Newcastle continues to display its ambitions on the transfer market. The Magpies are reportedly interested in Johan Bakayoko.
After the 68 million spent this summer, Newcastle could go on the offensive again this winter. Management is considering recruiting a right winger following the probable departure of Miguel Almiron.
This summer, the club tried to sign Anthony Elanga in the home stretch of the transfer window. Coach Eddie Howe would also have hoped to be able to attract Leroy Sané.
The club was also monitoring Johan Bakayoko closely. According to journalist Graeme Bailey, the Magpies’ interest would still be very real this winter.
You will have to pay the price
Last season, Anthony Gordon performed beyond expectations on the left side, with 11 goals and 10 assists. But on the right, it’s not the same story. Jacob Murphy is struggling to convince and has also lost his starting place.
But manage to recruit Johan Bakayoko from this winter will not be a sinecure: the Red Devil extended with PSV less than a year ago, he is now under contract until June 2026.
