„Newcastle United“ team continues to seek reinforcement in the defense, but everything is not going so smoothly. Journalist Fabrizio Romano reported that „Lille“ rejected a 35 million euro offer from „Newcastle“ for center-back Sven Botman. Meanwhile, „Sky Sports“ even announces that the French team wants 60 million euros for the 21-year-old Dutchman. S. Botman was a very important part of the team that won the „Ligue 1“ championship title last season. During the successful season, the center-back played 37 league matches, and this season he also looks good, already scoring once and providing an assist. Meanwhile, „Newcastle United“ team is currently approaching at least the acquisition of Kieran Trippier, adds F. Romano.
