Exceptional” Bournemouth bid for “superb” winger could “happen very quickly”
Newcastle United’s move to land their second signing of the summer could reportedly “happen very quckly” if they present an “exceptional offer” in the coming weeks.
Newcastle transfer news
The Magpies have already announced Eddie Howe’s first arrival of the summer in the form of Lloyd Kelly and have already been linked with more incomings. Kelly represents wise business from those at St James’ Park, given that the defender arrived for free following the expiry of his Bournemouth contract at the end of the season.
Handing Howe some much-needed defensive cover, Kelly could quickly become an important part of his squad.
Away from Kelly’s arrival, Newcastle have been linked with moves for the likes of Crysencio Summerville and Michael Olise in two deals that would offer them instant upgrades on Miguel Almiron, whose Tyneside future has been in doubt in recent months.
As the Magpies look to comply with the Premier League’s profit and sustainability rules, he could be among those sacrificed.
The Premier League side are reportedly wooing the Bundesliga man alongside Aston Villa, Bayern Munich, Bayer Leverkusen, Stuttgart, Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig.
A man in demand, Mainz would only accept an “exceptional offer” for their winger in what could see things move very quickly. That said, it’s currently unsure whether Newcastle are willing to submit such an offer this summer.
