Report: Newcastle and Genoa still negotiating for Achraf Lazaar
According to reports from Ginalucadimarzio.com, Italian club Genoa are locked with negotiation with Newcastle United to sign Achraf Lazaar this summer.
The report claims that there have some disagreements over the player’s “purchase clause”, but Genoa are working hard to bring the 26-year-old defender to Italy.
The left-back was signed by Rafael Benitez in 2016, but he barely featured for the Magpies during his two-year stay at the Tyneside club.
He managed just four games for the Magpies, and spent last season on loan at Benevento. The move turned into a nightmare for him as he found game time hard to come by and was eventually exiled from the squad.
