Newcastle United has held initial negotiations for a Brazilian gem in an attempt to attract yet another youthful talent after recently announcing the acquisition of Vakhtang Salia.
Newcastle transfer news
St James’ Park supporters should be happy to see Newcastle’s transfer activity increasing in the run-up to 2025, even if it’s only for players who will have an influence years from now. After a terrible summer transfer window, Sporting director Paul Mitchell and his Tyneside transfer squad appear to be attempting to move over the setback, starting with Salia.
The market is extremely competitive since identifying and hiring up-and-coming talent is crucial to creating a sustainable future, especially under the current PSR framework.
“With the goal of acquiring individuals who can progress through our talent pipeline and, ideally, join the first team in the future, we continue to scout widely, both nationally and abroad. We hope Vakhtang has a great remaining time with Dinamo Tbilisi and look forward to working with him.”
But without wasting any time, the sporting director and PIF have turned their attention elsewhere. After preliminary negotiations, Newcastle has finally taken the first step to sign Sao Paulo’s William Gomes, according to Globo Esporte. The 18-year-old is a rising star who might soon make it to St. James’ Park.
“Monster” Gomes could replace Almiron
Gomes, a winger who is poised to become a great star, might be the solution to Newcastle’s Miguel Almiron dilemma. Even though the Brazilian is only eighteen, U23 scout Antonio Mango has already given him high marks, calling the winger a “dribbling monster.”
Of course, at such a young age, Gomes is unlikely to have an immediate impact in Eddie Howe’s squad if he decides to leave Brazil for Newcastle, but he would undoubtedly be a long-term possibility.
Having scored two senior goals for Sao Paulo this season, the teenager is already making an impression on first-team football, earning the attention of Premier League clubs such as Newcastle.
