Player agrees to join Newcastle United – Magpies expected to complete signing ‘very soon’…

Player has agreed to join Newcastle United, with the Magpies anticipated to finalize the signing shortly.

The player has indicated his willingness to move to Newcastle United, as Matthias Jaissle and his team are eager to incorporate him into their roster, pending an agreement with the club after personal terms with the player are settled.

Newcastle United is currently in discussions with Benfica regarding the acquisition of Amar Dedic this summer.

The Premier League club is in search of a new right-back following Kieran Trippier’s departure.

On Wednesday, we reported that Benfica would consider a sale if Newcastle United presents an offer of €35m.

The Bosnia and Herzegovina international is familiar with both Matthias Jaissle and his assistant, Florens Koch, from their shared time at Red Bull Salzburg, which is a significant factor in his desire to transfer to St James’ Park.

Dedic has opened the door to a move to Newcastle United.

Matthias Jaissle and his team are eager to add him to their squad and must reach an agreement with Benfica.

Amar Dedic has ‘already consented to the transfer’.

Negotiations between Newcastle United and the Eagles are in progress, and both parties need to come to a consensus.

Newcastle United is taking a firm stance.

Matthias Jaissle’s team is prepared to offer up to €30m for the 23-year-old this summer.

Their strategy involves making an initial bid of €25m and subsequently increasing it to €30m. Newcastle United ‘does not intend to pay a cent more’ than this amount, which falls short of Benfica’s minimum demand of €35m for a player with a €50m release clause.

Despite the discrepancy, there is optimism that the ‘transfer will be finalized very soon’. This is likely due to Newcastle United’s interest in the player and Benfica’s willingness to sell.

SportSport reports: ‘There will be no issues in reaching an agreement, as the Portuguese giants are prepared to sell the BiH footballer. Dedic is expected to join Newcastle United very soon.’

Newcastle United would pose a significant challenge for the fullback, and it is now up to the clubs to finalize the terms.
