According to recent reports, Newcastle is ready to strengthen its interest in Ekitike with a substantial offer. The club is willing to make a record-breaking bid to acquire the player.
The proposed bid, reportedly worth £86 million, would be a new record for Newcastle United. This significant investment is a result of the club's efforts to strengthen its squad after missing out on the signing of Joao Pedro, who chose to join Chelsea instead of the Toon.
It is essential to note that the club's sources emphasize that Ekitike's arrival would be to complement the existing squad, particularly Alexander Isak, rather than to replace him.
As negotiations continue, fans and followers are eagerly waiting to see if Newcastle's bid will be successful and if Ekitike will join the team to contribute to their future success.
Although the details of the bid are not yet confirmed, one thing is clear – Newcastle United is pushing to bring in top talent to enhance its chances in the upcoming season.
