Manchester United moves to snatch Newcastle transfer target Tosin Adarabioyo as plans favours one side only

Following interest from Newcastle and Manchester United, the back is set to leave Fulham this summer.

The defender for Fulham, Tosin Adarabioyo, will be a “top player” one day and can do well at Newcastle United. He might have a harder time at Manchester United, which is “less stable.”

Indeed, former Manchester United striker Louis Saha thinks that a move to the Magpies would be good for the 26-year-old. His deal ends next month, and he will be able to sign with any team he wants. He is likely to leave Fulham, with Newcastle and Manchester United being the teams most interested in signing him.

Newcastle wants to sign two defenders quickly. Lloyd Kelly, who recently said he was leaving Bournemouth, is thought to be one of the top candidates. The Magpies have been keeping an eye on Adarabioyo for a while, but United could still make a late offer for him.

The former England youth international, Saha, who played for France and then Manchester United and Fulham after a short loan at Newcastle in 1999, has told the former England player that it might be hard for him to adjust to life at Old Trafford.

“Right now, if you look at both Manchester United and Newcastle United, you’d have to say that Newcastle are the more stable team defensively. They have a lot of good center-backs who aren’t necessarily big names,” Saha told Betfred.

“Manchester United’s defense isn’t as stable, so it can be hard to do well.” When he has the ball in his hands, Tosin is a good player who has a lot of promise. He has the potential to be a great player.

Both Sven Botman and Jamaal Lascelles have been ruled out for most of 2024 for Newcastle. This means that Fabian Schar and Dan Burn only have a few players to choose from. Emil Krafth has filled in for injured players in central defense a few times this season, but the Magpies think that if they can sign Kelly and Adarabioyo, they can focus on offensive players for most of the summer.
