Newcastle United reportedly facing Manchester City competition for Tanguy Kouassi

Newcastle United’s reported quest to sign Paris Saint-Germain defender Tanguy Kouassi has just become more difficult, as they seem to to be facing competition from Premier League rivals Manchester Ciy.

Le10 Sport recently reported that Newcastle wanted to sign Kouassi on a free transfer once the takeover is complete.

The 17-year-old defender is out of contract at the French club this summer, and no new deal is in place yet.

However, Premier League giants and defending champions City have now entered the race, according to another report in the French report.
