Newcastle United midfielder Sean Longstaff was heavily linked with a move to Manchester United this summer.
The Red Devils were reportedly keen to sign the 21-year-old midfielder who broke into the senior squad last season. However, Newcastle were reluctant to let go of their prized asset and slapped a massive £50m price-tag on his shoulders.
Eventually, United refrained from making a formal move but they are expected to keep track of his progress. Longstaff has admitted that the speculation surrounding his future during the summer was beyond his control, and revealed that he was “distracted by the outside noise”.
