Breaking information on Sunday – Newcastle agree £20m deal as new Kelly claims emerge

It appears to be like like Newcastle United will financial institution much more than we initially anticipated for Lloyd Kelly.

Final evening, Fabrizio Romano reported {that a} verbal settlement was reached over a loan-to-buy deal that may see Juventus pay £15m for the defender this summer time.

Nevertheless, some breaking information on Sunday afternoon from two north east reporters suggests we’ve now agreed a good higher deal for the 26-year-old.

In line with Craig Hope at The Mail, The Telegraph’s Luke Edwards and Sky Sports activities’ Keith Downie, Juventus will now pay £20m for Lloyd Kelly.

They report that, together with a mortgage settlement that can ship him to Italy for the second half of the season, there’s a £20m obligation to make the switch everlasting in the summertime.

Kelly has now been given permission to journey to Turin, the place he’ll now bear a medical forward of a transfer to the Serie A giants.

David Ornstein of The Athletic has additionally confirmed the deal goes forward, regardless of doubts earlier immediately that there wasn’t a complete settlement between the 2 golf equipment.

To signal Kelly on a free and instantly make £20m within the following switch window is sensible from a PSR perspective, particularly as he’ll be on fairly huge wages.

Hopefully Kelly settles in Italy and will get the sport time he was missing on Tyneside. All the very best, Lloyd!
