Matty Longstaff has turned down an increased contract offer from Newcastle and is expected to join Italian side Udinese this summer, according to The Telegraph.
The Italian side have offered the young midfielder the chance to become their highest paid player on £30,000 a week - a huge increase on his current weekly wage of just £800.
After seeing Longstaff reject their previous offer of £15,000 a week, Newcastle reportedly upped their package to more than £20,000 a week in a bid to stop him leaving for free when his contract expires on June 30.
