DEADLY! 20 GOALS MERCILESS WINGER Now Within Newcastle’s Grasp For Practically HALF PRICE – The Deal That Could DESTROY the Premier League
Newcastle United are actively exploring the transfer market as they look to reinforce Eddie Howe’s squad, and they may now be presented with an opportunity to secure one of their attacking targets at a significantly reduced price.
The Magpies come into this period on the back of a thrilling FA Cup encounter against Bournemouth, a match that once again underlined the competition’s unpredictable nature.
Saturday’s tie proved to be a dramatic affair, with Newcastle finding themselves pushed to the limit by Howe’s former club.
Ultimately, it was Aaron Ramsdale who stole the headlines, producing a heroic display to guide Newcastle safely into the next round.
The victory ensured progress on another front for a side that remains determined to challenge for honours this season, adding further belief that silverware could finally return to the North East.
Speaking after the match, Howe praised his players’ mentality and highlighted the importance of maintaining momentum across multiple competitions.
He suggested that sustained progress in tournaments can be a decisive factor in turning promise into tangible success.
“The result keeps the positive feeling alive,” Howe explained. “We want to carry that momentum through the season.
Reaching two semi-finals last year was an incredible experience for everyone involved. It feels like a great time to be part of Newcastle.
With the Champions League still ahead of us and our run in the League Cup, the desire to win is very strong. There is plenty of reason to feel excited about what lies ahead.”
That sense of ambition is likely to resonate with potential signings, and Newcastle have already been linked with several high-profile names.
Atalanta trio Giorgio Scalvini, Ederson and Honest Ahanor are all reportedly admired at St James’ Park, while Flamengo defender Wesley Franca has also been mentioned as a possible target, highlighting Howe’s intention to strengthen across different areas of the pitch.
However, attention may now be shifting towards another Brazilian talent, one who could arrive for a fee well below his supposed market value following recent developments.
According to Chronicle Live, Newcastle are closely monitoring Vasco da Gama forward Rayan and believe a deal could be struck for around £20 million, despite the player having a release clause set at an eye-watering £69 million.
That figure is viewed as unrealistic, and Newcastle’s recruitment team, led in part by new scout Thomas Federspiel, are keen to capitalise on opportunities to uncover global talent at value prices.
Rayan has quickly become one of the standout attacking prospects in Brazil.
Across 2025, he scored 20 goals and added one assist in 57 appearances, form that has marked him out as ready for a fresh challenge in Europe.
Highly regarded scout Ben Mattinson has previously described him as “deadly in the box,” a reputation that continues to grow with each passing month.
Newcastle are already well stocked in wide positions, with Anthony Gordon, Harvey Barnes and Jacob Murphy providing depth and quality. Even so, the demands of competing on multiple fronts mean additional attacking options are always welcome.
Whether Newcastle decide to move decisively at the £20 million valuation, or ultimately choose to walk away, remains to be seen as the transfer window unfolds.
