According to The Daily Mail, Newcastle United think that Matty Longstaff will end up at Watford.
It has been reported that Longstaff have turned down Newcastle’s verbal offer of £20,000 per week, as he wants £25,000 per week as salary, with Udinese willing to pay him £30,000 every week.
The report has claimed that Newcastle believe that the 20-year-old midfielder will end up at Premier League rivals Watford, as the Hornets and Italian outfit Udinese are both owned by the Pozzo family and “have a history of trading players”.
It has been added that Udinese would have to pay £450,000 in compensation fee to Newcastle for their academy graduate, while if he were to join Watford, then the Magpies could get £3 million via a tribunal.
