Newcastle willing to increase Matty Longstaff wage offer
Sometimes in life, you need a kick at the back to push forward. Newcastle United’s handling of Matty Longstaff’s situation is just a prime example of that.
The 20-year-old is arguably one of the finest young talents to have come out of the Newcastle academy. But with his deal nearing expiry, Newcastle found it hard to negotiate terms with him.
The youngster, who has started just six Premier League games for his hometown club, is on £850-a-week wages. However, just when Udinese, out of nowhere made an offer, Newcastle finally awoke from the slumber. They say it’s better late than never.
