Newcastle United are currently working on signing Real Betis winger Abe Ezarzurri.
They had hoped to sign Victor Muñoz from Osasuna during the summer transfer window, but the player opted to join Liverpool instead.
TEAMtalk reports that Newcastle have turned their attention to the former Barcelona academy graduate. Abde has had a very impressive season in La Liga and could be an interesting signing for Newcastle.
They need more quality in the side, especially after the departure of Anthony Gordon. The Moroccan player certainly has the technical qualities to succeed in the Premier League and could be an asset for Newcastle. The 24-year-old is highly regarded across Europe and was previously linked with a move to the Premier League.
Abdeh had 15 goals and 13 assists last season. His numbers could improve if he plays on a more offensive team. He is at the peak of his career and could improve even more with coaching and experience. Regular football in England could bring out the best in him.
The report further claims that Newcastle are currently in new negotiations with the player’s agent and are hopeful that a deal will be finalized in the coming weeks. It remains to be seen whether they can convince the Spanish club to sell the player. The 24-year-old is an important player for Real Betis and it would be no surprise if they demanded a premiership from him.
Improving the attack should be a top priority for Newcastle this summer. In addition to wingers, we need to invest in a quality striker.
