Newcastle have been linked with prolific Dutch striker Myron Boadu since this past February. The 19-year-old has had a breakout season for AZ Alkmaar in the Eredivisie bagging 20 goals in all competitions while adding 13 assists.
In March, just before the coronavirus brought football to a screeching halt, a report claimed that Alkmaar would allow Boadu to leave if they received an offer of £18m.
A report from Italy claims that the Boadu’s agent, the infamous Mino Raiola, is shopping the striker around for an even lower fee of between £13.5-16.5m.
According to the report, Raiola is trying to tempt AC Milan into launching a bid for the Dutch international, who still has three years left on his contract with Alkmaar.
AC Milan are reportedly close to appointing former RB Leipzig manager Ralf Rangnick to replace Stefano Pioli this summer.
Milan will be looking to bring in a striker or two with Zlatan Ibrahimovic only contracted until June. No decision on the Swede’s future has been made yet.
Milan also sold former Newcastle target Krzysztof Piatek to Hertha Berlin in January. So if Ibrahimovic ends up elsewhere, they’ll only have Rafael Leao on the books from this year’s squad though they do have several strikers out on loan currently.
There’s a lot of upheaval going on in Milan at the moment so it may not be the best landing spot for the up and coming striker.
So if our prospective new ownership group rate Boadu, hopefully, they’ll have a chance to move for him this summer.

On salaries and transfer fees, think we will find covid19 has essentially reduced salaries that will be paid to players signing for new clubs. Transfer fees will also be reduced

Comment #74JP I totally agree. If the takeover happens we’ll have enough funds to bring in some quality coaches, sign a bunch of young talent, take the risk of a couple of them not developing but hopefully have enough come through that within a few years we have a team that is hitting their peak and are already gelled and drilled to the tactics being played.
It’s all well and good having talented individuals, but it’s every bit as important to make sure those individuals work for the team, and that they are the right players for the tactics being played. Realistically, we won’t be able to buy 10+ world class players in the first window. I’d much rather we were going after young talent than the likes of Cavani. Yes, he’s proven but he’s got a year or sp.left before he’s a liability on a huge wage. Raid the many quality young players in places like South America and Eastern Europe for raw young talent, and make sure they have top-class coaches around them. That’s how you build long-term success.
