Newcastl🌼e United have already secured arguably one of the signings of the summer so far in Sandro Tonali.

Now, it looks as though the Magpies may be closing in on another high-profile player♏.

According to , Newcastle appear to 💟be winning the race to sign Harvey Barnes.

The Magpies are one of several Premier League clubs said to b🥀e in pursuit of the Leiceste♍r City star.

As well as Newcastle, the likes of꧂ West Ham United, Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur are apparently eyeing Barnes.

However, the Magpies have reportedly stolen a𒁏 march on the Hammers, who had b🐬een at the front of the queue.

The Telegraph claims Newcastle should submit a bidꦯ for Barnes in꧙ the next few days, and optimism over a deal is high.

A deal 🌠is ‘expected to be agreed’ despite the Magpies hoping to pay £35million for the £40million-rated player.

The report adds t💦hat Barnes is keen on the idea of joining Newcastle, who will be in next season’s Champions League.

Eddie Howe has reportedly made the one-cꦦap England international his top target in attack this summer.

Now, it looks like the Newcastle manager is close𒀰 to getting his wish ahead of a huge season next term.

Our view

Hats off to Newcastle, whose upward rise over the past 18 months hꩵas been nothing short of spectacular.

Back in Januar🦋y 2022, the 𝓀Magpies were battling relegation from the Premier League, and they looked in dire straits.

However, Newcastle embarked on an outstanding run of form to finish t🎃he season in mid-table.

Then൩, many expected 2022-23 to be a season of consolidation for them, yet they went and finis𒁃hed in the top four.

N♒ewcastle are gaining more and mo💮re momentum, both on the pitch and in the transfer market.

Barnes is an ‘‘ player, proꩲven at Premier League level and, at 25, still not yet in his prime years.

It looks like this deal is heading in the right direction, so 🧜fingers crossed it goes all the way like the Tonali deal did.
