"Negotiations with Newcastle, where the 25-year-old England international is under contract until the summer of 2030, are likely to prove more difficult. The Magpies are reportedly demanding nearly €90 million for the player, whose current market value is €45 million. This sum is simply too high for those in charge at Säbener Straße, whose maximum acceptable offer is said to be €70 million."
"What could complicate the transfer: When Nick Woltemade moved from VfB Stuttgart to Newcastle last summer for approximately 75 million euros, Bayern Munich's supervisory board chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge commented: "I can only congratulate those in Stuttgart for finding, I'll say it in quotation marks, an idiot who paid so much money." Words that still resonate in Newcastle and could prove costly for Bayern."
Negotiations with Newcastle are expected to be difficult for a 25-year-old England international contracted until summer 2030. Newcastle is reportedly seeking nearly €90 million, while the player’s current market value is €45 million. Bayern Munich’s leadership is said to have a maximum acceptable offer of €70 million, making the reported asking price too high. The situation could be complicated by Newcastle’s recent spending behavior. When Nick Woltemade moved from VfB Stuttgart to Newcastle last summer for about 75 million euros, Karl-Heinz Rummenigge criticized the transfer cost, and the remark still resonates in Newcastle and could affect Bayern’s approach.
