Newcastle has struggled to attract new players this summer, with a former top goal that chooses to choose Manchester United, even though the Magpies can offer the Champions League football
The summer recruitment of Manchester United, Matheus Cunha, chose the Red Devils above Newcastle, despite the fact that the Magpies have Champions League football this season, while Ruben Amorim's men go without. Newcastle was strongly interested in sailing the back of its impressive versions to the northeast last year to the northeast.
In addition to the added stimulus to be able to set up in addition to his countrymen, Bruno Guimaraes and Joelinton, the Brazilian, would also be hunting for Champions League football in his next club, something that Newcastle could offer.
After the qualification on the last day of the campaign, which will guarantee the club £ 32 million, Newcastle was rejected by the 26-year-old, even though he was told a deal to secure Cunha to secure European participation.
Cunha bewildered tone officials by choosing United instead. United closed the deal for £ 62.5 million despite the Amorim team that ended 15th last season and Europe missed after losing the Europa League final at Tottenham Hotspur.
Reports suggested that the Red Devils were able to offer higher wages to Cunha, while the player himself later claimed that United was indeed the team that he supported as a young person.
“It's hard to put my feelings about becoming a Manchester United player into words,” he said after his signing was confirmed. “Since I was a child in Brazil, I watched Premier League matches on TV in my grandmother's house, United was my favorite English team and I dreamed of wearing the red shirt. I want to thank my family and everyone who helped me makes that dream.”
The total maximum prize money for a participant in the Champions League is £ 137 million, with Newcastle at least guaranteed £ 32 million, which means that the Magpies expected an exciting summer of deals. Nevertheless, the transfer activity of Newcastle has so far at its best average.
Despite the signing of Anthony Elanga for £ 55 million from Nottingahm Forest and securing Arsenal keeper Aaron Ramsdale on loan, Howe has chosen a series of top goals to play their football elsewhere for this coming season. While Cunha went to Manchester, another target, in the form of the French striker Hugo Ekitike, came to Liverpool of Eintracht Frankfurt.
Burnley goalkeeper James Trafford, who was checked by Howe, later signed for Manchester City. Both Liam Delap from Ipswich and Joao Pedro from Brighton, who were seduced by Newcastle, then joined Chelsea, while former Brentford striker Bryan Mbeumo also for United on Newcastle Koos.
A movement for RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko is currently in the making, in which Newcastle has had an range of £ 65.5 million, with 4m in add-ons, rejected for the player. The fears are now furious in St James' Park that will penetrate United and steal the towering Slovenian attacker, with Amorim having a strong interest in rush hour. If that happened, Sesko would be the third player to choose United above Newcastle.
Things were exacerbated for Newcastle this summer after Liverpool had submitted an range of £ 110 million for Superstar striker Alexander Isak. The Swedish star has made it clear that he wants to explore opportunities, away from St James' park, but the club is determined to fight to keep him.
About the situation Howe said: “I think I am very removed from everything that happens at home.
“I was made aware that there was an offer yesterday. That offer was rejected before I heard about it. There are people back in England who are dealing with the situation. I really don't know what will happen next, but from our perspective we still support Alex in all ways, and my wish is still that we see him again in a Newcastle shirt.”
