Jones has 18 months left on his current Liverpool contract, so it could be that it would make sense for them to cash in on him this summer.

Newcastle United and Aston Villa have submitted an offer to sign the Real Madrid defender Dean Huijsen. The talented young defender recently joined Real Madrid from Bournemouth, and the Spanish club has no intention of sanctioning his departure. They will not enter into negotiations with the English clubs, and it remains to be seen whether Newcastle or Aston Villa move on to other targets.
Newcastle United are to take action after a young club mascot was left alone in the middle of the pitch before Saturday's defeat at Liverpool. The girl walked out with the players prior to the 4-1 loss at Anfield and lined up alongside the visitors as they shook hands with Arne Slot's side. But footage from TikTok user @doubleh8596 captures Newcastle's sole mascot being left on her own as the players then rush off to the touchline to hand over their track jackets pre-match.
This was supposed to be the night the streak finally cracked. For 40 minutes, Newcastle were not just competitive; they were the better side. They ran Liverpool ragged, pressed with conviction, countered with purpose, and led with full merit through Anthony Gordon. And then-just as they have done so many times before-they unravelled. The self‑destruction was sudden, dramatic, and utterly predictable.
Malaga are interested in signing Newcastle United midfielder Alfie Harrison. According to Sky Sports, they are hoping to sign the 20-year-old midfielder this month. The player will be out of contract in the summer, and it would be ideal for Newcastle to sell him now rather than lose him for free. That said, they have the option to extend the deal for another year. It remains to be seen whether Newcastle are prepared to take up the opportunity and extend his stay at the club.
The squad emerged from the coach wearing re-released replica away shirts from the 'Entertainers' era, when the Magpies strutted into stadiums up and down the country. But the visitors did not play with quite the same swagger of Kevin Keegan's free-scoring 1995-96 side. In fact, Newcastle did not muster a first shot on target until the 85th minute in a goalless Premier League draw against bottom club Wolves.
Newcastle United are 9th in the Premier League standings and questions are being asked about Eddie Howe's long term future at the club. The Magpies have backed the manager with funding and they expect the team to be in a much better position than they are right now. Howe's team has struggled with consistency throughout the season and although he guided the club to Carabao Cup success last year, he was expected to make progress this season but it has not been the case.
The medical for Vasco da Gama striker Rayan at Bournemouth is reportedly facing delay as the deal drags on despite being near completion. Latest reports suggest Rayan's medical has been delayed, meaning Bournemouth are growing in frustration due to not yet being able to finalise the signing of the Brazilian forward. Newcastle have also been in the hunt for Rayans signature, and it could be that they're working to hijack the deal.
