Newcastle United have reportedly struck a deal for Stanley Nsoki.

According to RMC Sport, Newcastle United have agreed a €11million (£10million) deal to sign Paris Saint-German defender Stanley Nsoki.

The Magpies need another left back this summer, having seen loanee Antonio Barreca flop at St James’ Park, and Paul Dummett needs competition.

One player Newcastle have kept tabs on for a while is PSG talent Nsoki, as The Chronicle reported last summer that Rafael Benitez wanted to sign the youngster.

No move materialised, but whilst Nsoki won a second league title with PSG last season and made 15 appearances in total, he’s now on the move.

It’s claimed that Newcastle have agreed to pay around £10million to sign Nsoki, having failed with a first bid of €8million (£7million) earlier this weekend.

Nsoki will now open talks about a deal to join the Magpies, giving Newcastle an exciting left back for the future, with the 20-year-old backed for a huge future.

However, it’s also noted in the article that it may not be the only deal between the two clubs, as PSG want to sign Newcastle goalkeeper Martin Dubravka.

Dubravka may yet head in the opposite direction, but not in a swap deal, and Newcastle will absolutely hope to sign Nsoki and play him as part of the defence in front of Dubravka, rather than losing their star goalkeeper.
