Newcastle United reportedly line up Brighton forward Joan Pedro’s sensational summer moves, according to Sky Sports News.
The 23-year-old Brazilian has been attracting great interest after an impressive season with the Amex, and the Magpie is considered to be one of the frontlines competing for his signature that could become one of the summer headline relocations.
This interest comes as Newcastle is trying to significantly strengthen their team before the 2025/26 campaign.
Newcastle hopes for more team depth next season
EddieHou, who secured his return to the UEFA Champions League and lifted his first major trophy by winning the first Carabao Cup in 70 years, is planning an ambitious summer based on this momentum.
The club is no longer hampered by profit and sustainability rules (PSR) or financial fair play (FFP) restrictions, so a substantial budget is available for transfers.
Joining Brighton from Watford in 2023, Pedro quickly established himself as one of the most exciting young offensive talents in the Premier League.
Worried about Newcastle’s first choice attacker, Alexander Isaac, interested in the service of first choice attacker, and the impending departure of Callum Wilson this summer, the Magpie is ready to move for the new attacker.
Magpies have financial means to spend their time large
Newcastle hopes their projects and Champions League football can shake up the Brazilian decision that may reserve time for playing at St. James Park due to Isaac’s presence.
Brighton attacker Pedro is reportedly valued at £100 million by the Premier League.
Their new financial freedom and growing status in European football make the club a good place to make a statement in the transfer window, but it remains to be seen how willing they will spend on the Brighton Star.
Howe’s side is also interested in the moves of Manchester City midfielder Jack Grelish this summer.
