Newcastle owners willing to spend ‘crazy money’ to beat Man Utd to Marcelo Brozovic move
NEWCASTLE UNITED have been linked with a move for Inter Milan playmaker Marcelo Brozovic ahead of the January transfer window.
Newcastle United are prepared to flaunt their newly-found riches to land Inter Milan midfielder Marcelo Brozovic ahead of the likes of Manchester United and Tottenham, according to reports. The Magpies are widely expected to emerge as the Premier League’s major players in future transfer windows after their lucrative Saudi-backed takeover was finally completed last month.
The likes of Barcelona goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen and Porto winger Luis Diaz have been mentioned in connection with the Magpies as of late.
Brozovic is said to be another name on Newcastle’s radar ahead of next summer, with his Inter contract set to expire at the end of the season.
The 29-year-old is also reportedly being courted by United, while Tottenham boss Antonio Conte is believed to be keen on reuniting with his former player in north London.
They are willing to pay ‘crazy money’ to nip ahead of United and Spurs by bringing the midfielder to St James’ Park, according to The Athletic.
It is claimed that Newcastle are desperate to land Brozovic in order to make a statement and usher in the club’s new era under their wealthy Saudi owners.
Despite this, the Croatian midfielder does not share the same level of enthusiasm given Newcastle’s current position at the foot of the Premier League table.
