‘Elusive’ player who Newcastle have discussed signing will cost them at least £60m this summer

Newcastle United have discussed making some very exciting signings this summer, but they will not come cheap.

The Magpies are looking for players who can take them to the next level, and will once again go in search of Champions League qualification next season after missing out on Europe altogether.

To do that, Eddie Howe needs a sprinkling of quality – particularly in the final third. The club have discussed moves for the likes of Jarrod Bowen and Michael Olise, but the feeling is that they will both be too expensive. On top of that, the lack of Champions League football might mean a move for Olise is a non-starter.

Newcastle United have discussed signing Eberechi Eze

Another player who Newcastle have discussed signing is Olise’s Crystal Palace teammate Eberechi Eze, who is set to represent England at Euro 2024 alongside Toon players Anthony Gordon and Kieran Trippier.

Steve Bruce recently claimed that he tried to sign Eze when he was Newcastle United manager, and now the Magpies are once again being linked with the 25-year-old.

Eze dazzled Newcastle fans earlier this week when he represented England at St James’ Park, with lots of supporters wishing they could watch the ‘elusive‘ attacker on a regular basis.
