We’ve heard this before, but it sounds like Newcastle United are finally closing in on the signing of Marc Guehi.
Sami Mokbel – The Mail’s chief reporter who has been covering the Guehi saga for several weeks now – reports that the centre-back’s future will be ‘resolved in the next 48 hours’, with there now a ‘significant chance’ that Newcastle’s latest formal offer will be accepted by Crystal Palace after discussions on Monday.
It’s believed we are now in ‘advanced talks’ over a deal worth £70m and that an agreement is close, meaning it could now be up to Guehi himself to agree personal terms and commit to a move to St James’ Park. It’s been previously reported that the 24-year-old is keen on the move and that wages will not be a problem, so it seems like a goer if we finally agree a fee.
Crystal Palace play Norwich tonight in the Carabao Cup. Knowing Newcastle’s ambitions to win a trophy, I don’t think we will be dropping £70m on a cup-tied Marc Guehi, so it’ll be a telling sign if he’s missing from their squad later on.
