Newcastle United have stated they are looking to offload wantaway forward Aleksandar Mitrovic on a permanent basis only, having reportedly rejected a staggering 22 separate offers for the Serbian striker.
According to Football Insider, the 23-year-old has been the subject of fervent transfer speculation from Premier League rivals Brighton & Hove Albion, West Bromwich Albion as well as a host of clubs on the continent including French duo Bordeaux and Olympique Marseille, with loan offers from Turkey and Belgium also on the table.
The Magpies, however, have thus far turned down all interest in the player for a short-term move away from the club, preferring to take the player off the books permanently.
