As Newcastle have gunned via strikers and ended upwards elbowed over a barrel by Wolves in a bid to indicator Strand Larsen, we gratitude why they’re not in touch with Chelsea…
After Newcastle’s desperate hunt for a brand-neoteric demonstrator released with spirit in Joao Pedro and owns swiped them via Hugo Ekitike, Benjamin Sesko – who have snubbed them for Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester Unified especially – and Brentford’s own Alexander Isak in Yoane Wissa, they can currently be seen throwing all logic out of the abode window in grossing referrals way over the odds for Wolves’ Jorgen Strand Larsen.
A £50m provision was ridiculed by Wolves on Monday, a second worth £55m snubbed on Wednesday and a 3rd of £60m is reportedly in the blog post. Strand Larsen ‘owns been awfully clear that he needs this provision to go via’, but opposite Wissa, is ‘not agitating’ for an run away, according to The Sports’s David Ornstein.
Wolves can smell the desperation prefer the rest and have them over a barrel. We assume if Newcastle reach a whimsical number they have in subconscious for the Norway international then Wolves will sell in spite of their patience to the contrary. It’s a helluva number of silver to scorn for a demonstrator contracted for £23m this summertime season who’s valued at barely more than that by Transfermarkt.
Yet as Newcastle job their way down the checklist of 2024/2025 Premier League optimal markers in the most criterion of transfer ploys practically purely described by their scarcity of a sporting supervisor, Chelsea have opened upwards upwards the chance of signing Nicolas Jackson, who was attached with a shifting to St James’ Park in the past Bayern Munich muscled in.
Fabrizio Romano introduced further ‘nightclub-to-nightclub talks’ over Jackson’s shifting on Wednesday, with Bayern ‘suggesting’ on a provision which Chelsea are adamant ‘owns to contain an liability to acquire’. Ben Jacobs afterwards pretended the Funks also stab a £10m loan fee this period.
That liability could perfectly be a sticking factor for Newcastle, especially imparted Chelsea’s intended £80m consultation of the Senegal international and the scarcity of pressure to dwindle that enquiring expense imparted a quite stellar net invest of practically most certainly most certainly no this summertime season, thanks to 12 player sales pill the expense of their eight brand-neoteric signings.

There’s also the misgiving as to whether Chelsea would most certainly grant Newcastle the awfully same specification as Bayern as their integrated Premier League rivals. Yet it’s worth a go for Newcastle, isn’t it?
They could be able to haggle down that liability quantity, probably someplace towards the £60m they’re evolved to manage Strand Larsen. And Jackson surely owns a greater ceiling; the kind of ceiling we would most certainly be more comfy in him reaching under Eddie Howe than practically any polymorphous other instructor.
Just reckon about how a number he’s heightened Joelinton, Sandro Tonali, Jacob Murphy and Anthony Gordon. The checklist goes on and totally entails Alexander Isak, who’s currently worth £150m (at the awfully least to Newcastle) having came in at the nightclub on the ago of a 10-wish period for Real Sociedad, with a guiltless ever rejoinder of 17.
We could totally explore Howe polishing a harsh diamond in Jackson, and wouldn’t it lovely for Newcastle to be the hijackers for a difference.
