Newcastle United’s search for attacking reinforcements this summer continues to falter following a rejected offer for Watford ’s Joao Pedro, with the Hornets turning down a first proposal of £20million for the Brazilian forward.
The Magpies were told by the Championship outfit that their initial offer of £20m plus £3m in add-ons did not meet their valuation, before making it clear that Pedro is not for sale under any circumstances this summer.
However, Eddie Howe’s side are now said to be weighing up another formal bid for the Brazilian star as they refuse to back down easily, while it has also been reported that an offer has been prepared for Benfica starlet Goncalo Ramos.
