Newcastle transfer news: Magpies ‘close in’ on triple deal including Arsenal’s Nketiah | Football | Sport
Nketiah would be the second Arsenal youngster to tread a path to the north east in recent times, with Joe Willock making the same switch during the summer.
So far this season, Nketiah has bagged five goals in all competitions, with all of them coming in the Carabao Cup.
Despite having an initial bid rejected, Newcastle are also reported to be in with a good chance of signing 6ft 7in Dan Burn before Monday’s deadline.
The 29-year-old is supposedly keen to return to the north east, having grown up in Northumberland, and the Magpies have been led to believe that another bid would be welcomed by the Seagulls.
