Newcastle appointed the Italian elite star as the first signer of the bin Salman era

Newcastle United may usher in a new era by signing the famed Italy superstar, and two midfield stars are looking to leave Arsenal, while Saturday transfer rumors claim Barcelona are looking to sign a shunned Manchester United player in January.

CIRO IMMOMOBILE REVEALS NEWCASTLE TRANSFER TALKS

It is said that Newcastle United will be looking to make Ciro Immobile the first signing of its new era – with talks already underway over a potential deal.

Army Toon and their supporters must rub their eyes in disbelief after Mike Ashley’s £300m purchase this week. The Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, Mohammed bin Salman, has been listed as the head of the new owners of the Public Investment Fund. His net worth ranges between £250 billion and £320 billion, depending on estimates. This in turn makes Newcastle the richest club in the world.

Players such as Philippe Coutinho and Aaron Ramsey have already been mentioned as goals.

In fact, our article here has listed five attainable goals for the magpie to consider.

However, Newcastle seem to be dreaming big and looking at world-class stars. In fact, director Amanda Staveley answered questions about the possible transfer of Kylian Mbappe.

However, the first signing of the PIF era could be a star from Italy’s successful team at Euro 2020, if the reports are accurate.

In fact, according to the Daily Express, Newcastle are looking at Lazio striker Immobile as their first new signing.

The 31-year-old has been with Lazio since 2016 and has become an icon for the club. With 156 goals in 227 matches, his record stands among the best in Serie A.

Immobile reveals Newcastle talks

Immobile also revealed that he held talks with Magpies over the summer when PIF first approached the task.

“During the period when there was talk of a possible purchase of Newcastle by the Sheikh Fund, they contacted my agent, Alessandro Moggi,” Immobile told Corriere dello Sport.

“Then the Premier League didn’t agree to that proposal, or the fund withdrew, I don’t remember very well.

“I know they were also looking for an Italian coach, [Massimiliano] Allegri or [Luciano] Spalletti”.

Immobile has since signed a new five-year deal with Lazio, but a giant bid from Newcastle could change their minds.

Both Allegri and Spalletti have also taken on new jobs, so Newcastle options will not be available now.
