Newcastle United's hierarchy have been hard at work ensuring Eddie Howe's first-team is well and truly bolstered come the start of the new season. The Magpies are close to confirmed a mega-money deal for Sandro Tonali, while talks remain ongoing for a number of other targets.
But Newcastle's big business will no doubt be impacted by other sides - and German club RB Leipzig currently hold the keys when it comes to the club's interest in Dominik Szoboszlai. The midfielder may leave the Bundesliga outfit this summer with both Howe's side and Liverpool keen to strike a deal.
Leipzig have already started preparing for the loss of Szoboszlai by signing Nicolas Seiwald and Christoph Baumgartner for a combined £45m. They have also persuaded attacking outlet Dani Olmo to sign a new deal with the club and had already completed a deal for Newcastle-linked Benjamin Sesko last summer.
