Report: Newcastle United planning to table £1 million bid for Amiens right-back Emil Krafth

According to The Sun, Newcastle United want to sign Amiens right-back Emil Krafth this summer and are planning to table a £1 million bid.

The Ligue 1 outfit recently paid Bologna £2 million for the defender’s signature following his impressive loan spell at the club last season, and are looking to make profit should they decide to cash in on him.

Newcastle sent scouts to run the rule over the Sweden international during last Wednesday’s Hull City’s defeat to Amiens.

The French side ran out 2-0 winners, with Krafth putting in an impressive shift.
