Premier League duo Man City and Tottenham have both been linked with a move for the Italian midfielder, with Newcastle holding out for a fee of around £100 million.
According to Chronicle Live, Eddie Howe’s side had been keen on a move for Borussia Dortmund’s Felix Nmecha.
There had been reports of a £73.5million release clause in his contract, but they’ve since been shut down, with other suggesting it can’t be activated until next summer.
Dortmund are now demanding a fee of around €100m (£87m) to sell the midfielder, which is deemed to be out of Newcastle’s price range.
