Newcastle offer for 11-goal winger deemed ‘ridiculous’ as Magpies eye double swoop
Newcastle United are assessing their options now the summer transfer window is open and while there are multiple names being linked to a St James’ Park switch, some existing players are also being lined up for potential departures.
The Magpies have wasted no time in kicking off their summer as Lloyd Kelly will arrive at the club on July 1st from Bournemouth on a free deal. Newcastle will reunite Kelly with Eddie Howe following their time at the Vitality Stadium together. The defender has agreed terms with Newcastle and will officially make the move once his terms with the Cherries expire at the end of the month.
July 1st is also expected to be the date that Newcastle finalise Lewis Hall’s permanent move from Chelsea. The 19-year-old enjoyed a successful spell on loan at St James’ Park last season and the club have now triggered the performance-related criteria to start the full-time switch for an initial £28 million fee.
