Newcastle contact, negotiate Harvey Barnes future

Newcastle are targeting Leicester as a potential market, to realize their ambition of becoming a force in English football.

After James Maddison and Youri Tielemans, Newcastle have begun talks with Leicester about the future of Harvey Barnes.

Football Insider reports that Newcastle will do everything they can to sign Harvey Barnes, a versatile attacker.

Leicester's decline has prompted Harvey Barnes to consider a move away. The 25-year-old wants to play consistently in European competition to compete for a place in the England squad, aiming for EURO 2024 and the 2026 World Cup.

Leicester are not willing to let Harvey Barnes go easily. Newcastle may have to pay £50m to complete the deal.

Declan Rice and West Ham have more than a year left on their contract

The ambition to bring Jude Bellingham back to England is not easy, so Liverpool switched their priority to upgrading their midfield to Declan Rice.

Although Arsenal were once highly rated for the possibility of buying Declan Rice, until now nothing has been certain.

Liverpool have therefore entered the race in the hope of convincing the West Ham star to move to the city on the banks of the River Mersey.

Declan Rice is a complete midfielder, suitable for the requirements of coach Jurgen Klopp. He has proven himself with the England team at EURO 2020 and World Cup 2022.

Declan Rice's contract with West Ham has just over a year left. In case it cannot be extended, the London club will be forced to sell their 24-year-old star.

Ruben Neves does not want to extend Wolves contract

According to British media, MU has a big advantage in the race to sign midfielder Ruben Neves in the summer transfer window.

Ruben Neves does not want to extend his contract with Wolves and has entrusted his agent Jorge Mendes to find a suitable new destination.

Jorge Mendes has ruled out Ruben Neves joining Barcelona, who are looking for a successor to Sergio Busquets. The Portuguese is also keen to continue playing in English football.

MU and Arsenal are currently the two teams most likely to sign Ruben Neves. MU is considered to have a higher chance of winning.

Joining MU helps Ruben Neves have a higher chance of playing in the starting lineup, when Fred and McTominay's futures are uncertain. On the contrary, Arsenal's midfield is quite crowded.
