Newcastle stance softening as Chelsea player now becomes their leading candidate to sign | OneFootball

One Chelsea player has now become the leading candidate for Newcastle United to sign after their stance has softened on him.

Chelsea are being rumoured with plenty of outgoing deals right now and there could still be plenty of action as we enter the final weeks of the transfer window with time running out now.

EXCLUSIVE! Chelsea offered chance to sign Premier League centre back and it’s not Marc Guehi!

One player who is not going anywhere this month is Andrey Santos. The midfielder is apparently not for sale or not for loan this window, although the report also does state that they would sell him if only for a massive fee.

And it looks like goalkeeper Filip Jorgensen is also staying at the club this window despite many clubs circling for him and asking about his availability this month.

So there is plenty of situations still brewing up this month as Blues fans strap themselves in for what could be a busy end to the window.

Jackson could still leave

Striker Nicolas Jackson is still expected to leave the club this window but of course, to leave then you need somewhere to go, and there hasn’t been many stories about where Jackson could go other than to Newcastle.

But he could still go there, and apparently their stance has softened.

Jackson to replace Isak?

According to Newcastle World this week, the prospect of signing Nicolas Jackson divided the Newcastle recruitment team just a few weeks ago, but that stance appears to have softened. Jackson is emerging as one of the leading candidates to replace Isak if he’s sold.

We keep hearing that Jackson would not come cheap, so let’s see if Newcastle will be prepared to spend what it takes to sign him or not. But if Isak goes, then they will absolutely be needing a new striker to come in and replace him.
