Eddie Howe’s Newcastle United are interested in signing Antonee Robinson from Premier League rivals Fulham in the January transfer window, according to TEAMtalk.
Newcastle United linked with Fulham’s Antonee Robinson
The report has claimed that Newcastle want to bring in a specialist left-back, and that the Magpies have identified USA international Robinson as a potential target.
Former Serie A and UEFA Champions League winners Inter Milan are also reported to be interested in the £33,000-a-week (SalarySport) 25-year-old, who played for the USA at the 2022 Qatar World Cup.
Could a January transfer happen?
In our view, Newcastle United may not be able to sign Antonee Robinson from Fulham in the middle of the season.
Robinson is an important player for the Cottagers, who will surely not want to lose of any of their best players in the middle of the campaign.
Yes, the American is out of contract at Fulham in around 18 months’ time, but we do not think that the London club will panic just yet.
However, money talks.
Newcastle are in the race for the Premier League top four now, and if they make a good offer to Fulham and Robinson, then they could well be ale to sign him in January.
