Manchester United, Newcastle join the race to sign €30m La Liga ace

Posted by

Real Betis midfielder Nabil Fekir has been linked with a move away from the Spanish club at the end of the season.

A report from Fichajes claims that the Spanish club are willing to sell the player at the end of the season for a fee of around €30 million.

Apparently, three Premier League clubs are keen on signing the former World Cup winner.

Manchester United, Newcastle United, and Leicester City are all keeping tabs on the 29-year-old French international.

The Red Devils are looking to bring in more depth and quality in the final third and Erik ten Hag has always liked the French midfielder.

Meanwhile, Newcastle need to add more creativity to their side and Fekir could prove to be a quality acquisition. The Frenchman can operate as a central attacking midfielder as well as a winger. Furthermore, his ability fromset pieces will add a new dimension to the Newcastle attack.

Finally, Leicester City are expected to lose James Maddison at the end of the season and the Foxes will have to bring in a quality replacement.

The French midfielder was linked with a move to Liverpool a few years ago and it remains to be seen whether he can secure a transfer to the Premier League this time around.

The opportunity to join Newcastle and Manchester United will probably be a lot more tempting compared to that of Leicester. The two clubs could secure Champions League qualification at the end of the season and they have the financial resources to offer Fekir a lucrative deal as well.
