Newcastle United have reportedly agreed to sell Ayoze Perez to Leicester City for £30million – and some of the club’s supporters on Twitter are fed up and don’t expect the club to spend that money on a replacement.

Sky Sports reports that Leicester have agreed a £30million sum with the Magpies for him, as he looks set to be another big name to depart following on from manager Rafael Benitez.

It is understood that Perez now just needs to have a medical and agree personal terms to complete a move to Premier League rivals Leicester.

Perez, 25, was a key performer for Newcastle last season and an ever-present in the the team.

He was directly involved in 17 goals in 41 games across all competitions and showed his versatility by playing in several attacking positions.

The hard working Spaniard found great success as a right-winger, while he can slot into central areas too if required.

A selection of Newcastle supporters on social media are downbeat that Perez looks set for the exit doors and the biggest concern is that they would invest money on a new signing.

There is a lot of hatred aimed towards owner Mike Ashley at present after the departure of Benitez this summer and potentially losing one of their star attackers is adding fuel to the fire.
