„Newcastle United“ is approaching their third purchase in the transfer window. Journalist Fabrizio Romano announces that „Newcastle“ has reached an agreement with „Lille“ for the acquisition of center-back Sven Botman. F. Romano adds that the transfer fee is expected to be 37 million euros, including bonuses. S. Botman was a key part of „Lille“ team that won the „Ligue 1“ championship, and last season the 22-year-old defender scored 3 goals and provided 1 assist. Dutchman was also sought after by „AC Milan“ club, which ultimately did not reach an agreement with the „Lille“ team. Earlier in this transfer window „Newcastle“ acquired Matt Targett and Nick Pope."
