Newcastle United’s summer is shaping up to be one of the most exciting in recent memory.
With Champions League football back on Tyneside, the club is working hard behind the scenes to build a squad ready for Europe.
Eddie Howe’s side ended last season on a high. A top-five finish and a long-awaited Carabao Cup win gave fans memories they’d waited decades for.
But everyone knows next season will be even tougher. One of the biggest priorities is more firepower up front.
Callum Wilson could leave this summer, with interest from Everton and clubs in Saudi Arabia. The club also missed out on Liam Delap, who is now a Chelsea player.
Despite all that, there’s good news for the Magpies. According to The Sun, a massive move could be in the works.
Manchester United star close to joining Newcastle United
Newcastle are in talks over a deal that could be one of the stories of the window. The player is keen on regular minutes and a chance to shine on the biggest stage again.
After a quiet spell and a short loan stint, he now wants a fresh start and Newcastle could be the perfect place.
With Barcelona yet to act on their interest, and Manchester United open to letting him go, all signs point toward one destination. That player is Marcus Rashford.
The 27-year-old England international wants Champions League football and a proper platform to relaunch his career. Newcastle are ready to offer him exactly that.
The Magpies prefer a loan deal, while Manchester United are pushing for a permanent exit. Either way, talks are moving.
Rashford impressed during his time at Aston Villa and is hungry to prove his worth again. This would be a huge signing for Newcastle.
Marcus Rashford is a player with experience, quality, and something to prove, exactly the kind of move that could light up St. James’ Park next season.
