Football: Newcastle Snaps Up Thiaw As Ramsey Deal Moves Closer
Newcastle United: Newcastle United bolstered their defense with the signing of German international Malick Thiaw from AC Milan in a deal worth a reported 34.5 million pounds (46 million U.S. dollars) on Wednesday.
The 24-year-old centre-back is Newcastle's third major summer signing following the arrival of winger Anthony Elanga from Nottingham Forest and goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale from Southampton, reports Xinhua.
Thiaw said manager Eddie Howe convinced him to join despite Newcastle's challenging transfer window, which has seen ongoing speculation about top scorer Alexander Isak's future and failed pursuits of forwards Hugo Ekitike and Benjamin Sesko. Ekitike joined Liverpool, while Sesko signed for Manchester United.
