Newcastle considering shock £40m sale as Liverpool eye summer move – The Telegraph
Some big claims emerged from The Telegraph’s Luke Edwards last night, who reports that Newcastle United could now sell Yankuba Minteh after huge early interest in the winger.
The report states that we’re ‘reluctantly considering a host of offers’ for the 19-year-old following his impressive loan spell at Feyenoord, revealing that Liverpool are one of several clubs who have made their interest known, along with unnamed sides in Germany and Italy.
Liverpool’s interest makes sense given former Feyenoord boss Arne Slot has replaced Jurgen Klopp at Anfield. It’s believed the 45-year-old Dutchman feels Minteh has the potential to ‘become one of the best young forwards in Europe’, having worked with the Gambian during his 11-goal season in Rotterdam last term.
Edwards reports that any bids in the region of £40m could be accepted to help us comply with Premier League profit and sustainability rules (PSR) and help fund summer moves of our own.
