The last few days have been very eventful for Newcastle FC from a transfer perspective. From actively following Marc Guehi as the ideal center-back reinforcement and looking for alternatives in case his deal fails, the Magpies have been much more active recently in the summer transfer window. Moreover, recent reports comply with the above, suggesting the club is considering two senior players's futures.
Newcastle United receives significant interest for two senior players
According to recent reports of iNews, a club insider has conveyed that the final two weeks are going to be 'frantic' for the Magpies club regarding both player signings and sales. While the club is actively progressing in signing a high-profile center-back, the report has suggested some important updates regarding the club's potential sales.
The report suggests that Newcastle would be open to hearing offers for some senior players at the club, with the names of Miguel Almiron and Kieran Trippier being the most prominent ones. Significant interest from MLS side Charlotte FC was shown for Almiron, and while the deal reached a verbal agreement, the Paraguayan winger pulled out due to wage demands.
According to sources, Saudi clubs have shown considerable interest in Almiron and Trippier, but nothing seems certain whether the duo would accept a move or reject it. However, Eddie Howe being aware of the duo's utility and being part of an important group of senior players, a deal looks less significant this summer.
However, nothing can be said with certainty as Miguel Almiron and Kieran Trippier didn't feature for a single moment in the season opener against Southampton, and this might be an indication of the duo's future. In case the Middle East clubs arrive with irrefutable offers, it would be difficult for the Magpies to decide.
Though the rumors are still in the preliminary stages, the possibility of Miguel Almiron and Kieran Trippier can't be ruled out in the final stages of the summer transfer window.
