Newcastle United have reportedly tabled a £10 million bid.
The Daily Mail’s Live Transfer Blog [13:53] has reported that Newcastle United have lodged a £10 million offer for Stanley N’Soki.
Newcastle were reportedly speaking with Paris Saint-Germain about the 19-year-old defender earlier this week.
But the Magpies have now advanced things after making a £10 million bid – £6 million up front and the remainder in potential add-ons – according to the Daily Mail’s Live Transfer Blog.
The report adds that Newcastle are waiting to hear back from the Ligue 1 giants over the proposal.
N’Soki is a centre-back and Rafael Benitez might be keen on signing him in the wake of Florian Lejeune’s injury.
The French defender suffered a cruciate ligament injury late last month and is now set for a lengthy spell on the sidelines.
Benitez has already signed Fabian Schar but that was as Chancel Mbemba’s replacement, so time will tell whether the Spanish manager is still in the market for a central defender.
N’Soki, who only has one league appearance for PSG under his belt, has started all three of the French club’s friendlies in pre-season, against the likes of Arsenal.
