They need someone who can add peace and flair to the team. The Belgian performed very well at Ajax, contributing 29 goals to the Dutch team.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">He has the technical qualities to play for a big club and with the right guidance could become a future star. It will be interesting to see if Manchester United decide to make an offer for him. They have the financial power to make a deal and he could command a premium.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Download the official CaughtOffSide app to get all the latest news and updates straight to your phone. above <span role=\"presentation\"><u>apple<\/u><\/span>  &#038; <span role=\"presentation\"><u>Google play<\/u><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Newcastle_also_keep_an_eye_on_Gotts\"><\/span>Newcastle also keep an eye on Gotts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Newcastle United could also show more quality in wide areas. It remains to be seen where the Belgian will end up. He is aiming to play regularly at this stage of his career and should aim to join a club where he starts every week.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">He may have to compete with Matheus Cunha and Brian Mbeumo at Manchester United. Newcastle could offer him further opportunities.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Gotts has shown his quality at Ajax in European competitions and is ready for the next step. A move to the Premier League would be the ideal step up in his career and could accelerate his development.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Meanwhile, Football Insider reports that Manchester United are considering signing a central midfielder and left-back.
