Newcastle zündet den Transfer-Turbo – 150 Millionen für drei Stars?
Die Sommerpause in der Premier League war für Newcastle United bisher erstaunlich ruhig. Doch damit könnte jetzt Schluss sein: Die Magpies wollen in diesem Transferfenster offenbar richtig angreifen – und planen gleich drei spektakuläre Deals im Gesamtwert von rund 150 Millionen Euro.
Nach Rang fünf in der abgelaufenen Saison ist Newcastle zurück in der Champions League. Die erhofften Millionen-Einnahmen aus der Königsklasse sollen direkt wieder in neue Stars investiert werden – um den Verein endgültig im europäischen Spitzenfußball zu etablieren. Laut Telegraph haben die Klub-Bosse dazu gleich drei Angebote abgegeben.
[–>Ganz oben auf der Liste steht João Pedro (23) von Brighton & Hove Albion. Für den variabel einsetzbaren Brasilianer sollen die Magpies rund 60 Millionen Euro geboten haben. Schon 2022 war Pedro Thema bei Newcastle, damals noch als Watford-Spieler. Trainer Eddie Howe (47) gilt als großer Fan des 23-Jährigen, der in der Offensive flexibel einsetzbar ist. Pedro selbst hat offenbar keine Einwände – seine Gehaltsvorstellungen sollen kein Problem sein.
Auch für Anthony Elanga (23) von Nottingham Forest liegt laut englischen Medien ein Angebot in ähnlicher Größenordnung auf dem Tisch. Der 23-jährige Schwede ist auf den Flügeln zu Hause und würde dem Angriff noch mehr Tempo geben. Doch Forest hat bereits abgewunken: Rund 45 Millionen Euro seien zu wenig, die Ablöseforderung soll bei mindestens 70 Millionen liegen.
Anthony Elanga (32) kommt in 82 Pflichtspielen für Forest auf 32 Torbeteiligungen
<!–>
Für Stabilität im Tor will Newcastle zusätzlich James Trafford (22) vom FC Burnley verpflichten. 30 Millionen Euro plus mögliche Boni stehen im Raum. Laut Transferexperte Fabrizio Romano hat der 22-Jährige mit dem Klub schon persönliche Eckdaten geklärt. Jetzt muss man sich nur noch mit Burnley auf eine Ablöse einigen. Trafford soll mit Stammkeeper Nick Pope (33) um den Platz zwischen den Pfosten konkurrieren – ein Luxusproblem, das Coach Howe gerne annimmt.
Howe drückt aufs Tempo!
Die Zeit drängt: Trainer Howe hat klargemacht, dass er bis zum Trainingsauftakt am 7. Juli mindestens zwei Neuzugänge im Kader sehen will. Ein ambitioniertes Ziel, denn bei allen drei Spielern klaffen noch Lücken zwischen Angebot und Forderung. Doch die Tendenz ist klar: Newcastle will und kann tief in die Tasche greifen – und notfalls auch noch mehr investieren.

Bill Belichick’s UNC misses bowl eligibility after trick play by Duke
When Bill Belichick was introduced as UNC head coach 11 long months ago, he revealed, joked or lied that his first words as a child were "Beat Duke."His program fell short of that goal on Saturday, and the result is a disappointing season will officially end next weekend. The Tar Heels lost to Duke 32-25, pushing their record down to 4-7 and leaving them unable to reach bowl eligibility next week against NC State.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementIt wasn't just any loss to their biggest rivals either. At home, UNC had come back from down 24-10 to take a 25-24 lead early in the fourth quarter. That remained the score until the final three minutes, when the Blue Devils lined up for a go-ahead field goal that would have given the Tar Heels the ball back with more than two minutes left and a […]
Washington Spirit vs. Gotham FC, NWSL Championship: Trinity Rodman’s status hangs over title match
Two star-studded teams in the Washington Spirit and Gotham FC will meet in San Jose for the NWSL Championship, a competitive match likely in store as each side chases their second league title, but the big question looms -- will Trinity Rodman play?The pair took contrasting roads to the NWSL Championship, the No. 2 seed Spirit advancing as the favorites in their matchups while Gotham played spoiler as the No. 8 seed, eliminating the runaway NWSL Shield winners in the Kansas City Current and last year's champions Orlando Pride. To describe this as a David vs. Goliath-type game would be a misnomer, though, Gotham have been inconsistent, but they won the Championship just two years ago and boast an MVP nominee in Esther Gonzalez.While Gonzalez and new Gotham recruict Jaedyn Shaw headline Juan Carlos Amoros' team, the attention will also […]
Bills RB Ty Johnson fined $10,777 for pelvic-thrust TD celebration in win over Bucs
The NFL has fined Buffalo Bills running back Ty Johnson $10,777 for "obscene gestures" as part of a crackdown on unsportsmanlike conduct. Johnson did a thrust-heavy celebration after scoring a go-ahead touchdown in the Bills' win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 11.With less than a minute left in the first half, Johnson broke away on third-and-5 to sprint 52 yards for the touchdown. To celebrate, Johnson grabbed his leg, seemingly pretending to have sustained an injury (à la the Kansas City Current's Lo'eau LaBonta), and fell before grinding his pelvis against the ground twice.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementBuffalo went on to win the game, 44-32, behind a six-touchdown night from quarterback Josh Allen.The fine comes a couple of weeks after Carolina Panthers running back Rico Dowdle was fined $14,491 for a similar celebration. Dowdle did "two pumps" (i.e., thrusted his pelvis twice) […]
Kyle Shanahan says Brandon Aiyuk’s guarantees were voided in July: ‘It takes a lot to get a contract voided’
The news that Brandon Aiyuk has likely played his last game for the San Francisco 49ers was a surprise on Friday, but the situation has apparently been simmering for months.Speaking to reporters on Saturday, Niners head coach Kyle Shanahan declined to say what specifically led to a falling out between team and player — there was a report of frustrations over Aiyuk failing to participate in team meetings and other activities — while claiming the contract battle was out of his hands:"I'm not going to get into the specifics of that. There were a number of things from July that, to me, is more of the business side, dealing with lawyers and stuff, and contracts. Stuff that is really not my area of expertise."Aiyuk has spent all season on the physically unable to perform list with a knee injury, which […]
