Newcastle United is showing strong intent in the summer transfer market as they work to build a squad capable of competing on all fronts under manager Eddie Howe. The Magpies have already made moves, beginning with the free signing of Spanish winger Antonio Cordero from Malaga.
They’ve also reportedly reached an agreement with Nottingham Forest to sign winger Anthony Elanga, further strengthening their attacking depth. Howe is clearly focused on reinforcing his squad ahead of a demanding season that includes Champions League football.
Now, Newcastle has turned its attention to long-time target Marc Guehi, the highly-rated Crystal Palace and England defender. According to sources, the club is confident it can outmaneuver rivals Liverpool in the race to secure Guehi’s signature.
With increased financial backing and European competition on the horizon, Newcastle is prepared to make a major push for the centre-back, seeing him as a key piece in their long-term defensive plans.
