Report: Newcastle want PSG centre-back Tanguy Kouassi

According to le10sport, Newcastle United will look to bring Paris Saint-Germain centre-back Tanguy Kouassi to St. James Park this summer, with their takeover set to boost their transfer coffers. Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund are looking to buy the Magpies for £300 million, with PCP Capital Partners owner and finance broker Amanda Staveley leading the talks. Despite being 17 years of age, Kouassi has already played 13 times across all competitions for PSG this season, with three goals to his name. The teenager is also attracting Bundesliga side RB Leipzig, but Newcastle’s new project could be more appealing and exciting, and it will be interesting to see what happens.
