Report: Matty Longstaff waiting to hear from prospective new Newcastle owners

According to The Guardian, Matty Longstaff is waiting for the potential Newcastle United takeover to go through before making a final decision on his future.

The report has claimed that Longstaff has agreed a short-term extension to his current contract at Newcastle and will stay at the club until the end of the season.

The 20-year-old midfielder will then become a free agent, and The Guardian has reported that although Udinese want the youngster, the England Under-20 international is waiting to hear what Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF) – the potential new owners of the Magpies – have to say before making a final decision on his future.
