Athletic: Newcastle want a right-sided CB – Milan man among those ‘tracked’

In recent weeks, Newcastle United have been

looking to AC Milan again for additions to their

squad, and a report has suggested they have

‘tracked’ a player in their quest to find another

central defender. Milan‘s lack of central

defenders was one of their

main problems the previous season. They are

already trying to address this in the current

transfer window, with at least one acquisition

anticipated, but that may alter because of an

ongoing experiment. However, if the Rossoneri

lose a player, that one addition might turn into

two, making the squad appear extremely thin in

that area and forcing the managemen

has “tracked” Malick Thiaw, according to The

Athletic. The Magpies may try again with a

different target after their initial attempts to

recruit Fikayo Tomori were unsuccessful.

The 22-year-old central defender matches the

profile and age that they are probably hoping to

sign. Although there have been doubts about the

two teams’ relationship—particularly in the

will have a price in mind, and Newcastle must

reach it if they wish to sign the player.
