Newcastle United could be Inter Milan youngster Kevin Zefi’s next destination, according to a report from Italy.
The Serie A side signed the 18-year-old for their academy from Shamrock Rovers in 2021 and his time in Italy is expected to end soon.
That’s according to Calciomercato, who say the forward is ‘very close’ to making a switch to Newcastle.
Since the rumours of Newcastle’s interest in the youngster surfaced, Calciomercato state he hasn’t trained under Cristian Chivu’s [Inter U19 manager] orders.
Zefi hasn’t made a first team appearance for Inter. Should he move to Newcastle, he’s likely to start with their youth team rather than immediately being part of Eddie Howe’s squad.
