Transfer
Newcastle United target Nicolas Pepe would be interested in a move to St James’ Park.
According to 90min, the Ivory Coast winger, who joined Arsenal from Lille in 2019, has fallen out of favour at the Emirates Stadium under Mikel Arteta and the Magpies have been offered the opportunity to sign him from Arsenal.
In a piece of related news, Pablo Mari is edging closer to the Arsenal exit door as the 28-year-old’s central defender’s representatives continue to negotiate a potential return to Italy.
The Spaniard spent the second half of last season on loan at Udinese, who remain keen on signing the former Flamengo man despite the absence of an option to buy within the initial agreement negotiated during the winter.
However, Serie A new boys Monza are looking to move ahead of their fellow transfer rivals and Hellas Verona as they prepare to welcome Mari’s agents to Italy for face-to-face negotiations.
Mari has been told he is free to find a new club this summer having also been the subject of interest from Fenerbahce.
