Newcastle United pull out of talks to sign Dominic Calvert-Lewin – Sky Sports
Newcastle United have now pulled out of talks to sign Dominic Calvert-Lewin.
The breaking news on Monday (24 June) afternoon.
Sky Sports revealing what has happened.
Keith Downie covers Newcastle United for Sky Sports and he states that the club are no longer pursuing a move for Dominic Calvert-Lewin.
He adds that it also appears now to be very unlikely of any move happening whereby Yankuba Minteh moves to Everton. Instead, Lyon are a possible alternative for the 19 year old winger.
The transfer tale(s) concerning Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Yankuba Minteh had beeb reported to a backdrop of PSR concerns for both clubs. With a deadline approaching of 30 June 2024 for the ending of the next three year accounting period where losses of £105m are allowed.
A rash of transfer deals between Premier League clubs believed to be under PSR compliance pressure, has been heavily speculated, with indeed some already done and others claimed to be in the process of getting done. For eexample, Everton and Aston Villa have already traded players both ways this month.
Keith Downie of Sky Sports via Twitter/X – 24 June 2024:
‘Newcastle are no longer pursuing their move for Dom Calvert-Lewin.
They had been in talks with Everton over a £40m move for the striker, but it’s now OFF.
Yankuba Minteh is also very unlikely to now move to Goodison in the opposite direction, with strong interest from French club Lyon for the winger.’
