Newcastle United have been linked to the Leicester City marksman.
Newcastle United have to pay £10 million in order to prise Leicester City attacker Tom Lawrence from The King Power Stadium, according to The Burton Mail.
The Chronicle reported on Sunday that Newcastle were interested in signing the 23-year-old, who enjoyed a season-long loan at Ipswich Town last term.
However, the Magpies will have to part with about £10 million if they want to bring the attacker to St James’s Park, according to a report from The Burton Mail.
It has been a frustrating transfer window for the North-East club and its fans won’t be hugely optimistic about getting this deal done.
The Independent reported on the weekend that manager Rafael Benitez was considering walking away from Newcastle after growing annoyed that the board would not sanction moves for many of his top targets.
Ruben Semedo and Tammy Abraham are two to have slipped through the Spaniard’s hands so far this summer, but plenty more have been linked.
With regards to Lawrence, that figure seems like quite a lot for the Leicester City talent who, despite his promise, is not proven in the Premier League.
He scored nine goals and set up another nine in 32 Championship starts for the Tractor Boys last season.
