Newcastle Utd set to make this Man Utd striker their first major signing

With barely a few days to the start of the January transfer window, rumours are already making rounds on players who could be available for signings.

In a recent report, Man Utd striker Anthony Martial has been linked with moves away from Old Trafford.

However, reports have now claimed that Martial could soon be on his way to sign for Newcastle Utd, who are determined to make him their first mega signing in the coming January transfer window.

The reports claimed that the Magpies are determined to pay a hefty loan fee of around £6 million to bring the France forward to St James’ Park.

Martial wants to leave Old Trafford to get playing time, and Juventus had shown an interest in taking him for the rest of the season.

But the Magpies believe they have what it takes to beat Juve to the bid for the striker y paying over £1m a month to get him for the remaining five months of the campaign.

There is no doubt that Newcastle Utd have the money to splash after their takeover.

There only struggle is how to tempt any player into a permanent move as their Premier League future remains doubtful.
