Newcastle's pursuit of Burnley goalkeeper was rejected

It is reported that Newcastle United's pursuit of Burnley goalkeeper James Trafford was hindered, and the Magpies' offer was rejected by the new Premier League team. Eddie Howe's team has long been associated with the Burnley No. 1 goalkeeper. Last season, Trafford completed an astonishing 29 clean sheets in 45 Championship games. He conceded only 16 goals during Burnley's upgrade. The England goalkeeper has two years to contract with Burnley, but the club is facing a tough challenge to keep him. However, according to British media reports, Burnley has rejected Newcastle's £25 million offer (including additional terms) for the 22-year-old goalkeeper, and the two sides are still very different on the goalkeeper's valuation. However, Newcastle has agreed with the players on personal terms. If Trafford joins St. James Park, he will become the only goalkeeper in Newcastle under the age of 30. The youngest goalkeeper on the team is 31-year-old Odysseys Vrahodimos.

Newcastle will sign the Scottish Super League Nova

However, the Magpies' transfer market is not all bad news. Rangers' young forward Alfie Hutchinson is reportedly heading to northern England. Born in 2009, Hutchinson joined the Rangers Youth Training Academy from Harts last summer and performed well in the Scottish youth level competition. Currently, he has not made his debut for the Rangers first team and appears to be leaving Ibrox Stadium without getting an adult team appearance. British media also said that the emerging striker will join St. James Park and Newcastle has reached an agreement with the Soviet Super League giants. Hutchinson is scheduled to officially join the Magpies team that competes in the Champions League on July 1. It is reported that he has passed the physical examination and agreed to sign a long-term contract.

Fenebache is interested in Ronaldo's teammate

It is reported that Riyadh victorious striker John Duran may be attracted by Fenerbache coached by Jose Mourinho and return to European football. The former Aston Villa striker joined Riyadh in the transfer window in January this year and became teammates with Cristiano Ronaldo and others, for which the Saudi team paid a transfer fee of up to £65.8 million. According to statistics, Duran performed well in the first few months of Riyadh victory, with the Colombian player making 18 appearances for Saudi professional league giants and scoring 12 goals. But according to British media reports, Duran is preparing to leave the Middle East and return to Europe, and Fenerbahce is "full push" to introduce him to the Turkish Premier League. It is reported that Riyadh victory has formulated an emergency plan. If Duran leaves the team, the Saudi team will try to sign Leverkusen's Victor Bonifas. In January this year, Bonifas had been closely linked with Riyadh victory with Duran, but the club eventually chose the Colombia international. Duran previously scored 12 goals in Aston Villa's 55 Premier League games.
