Steve Bruce comments on Matty Longstaff’s future

Newcastle midfielder Matty Longstaff has been linked with a move away from the club this summer.

The 20-year-old will be a free agent soon and the Magpies are keen to hold on to his services. However, the player has not signed an extension yet.

Manager Steve Bruce has now confirmed that Longstaff’s future is in his own hands now.

Bruce claims that the club has made him a ‘wonderful’ offer and the player has reportedly turned it down.

He said to Sky Sports: “The ball is in Matty’s hands. I’ve gone public with it; I think we’ve made him a wonderful offer and for me, it should be his way forward in his career.
