Hello, Newcastle fans! This is the English reporter Gary Lineker, live from the streets of Newcastle with some hot news that will surely excite all of you.
According to the legendary transfer reporter Fabrizio Romano, and confirmed by my sources here in England, Milan is about to close a major deal. They've agreed to personal terms with Strahinja Pavlović from Red Bull Salzburg, which could make way for a strategic move by our Newcastle United.
Milan is reinforcing its defense, and this might mean the departure of one of its most promising defenders, Malick Thiaw. I've spoken with some well-placed sources, and it seems Newcastle has already contacted Milan and the representatives of the 22-year-old German player.
Thiaw had an impressive season with 30 appearances for Milan in the 2023-24 season, along with earning his third call-up to the German national team. He helped the Italians finish second in Serie A and reach the quarter-finals of the Europa League. More than that, Thiaw was on the field during the 0-0 draw with our Newcastle in the Champions League group stage, remember that?
With Lloyd Kelly already confirmed as a new addition from AFC Bournemouth, manager Eddie Howe is focused on further strengthening our defensive line. Currently, we have Kelly, Dan Burn, and Fabian Schar, but with Sven Botman and Jamaal Lascelles recovering from serious injuries, the potential arrival of Thiaw would be a significant relief for our defense.
