Newcastle 'confident' in signing Spanish sensation Munoz despite Real Madrid clause

The 22-year-old left Real Madrid in search of first team football last summer, winding up with Osasuna, who narrowly avoided relegation.

Munoz was a rare bright spark for the strugglers, scoring seven goals and providing five assists in his 36 games across all competitions.

According to Fabrizio Romano, Newcastle look like the winger’s next club despite Real Madrid having a buy-back clause in his contract.

Newcastle sent in an official €30 million bid for Munoz and are ‘confident’ they’ll get it over the line. Real also have a 50% sell-on clause.
