Here is your 4am Newcastle United transfer digest.

Badiashile claim

Benoit Badiashile has been previously been linked with Newcastle United, although the Magpies have since brought Sven Botman and Dan Burn on board. However, the latest report from Fichajes suggest Eddie Howe's side are prepared to revisit this reported interest in the AS Monaco star.


The 21-year-old has been linked with a host of clubs across Europe since making his professional debut as a teenager in 2018, most notably with Real Madrid. Badiashile is contracted to the Ligue 1 side until the summer of 2024, and the latest report suggests Newcastle would be willing to submit an offer in the region of £35 million.

Fichajes have also provided an update on Nabil Fekir, another player who has been linked with the Magpies in recent weeks. The France international could be on the move next summer, with Real Betis reportedly tempted to cash in on one of their 'most valuable assets'.

Manuel Pellegrini might need to sell Fekir to fund transfer deals next summer, with Arsenal also credited with an interest. The latest report indicates a bid in the region of £26m could be enough for the 29-year-old, who has spent the last three seasons with the La Liga side.
