BREAKING: RB Leipzig’s Slovenian Striker Agrees Personal Terms with Newcastle United Ahead of €78M Move
Newcastle United are on the verge of completing one of the most sensational signings of the summer transfer window, as they reach a verbal agreement with RB Leipzig’s towering Slovenian forward. Standing at an imposing 6’6”, the 24-year-old striker — dubbed the “Slovenian Monster” — has officially agreed personal terms with the Magpies, paving the way for a €78 million switch to St. James’ Park.
The player, who reportedly rejected an offer from Manchester United in favour of joining Eddie Howe’s project, arrived at Newcastle’s training facility just minutes ago to undergo a medical examination. Sources close to the club confirm that he is expected to sign a long-term deal worth around €120,000 per week.
The forward enjoyed a breakout season with RB Leipzig, drawing interest from several European heavyweights thanks to his blend of physical dominance, aerial prowess, and clinical finishing. Newcastle have moved swiftly to secure his services, making him one of the most expensive signings in the club’s history.
This signing marks a major statement of intent from Newcastle, who are looking to bolster their attacking options ahead of a busy Premier League and European campaign. The arrival of the Slovenian international is expected to add a new dimension to their frontline, giving Howe a genuine target man capable of transforming their style of play.
Final confirmation is expected within the next 24 hours following the successful completion of medicals. Should everything go to plan, an official unveiling at St. James’ Park could take place before the weekend.
Fans are already gathering around the stadium in anticipation, as Newcastle prepare to welcome their newest star and one of the summer’s biggest transfer coups.
