BREAKING: Confirmation of a transfer worth £65 million lends credence to Eddie Howe’s statement regarding Newcastle United

In the past, Newcastle United has shown interest in Dominic Solanke during their transfer window.

Despite the fact that there is continued interest in Dominic Solanke’s talents, Bournemouth has made it very plain that he will not be moving on a cheap deal this summer. During the month of January, Newcastle United was rumored to be interested in acquiring the forward; however, the club ultimately failed to acquire any senior players due to the fact that concerns of profit and sustainability dominated their winter window.

Eddie Howe was questioned about his interest in Solanke, a player that he had signed with the Cherries in 2019. However, he explained the situation in a straightforward manner by stating that Newcastle simply did not have the financial resources to pull off such a move. It is a story that is quite frustrating. There is no inquiry that we have made. I am a huge fan of Dominic, and I signed him. I regard him very highly. According to statements made by Howe to the media in January, “We do not have the ability to sign a player of that level.”

Two factors contribute to the likelihood that this will occur once more this summer: Bournemouth is adamant on retaining the 26-year-old player, and his release clause is estimated to be somewhere around £65 million.

In the coming year, I have a strong belief that Dom will be present with us. This week, the owner of Bournemouth, Bill Foley, stated that he had a release clause, which cost a significant amount of money. “Even though we shouldn’t divulge any information regarding the contract, the amount of sixty-five million pounds that was published sounds about right.

A replacement for him is going to be necessary, I suppose, in the event that someone comes after him. A total of two or three potential applicants have been selected by our team. What I do believe, however, is that Dom will be here the next year, and that he will score between 21 and 22 goals.

In light of the fact that Callum Wilson’s future is currently unknown, Newcastle is currently looking for attacking options to add to their roster. Due to the fact that the striker is once again unable to play due to an injury, Howe is making efforts to acquire additional players for the top end of the pitch.

Despite the fact that the manager of Newcastle is eager to keep Wilson, he has stated his concern regarding the amount of money that would be required to replace the 32-year-old player in the current market. Howe’s uncertainty is hardly misplaced, considering the enormous valuation that Solanke has received.

With Newcastle both conscious of the need to strengthen elsewhere and still little anxious over budgets after the PSR scare that occurred last month, the summer kitty can only go so far. A backup striker to Alexander Isak will cost top bucks, and Newcastle is mindful of the need to reinforce elsewhere.
