On June 1st, we covered claims from Germany which stated Newcastle United have a strong interest in Dean Huijsen and are going to rival Borussia Dortmund in the race to sign the Juventus player.

Later that month, Gazzetta dello Sport reported Newcastle were moving more than others to try and sign the 19-year-old this summer.

Il Bianconero now talk about Newcastle, BVB and Bayer Leverkusen interest.

The centre-back has made one appearance for the Serie A side’s first team and spent the second half of last season on loan at AS Roma. The report states the Turin club are ready to sell him for a fee of around €20-25m.

It’s claimed the Spain U21 international has no shortage of interested parties. Newcastle and the Bundesliga duo are mentioned, but Il Bianconero say Paris Saint-Germain are now the most interested team.

PSG have talked to intermediaries involved in the deal, but haven’t yet made an offer to the Italian club. At this moment in time, the Ligue 1 winners ’s pursuit is at a standstill.

Eddie Howe’s side and others can take advantage of PSG’s delay and Juve’s willingness to sell, to quickly wrap up a deal for Huijsen.
