Newcastle to accelerate interest in 30 million pounds sterling “genius”

There is never a quiet day in the Newcastle United Recruitment department is there?

He has been reported Tuesday morning that Alexander Isaac does not intend to play again for the Magpies, even if the transfer window closes and it has not been sold.

It is certainly a saga which will appear apparently again and again, perhaps even beyond the deadline for transfer of September 1.

In the meantime, with or without Isak, Eddie Howe Does he seek to strengthen his team before returning to the Champions League, so could a “quality” talent soon move to the northeast?

Transfer activity in charge of Newcastle

So far, Anthony Elaga and Aaron Ramsdale are the only additions to Newcastle, but some others could soon follow.

Indeed, an investigation was made to Sam Aghewa from PortoWhile it has also been said that the Magpies are set to make an offer For Brentford’s balance shooter, Yoane warned.

In the meantime, could Newcastle have a good deal by bringing a young talent reminiscent of Hatem Ben Arfa?

GOOD, John Percy of the telegraph Reports according to which Newcastle should accelerate their interest in sign Bilal El Khannouss from Leicester City.

They add that the Moroccan international contract contains a liberation clause, after the relegation of the Foxes to the EFL championship, the Magpies ready to pay up to 30 million pounds sterling to guarantee its signature.

El Khannouss carried out 90 minutes at the opening of the Leicester League against Sheffield on Wednesday Sunday, but he is apparently ready for a return to the Premier League, with Leeds and Tottenham also interested, so could he find himself on Tyneside?

Why Bilal El Khannouss should excite Newcastle supporters

Just to say, Leicester City endured a miserable campaign the last time, winning only six Premier League games all season, not having scored in nine consecutive home games, losing them all, between December 22 and Easter Sunday, a new record for the unwanted division.

However, in the middle of all the slag, El Khannouss managed to impress, scoring three goals in his first season in England, notably the winner in Tottenham in January.

Consequently, analyst Ben Mattinson described it as “One of the best prospects in the world“, while Scout Antonio Mango greeted him as a “genius”.

The 21-year-old composure on the ball and the exceptional dribbling capacity ranked among its key forces, having notably recorded 1.1 dribbles successful per game in high-flying last season, according to Sofascore. It certainly resembles the former favorite of Newcastle Ben Afra, isn’t it?

During his stay in Tyneside, between 2010 and 2014, the French international became renowned for his skills, dribbling the prowess and the attack of Flair, which were all encapsulated by this astonishing solo strike against Bolton in St James’ Park in April 2012.

So, let’s analyze the statistics of El Khannouss and Leicester last season to highlight the comparison.

As the table is documenting, in one side of Leicester City generally dismal, El Khannouss was undoubtedly the main creative force, first classified as regards the expected aid, the big chances created, the key passes, the progressive passes and many, many other attacked measures.

He has a similar talismanic quality that Ben Arfa had for the majority of his stay in Newcastle, taking the attacking burden and often overlooking things alone.

Thus, in a clearly better team, El Khannouss could become a star of the Premier League, and the Magpies could provide him with the platform to do this.
