Newcastle have now told player he’ll train with youth team if he doesn’t leave club this summer

A number of players have already been linked with a move away from St James’ Park in the early stages of the window, with the Magpies looking to bring funds in before they invest in Eddie Howe’s squad

Callum Wilson could leave for Saudi Arabia, while Miguel Almiron’s future also has a question mark hanging over it. But it appears that Newcastle are particularly keen to see another sale go through as soon as possible.

Yankuba Minteh may well not get the chance to make his competitive Newcastle debut. Lyon are willing to meet Newcastle’s £40 million asking price for Minteh, while Everton are also keen on the 19-year-old.

According to ESPN, Saudi Pro League side Al Nassr are interested in signing Newcastle United striker Callum Wilson.

It’s thought that Eddie Howe is eager to keep the 32-year-old at the club, however, his current contract complicates things.

With just a year left on his deal, Newcastle don’t want to risk losing him on a free next summer, so now could be the right time to cash in on him.

As such, club chiefs may sanction a sale but only if his valuation is met, otherwise, he’s likely to remain on Tyneside

Atletico Madrid were interested in signing Wilson during the January transfer window but at this stage, it seems they won’t reignite it due to the emergence of Samu Omorodion.
