Sven Botman hints at summer transfer after admitting Newcastle would be a 'nice project' and that AC Milan was a 'beautiful club'... following his failed £50m move to St James' Park during the January window

Newcastle target Sven Botman hinted he would be open to a move to St James' Park in the summer after a January move collapsed.

Newcastle became the richest club in world football after being taken over by the Saudi Public Investment Fund and were willing to pay £50million for the Lille defender.
