlikely that he would move to Newcastle without any game time assurances. With Dubravka at the club, Newcastle cannot possibly guarantee him regular first-team football. Lopez is at the stage of his career where he wouldn’t want to be a backup option. The transfer seems highly unlikely and it could just be speculation. Darlow and Elliott are expected to leave Newcastle soon and t...
