TRANSFERS 2 players Newcastle United want as they look to invade relegated Leicester City
Champions League-bound Newcastle United have reportedly identified two key players from relegated Leicester City to snatch this summer.
The Portuguese forward, who had intended to stay at Chelsea, is now in a precarious situation as a result of the new manager's decision. The 23-year-old fell out with manager Diego Simeone which led to his loan move to Chelsea in January with the Spanish club already looking to replace him.
His loan spell with Chelsea failed to impress new manager Pochettino so he decided to do away with the Portuguese.
No interest declared yet by Newcastle
Newcastle United are yet to declare any interest in Joao Felix after he was offered to them by Atletico Madrid.
One of the stumbling blocks that could put Newcastle away is his wages and manager Eddie Howe has said that “We're not huge players of wages in the Premier League, so the big clubs will all dwarf us in terms of that. That makes it hard to attract the very, very best players on the market.”
