Newcastle United are pushing to complete the signing of Feyenoord winger Anis Hadj Moussa, with negotiations expected to continue over the coming days.
The 24-year-old Algerian international remains under contract in Rotterdam for another four years, and Feyenoord are said to be valuing him at around €40 million. That price point shows Newcastle United will need to be serious if they want to bring the move together quickly.
The interest is not new. During his spell at Al Ahli, Matthias Jaissle previously attempted to sign Hadj Moussa, and the winger is now one of his priority transfer targets as he looks to strengthen Newcastle United’s attack.
The timing also fits the club’s wider needs. Newcastle United are seeking attacking reinforcements after outgoing sales, and a deal for Hadj Moussa would give them another high-value option in the final third.
What happens next
Negotiations are expected to continue over the next few days, so this is not yet finished. But Newcastle United are clearly moving with purpose, and Hadj Moussa has become one of the main names to watch as the club looks to add quality before the window moves on.
