Newcastle United has reportedly received information indicating the possibility of securing Nice defender Jean-Clair Todibo in a transfer deal for a fee of £40 million.
Newcastle United is said to be on the verge of finalizing a transfer deal for Nice defender Jean-Clair Todibo at a reported cost of £40 million.
The French international has established himself as a reliable presence in Ligue 1, attracting interest from clubs such as Manchester United and Chelsea.
Despite the competition, Newcastle is reportedly in a favorable position, with Todibo available for a seemingly affordable fee of £40 million, according to the Mirror. This potential acquisition could address NUFC’s need to bolster their defensive depth in the near future.
While Todibo presents a promising option for Newcastle’s backline, there’s also a pressing concern for a midfield signing to cover the absence of the suspended Sandro Tonali. Kalvin Phillips has emerged as one of the names linked with a potential move to the Magpies, indicating a dual focus on defensive and midfield reinforcements for Newcastle United.
