Newcastle United are seeking revenge after Dan Ashworth’s departure to Manchester United.
While the loss of Ashworth will impact Newcastle off the field and strengthen United, the Magpies are determined to retaliate in the player transfer market.
TEAMtalk reports that Newcastle is in “advanced talks” with United target Tosin Adarabioyo.
Adarabioyo, who has expressed his intention to leave Fulham on a free transfer when his contract expires in the summer, has attracted interest from several clubs.
Tottenham, West Ham United, Chelsea, and now Newcastle will all compete with United for his signature.
Newcastle’s progress in securing Adarabioyo has been impressive, with reports suggesting they aim to finalize the deal next week, leaving their rivals trailing behind.
United, in particular, are in need of central defensive reinforcements after a season plagued by injuries. Adarabioyo could provide a cost-effective solution for United, freeing up funds for other positions.
Although Newcastle is currently leading the race, United still have a chance to swoop in and secure the deal, potentially starting the INEOS era with a bang.
