According to new reports, James Maddison isn’t the only Leicester City star being pursued by Newcastle United.
Tom Collomosse – the Daily Mail’s man in the Midlands – has revealed that we’ve also been in touch with the Foxes about a potential move for Harvey Barnes.
That said, Leicester are said to value the homegrown winger at ‘£50-£60m’, meaning club record bids would have to be submitted if we wished to sign either.
On the subject of potential attacking arrivals, North-East reporter Craig Hope – another journalist at The Mail – has confirmed that we’re in talks with Burnley over versatile forward Maxwel Cornet.
The Ivory Coast international has a £17.5m release clause in his contract, but the Clarets want that to be paid up front – leaving Newcastle to negotiate a deal that may allow us to stagger payments over a period of time.
Cornet, 25, was left out of Burnley’s squad for their opening day win over Huddersfield on Friday night and may be seen as an alternative to Maddison and Barnes, should the English duo prove too expensive.
Delay in purchasing sometimes cause the player to becoming more expensive. Take a look at The Lyon player Paureta which should cost earlier around $40 million now Man city and Arsenal have shown intrest on the player it’s now valued around $ 80 million
