According to a report on Bleacher Report, Newcastle United are set to lose Lewis Gibson in the summer transfer window.

Arsenal, Manchester United and Manchester City are all believed to be keen on signing Gibson.

And the 16-year-old is now reportedly considering departing St. James’ Park.

Gibson is considered one of the best talents in Newcastle’s academy system, with his performances being impressive at both under-23 and under-18 level.

Gibson has become a regular with the England under-17 set-up, and although he is yet to make his first team debut for the Magpies, he is considered a very bright prospect.

Newcastle are believed to be keen to keep hold of Gibson, but they could be fighting a losing battle with so much Premier League interest coming in for the young talent.

Newcastle are eager to offer Gibson professional terms, but he is reportedly edging closer to the exit door on Tyneside.
