According to reports, Newcastle United fear summer target Michael Olise has his heart set on a move to Manchester United.
Jacque Talbot at FootballTransfers claims the Crystal Palace winger is a top target for Eddie Howe, but it’s thought he would snub a move to St James’ Park in favour of Old Trafford, with the 22-year-old being a boyhood Man Utd fan.
The Telegraph’s Luke Edwards has similar information on Olise, revealing that Jarrod Bowen is currently under serious consideration as Toon chiefs fear the Eagles star is likely to end up in Manchester following INEOS’ long-term interest.
He’d be an incredible signing for the club, especially if his release clause is just shy of the £60m reported, but the club may be wise to reluctantly look elsewhere if he doesn’t fancy a move to the North-East.
Wolves’ Pedro Neto has also been linked, Bilbao’s Nico Williams is another name we’ve been watching and there’s been plenty of calls for us to pursue Brentford’s Bryan Mbeumo, who we wrote about in a piece earlier this week.
Told Man Utd in pole position to sign Palace’s Michael Olise, who is likely to snub any approach from Newcastle in favour of his boyhood club. The 22yo is believed to be a major target for Ineos, though deal may not come to fruition for a while yet.https://t.co/CLEfKpyzwZ
