Newcastle is working on signing a contract with RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Šeško. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
In recent months, it has been revealed that the Slovenian player has attracted interest from London clubs Arsenal, Liverpool, and Manchester United. Currently, Newcastle is considered the main contender for the 22-year-old player.
According to journalist Florian Plettenberg, Newcastle has not yet reached a verbal agreement with RB Leipzig, but is actively negotiating with those around the player. The Transfermarkt portal has valued Šeško at 70 million euros.
Benjamin Šeško's move to Newcastle is dependent on the sale of Alexander Isak. The Swedish player is attracting interest from Liverpool, and they are expected to offer a record sum in English football.
Therefore, the Šeško transfer will depend on the outcome of Isak's sale. Club officials are closely monitoring these processes and a clear decision will be made in the future.
Negotiations with the players are ongoing and the deal may be finalized soon.
