A look at the latest Newcastle United transfer rumours on Friday, July 28.
Newcastle United linked with Nicolo Zaniolo once again
TttoMercatoWeb claims Newcastle United have set their sights on 24-year-old Italian midfielder Nicolo Zaniolo. It’s not the first time the Magpies have been linked with the midfielder.
The former AS Roma youngster was linked with a move to St. James’ Park prior to a €15million transfer to Turkish side Galatasaray. Zaniolo has impressed during his time in Turkey and his current side have no intention of selling the midfield schemer.

The Turkish outfit, who recently signed Wilfried Zaha as a free agent, have reportedly turned down a €25million offer for Zaniolo and are not keen on negotiating. However, Newcastle are said to have made initial contact with the player’s representatives, but face a tough ask in convincing Galatasay to sell.
No loan move for Lewis Miley, says Eddie Howe
Eddie Howe says he isn’t interested in loaning Lewis Miley out this season. The 17-year-old Newcastle United star was brilliant against Chelsea in the 1-1 draw in Atlanta on Wednesday night and has a clutch of EFL clubs desperate to sign him on a season-long loan.
But just like he did with Elliot Anderson last season, Howe would rather keep him around and give him the chance to win game time on Tyneside.
Howe said: “The plan has been consistent in my mind. He will stay with us this season. There’s no thought of sending him on loan.”
