‘It will happen’ £65 million star ‘WILL JOIN’ Newcastle before close of transfer window

Clinton Morrison has claimed that England defender Marc Guehi will join Newcastle United before the transfer window closes, despite all the speculation that Crystal Palace are asking for far too much money.

The Magpies have opened talks with Crystal Palace for Guehi after the Englan defender impressed many last season for his performances with Palace – and then with England at the European Championships.

Newcastle have not done the business that they would have liked to do this transfer window – but are keen to improve that back-line in the coming days and Guehi is the man that they reportedly wants to sign.

And Morrison feels that Guehi will become a Newcastle United player soon – He said on Sky Sports: “He will be at Newcastle next week, 100%.

“Marc Guehi will be a Newcastle player next week. I think it will happen. It will definitely happen. That’s my opinion – 100% it will happen. They’re not miles apart.

“That’s Eddie Howe’s No.1 target, he didn’t have anyone else in mind. He said to his board, ‘go and get Marc Guehi’. He’s got two years left at Palace. To try and get something like £70m for Marc Guehi, I think he’d be fantastic.”

And ahead of his potential move to the Toon – Tony Cascarino recently discussed the deal. and claimed that he will be a very good signing for Newcastle – He said on talkSPORT’s Weekend Breakfast: “Botman had his injuries last year, they’ve got Schar in there, they’ve got Burn and Lascelles who had injuries.

“So, it’s a great opportunity if it comes around. I don’t think it will get to the fee that had been talked about.

“Man United have pulled out. Liverpool seem to have lost interest as it’s not as big of a need with Quansah coming through.

“So it would be a great opportunity for him.

“Crystal Palace fans must be pulling their hair out because the moment get a side with lots of exciting players, you see them go.”

If the reports are true and Guehi is going to Newcastle – it will be a very good move for the man to make as he would be joining a side that has big ambitions of challenging for trophies and playing in the Champions League.

There are some big clubs linked – but a move to Newcastle could be the idea move to make at this stage of his career.
