Newcastle want to sign ‘magnificent’ World Cup winner, they’ve already met with his agents

Newcastle United now reportedly hold an interest in signing Barcelona star Ousmane De👍mbele and they’ve already met with his agents.

Eddie Howe’s men will be hoping to secure their p❀♍lace in the top-four over the coming weeks, despite a disappointing result at Aston Villa on Saturday.

The Mag💙pies currently sit three points clear of fifth-placed Tottenham, ahead of their clash at St James’ Park this weekend.

Of course, Newcastle have been fairly cautious in the transfඣer market over the past year, but securing Champions League football could change their approach.

And reports that Newcastle are now eyeing a move for Ousmane Dembele ahead of the summer.

Newcastle want Dembele

The outlet claims that intermediaries met with ♍Dღembele’s agent during his recent trip to England.

While his visit to the N💟orth East was ‘short’, there has been contact between the 🐼player’s agents and Newcastle, according to 90 Min.

Dembele seems to hওave got his career back on track after a difficult couple of years in Spain.

The🌸 25-year-old has struggled with injuries during his time ℱat the Camp Nou.

He’s managed to register 15 goal involvements in 28 appearances for Xavi’s side thi♉s season though and seemed to be slowly ge🧜tting back to his best before he picked up a hamstring injury back in February.

There’s no doubt that Dembele is a ‘’ talent on his day, but it woul🌞d be a gamble for Newcastle giveꦇn his injury record and inconsistent form.

Indeed, Gary Neville even labelled the winger’s display in the World Cup final last year for France as ‘embarrassing‘.

Yet, the Frenchman has got just under a year left on his current deal, which could tempt the Magpies into a cu🦋t-price mo𝄹ve.
