Mick Brown, the former chief scout of Manchester United and an expert on matters regarding football transfers, has claimed that Newcastle United will only sign Antoine Semenyo from Bournemouth at a price that suits them.
The Magpies are looking to strengthen their wide positions after an underwhelming summer transfer window.
They have started the season well with Anthony Gordon shining for them but they would have wanted to be in a better position than they are at the moment.
Despite their careful spending in the summer, they have managed to get some positive results this season and sit comfortably in the top half of the league table.
Semenyo from Bournemouth is one of the players Newcastle and a number of other clubs are looking at.
Brown has confirmed that Eddie Howe’s team are looking at the in-form Premier League attacker but they will have to consider other factors before signing him.
He told Football Insider:
“I watched Semenyo while he was on loan at Newport.
“He’s strong, purposeful, great on the ball and willing to run at his man.
“But he was one of those players where he would come explosively into the game and then gradually drop off and become less effective.

“They want to do a deal for a new right-winger – but it will depend on the price.”
