Report: Newcastle United can land Bordeaux winger François Kamano for £14 million today

According to L’Equipe (via GFFN), a path has been opened for Bordeaux winger François Kamano to move to Newcastle United today before the 5pm deadline. Ex-Magpies boss Rafa Benitez regularly sent scouts to run the rule over the Guinea international, and with the Ligue 1 side keen to sell him as quickly as possible, he could become a Newcastle player if they meet his £14 million asking price. Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has also been linked with Kamano as he looks to strengthen his attack, and he reckons the 23-year-old who can play on either wing and through the middle will can be a quality backup to any of his front trio at Anfield ahead of the long season.
