Newcastle United transfer rumours with fresh Jack Harrison bid and Euro 2020 winner offered

Here are the latest Newcastle United transfer rumours on Saturday, July 23.

Newcastle prepare fresh bid for Harrison

Newcastle United will go back to Leeds with an improved offer for Jack Harrison, according to journalist Ben Jacobs.

Many outlets have reported that Newcastle lodged a bid between £18 million and £25 million for Harrison earlier this week - with Leeds quickly rejecting the approach.

"Told #NUFC will go back to Leeds with improved offer for Jack Harrison," said Jacobs.

"Jesse Marsch really doesn't want to lose him. #LUFC can be tough negotiators now that Raphinha & Kalvin Phillips sold. Around £35m is the price tag to make Leeds even consider a sale & they may demand more."

However, Jacobs has also stated that it will be a 'big ask' for the two clubs to agree a fee, but Newcastle remain hopeful of pulling off a deal.

Italy striker 'offered' to Newcastle

Italy international Andrea Belotti has been offered to Newcastle United, according to The Sun.

The striker has also reportedly been offered to West Ham United and Everton. Borussia Dortmund and Roma are also understood to be possible destinations for the 28-year-old.

Belotti left Torino in the summer after a successful seven-year stint at the club, scoring 113 goals in 251 appearances.

Newcastle are looking to add options at the top end of the pitch - and a striker could well be recruited. Chelsea youngster Armando Broja has been heavily linked with a move to St James' Park.

Depay likely to turn down Newcastle approach

Barcelona forward Memphis Depay is set to turn down any approach from Newcastle United, according to Spanish publication Sport.

The La Liga giants could sell Depay this summer, with the arrivals of Robert Lewandowski and Raphinha causing the former Manchester United winger to drop down the pecking order.

Depay has reportedly already turned down an approach from Tottenham, and is likely to turn down any approach from Newcastle. It's understood that he wants to move to a club where there is a 'project'. The Dutchman scored 13 goals in 37 games for Barcelona last season.
