Newcastle United are actively exploring alternative targets to Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi, as negotiations to acquire him have proven challenging. After the Eagles sold Joachim Andersen, convincing Palace to accept their offer may become even more difficult, as Guehi's importance to the team is underscored by him wearing the captain’s armband in their first matches this season despite the team's poor start, which has prompted Newcastle to consider other potential center-back options.
RB Leipzig's Mohamed Simakan has emerged as a significant alternative for Newcastle United, with the club reportedly making an enquiry regarding the defender's availability. While Simakan, a promising 24-year-old with a growing reputation, possesses a £65 million release clause, this is not far off from what Newcastle has negotiated for Guehi. With Simakan's solid performances in the Bundesliga where he has featured prominently this season, he represents a viable option for strengthening Newcastle's defense.
