Newcastle United fans here in the Tavern are hoping to see a number of changes made this summer after enjoying very little success in the campaign just gone.
Indeed, the Magpies won’t want to experience another campaign like that last as they flirted with the possibility of relegation at times. However, it looks as if Rafa Benitez is trying to make a move on the transfer front, as according to Fanatik, Newcastle United are close to agreeing a deal for Oguzhan Ozyakup.
Interestingly, it’s reported that Newcastle United coach Rafa Benitez is close to agreeing a deal for Turkish international midfielder Oguzhan Ozyakup.
The Besiktas central midfielder signed a four-year contract extension with the club last week, but could still end up moving on this summer.
Encouragingly, Besiktas are understood to be open to selling the player and the Dutch-born midfielder wants a new challenge away from the Super Lig.
Landlord’s Verdict:
So, it looks as if Newcastle United are close to agreeing a deal for Oguzhan Ozyakup. Indeed, the central midfielder would be the perfect partner for Jonjo Shelvey as he likes to get forward into advanced positions and uses his pace and dribbling skills to get past his marker, which would allow for the Englishman to sit back and ping passes across the field in a pocket of space.
Newcastle United fans… Thoughts on the news? Let us know down below!!!
