Newcastle are set to sign Emil Krafth from Amiens this summer.
According to a report from Courrier-Picard, there has been progress in negotiations and the player is set to join the English club.
Apparently, Amiens turned down Newcastle’s initial offer of around € 1.5m for the right back. The Magpies have probably submitted a better offer now.
The 25-year-old defender was left out of Saturday’s game so that he can prepare for his move to England now.
Krafth wants to play for Newcastle United and it will be interesting to see how he adapts to English football now.
