Newcastle United are interested in signing the Italian defender Giorgio Scalvini from Atalanta.
According to a report from TEAMtalk, Newcastle are looking to add depth to the defensive unit following Fabian Schar’s injury. The 22-year-old Italian is highly rated across Europe, and Newcastle believe he could be a quality acquisition.
Scalvini has been linked with Tottenham in the past.
Giorgio Scalvini would be a superb addition
Scalvini is considered one of the finest young defensive talents in Italian football right now. It will be interesting to see if Atalanta is prepared to sanction his departure. Newcastle have been keeping tabs on his development, and they have done a lot of work behind the scenes.
It will be interesting to see if they follow up on their interest with an official proposal to get the deal done. The young defender could be attracted to the idea of moving to the Premier League, especially if they are prepared to offer him regular opportunities.
Newcastle have an ambitious project and a quality team. They are competing in the UEFA Champions League, and they could be an attractive destination for talented players like Scalvini.
Newcastle need top talents like Scalvini
Newcastle will be hoping to compete with top teams regularly, and they need to improve the squad. The defensive unit needs improvement. They have looked mediocre at the back this season. Signing one of the best young defensive talents around could prove to be a wise decision.
However, Atalanta will not want to lose a talented young player like him easily. He is an important part of their future, and he will cost around £35 million. It remains to be seen whether Newcastle is prepared to pay the asking price for him. They are one of the wealthiest clubs around, and they have the resources to get the deal done.
we need to buy a centre half now as we will loose our next 6 games. get rid of 4 or 5 of the fringe players and spend now. we also need a holding midfielder as we.only have Tonali that tracks back and he is playing poorly at this time. it is staring you in the face what we need . move now or we will pay really badly in next 6 to 8 games.
Think the toon should pay what ever it takes to get Scalvini we need defensive reinforcements specially now Livramento is gonna b out for a good few weeks. Plus we need to rotate the squad as we are still fighting on all 3 competitions and premier league. I always think we need to just pay the price and stop trying to get the cheapest deal, we always lose out with our top targets doing it that way.
