Newcastle United is set to make a major statement in the transfer market, with Jacob Ramsey being signed from Aston Villa in a deal worth around £40 million.
According to Transfer News specialist Fabrizio Romano, the agreement between the two Premier League clubs is almost complete, leaving only the final details where the iron is left before the move is officially confirmed.
Romano reports that a £40 million package structure has been agreed in principle, with both clubs finalizing their final contract elements.
Once they’re resolved, the move will be given a green light and Ramsey will become a Newcastle United player.
Newcastle United approaches Jacob Ramsey’s signature
This summer, it will be a key signature for Magpies, who have struggled in the transfer market.
Defeating targets like Joao Pedro, Bryan Mbeumo, Benjamin Sesko, Eddie Howe and his recruitment team, he was able to make a breakthrough to sign players who were versatile and promised in spells at Villa Park.
Ramsey provides energy in the middle with pace and ball carry ability. He is trying to act as a bridge between defense and attack, and along with players like Sandro Tonali and Bruno Guimares, he will become an important asset for the Magpie.
West Ham also expressed interest in the villa midfielder
While West Ham United was one of those who took a concrete approach, Ramsey’s preferences were clear throughout the process, he wants Newcastle.
Players are excited by the Magpie project under Hau, their ambitions in both domestic and European competitions, and the opportunity to play a central role in the midfield.
A deal now said to be “immediate” by Romano allowed Newcastle fans to quickly welcome one of England’s brightest young midfielders to St. James Park.
Agreed: Newcastle United approaches signing former Liverpool player
