After Alex Song's decision to leave for Barcelona, the gap left in the London club could be filled by Cheick Tiote, the English press reports.
According to reports, the capital team officials are ready to offer almost 20 million euros for the Newcastle player. This is slightly less than the amount received for Song, who signed a contract with Barcelona.
Tiote has been playing in England for two years and is considered one of the most reliable midfielders. It is speculated that the 26-year-old Ivory Coast national team member could be tempted by the opportunity to test himself in the UEFA Champions League.
However, not long ago Tiote claimed to be happy in Newcastle.
