Newcastle United have entered the race to sign one of the most wanted strikers in Europe at the moment.
The Magpies are getting set to launch a club record €80 million bid for Goncalo Ramos, who is also wanted by Manchester United and Real Madrid.
Ramos came to the limelight after he scored a hat-trick for Portugal in the round of 16 of the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
The young striker scored 27 goals and provided 12 assists overall in 47 matches across competitions for Benfica during the 2022–23 season.
Erik ten Hag’s Red Devils’ side has long been linked with a move for Ramos while Real Madrid has also been touted as a potential suitor for the Portugal international.
He is one of the players on Los Blancos’ radar to become Karim Benzema’s long-term replacement.
Newcastle will be playing in the Champions League in the upcoming season hence, they are looking to build a solid squad to further improve during the 2023–24 season.
Despite having Alexander Isak in their ranks, the Magpies are interested in Ramos. They are even willing to table a club-record bid of €80 million for the promising 22-year-old striker.
