Newcastle United agree shock final hours transfer exit to fund Yoane Wissa's 55m arrival: report
"Newcastle are expected to bid farewell to back-up striker William Osula before the transfer deadline, per reports. MailSport claim Osula is the subject of a bid from Eintracht Frankfurt in the region of 30 million. Newcastle are open to a sale following the acquisition of Nick Woltemade from VfB Stuttgart and the anticipated arrival of Yoane Wissa from Brentford for a combined sum of approximately 115m."
"Alexander Isak is joining Liverpool in a British transfer record deal worth upwards of 125m to the north-east club. Osula's expected departure will mean the three senior centre-forwards at Newcastle on the final day of last season could all have left St. James' Park by the end of play on deadline day. Callum Wilson left on a free transfer and has subsequently joined West Ham United, while Isak to Liverpool and Osula to the Bundesliga are in the works."
"Wissa's arrival for 55m has been described as an 'over-pay' by some fans and commenters on social media. The Magpies lodged a 25m bid for the Brentford attacker earlier this summer but saw their proposal rejected and the Bees' asking price continually increase. However, Newcastle can argue they have effectively paid the excess on Wissa's fee by selling Osula, should his transfer to Eintracht be completed before the transfer deadline. Osula is valued at 7m by Transfermarkt."
Newcastle are set to sell back-up striker William Osula to Eintracht Frankfurt for around £30m before the transfer deadline. The club has signed Nick Woltemade and expects to complete Yoane Wissa's transfer from Brentford, with the two arrivals costing roughly £115m combined. Alexander Isak is moving to Liverpool in a British-record deal worth over £125m, and Callum Wilson departed on a free to West Ham. If Osula leaves, the three senior centre-forwards who were at Newcastle at the end of last season will all have exited. Osula has four years remaining on his contract and is valued at £7m on Transfermarkt.
