Newcastle United are reportedly interested in signing Ajax midfielder Donny van de Beek this summer as the prospective owners continue to work behind the scenes even before the takeover is confirmed – and Toon fans have reacted on Twitter.

Van de Beek, 23, is expected to have an interesting summer after coming close to a £47million (Goal) move to Real Madrid in the January transfer window. Owned by Mino Raiola, the Dutch international is expected to leave Ajax after 175 outings.

French website Le10Sport have claimed that Newcastle’s potential new owners have identified van de Beek as a player that can improve Newcastle’s midfield – but they are not alone in their pursuit of the midfielder.

Indeed, it is believed Everton are also keen on the Ajax star, while Real Madrid are also interested in landing van de Beek. As we grow deeper into the summer window, other parties are likely to become interested in the midfield dynamo.

Certainly, with the global health crisis placing club’s finances into danger, Ajax may reduce his asking price. That may see the likes of Newcastle nab a bargain, but it is also likely to attract further interest in a player that had a hand in 21 goals this term.

Newcastle supporters have reacted on Twitter to the reported news that their club are interested in signing van de Beek, and many are desperate to see him pull on a black and white shirt next season.
