Juventus midfielder Douglas Lewis has linked his journey away from the club at the end of the season.
Manchester United and Newcastle United are monitoring players, according to a Tuttosport report via Sport Witness. The report alleges that Newcastle is already taking the first steps to sign players.
It will be interesting to see if they can get the deal done.
Newcastle needs Douglas Lewis
They will need to bring in another quality midfielder to complete the midfield unit, and Lewis will be a great acquisition. He has proven himself in the past at Aston Villa. He adds defensive covering, control and creativity to the sides. He was able to form a strong partnership with Bruno Guimares and Sandro Tonari at the heart of Newcastle’s midfield next season.
Newcastle is sought for Champions League qualification and could be an attractive destination for players as well. Meanwhile, Juventus is keen to sign Sandro Tonari, and it remains to be seen whether the two clubs will be able to resolve a profitable deal.
Man United also in the race
Manchester United, meanwhile, is hovering in the player’s background and it will be interesting to see if they’ve come forward and decided to sign him. They will need more quality and technical capabilities in the middle of the park, and Lewis will be a quality acquisition for them.
The opportunity to play in the Premier League is extremely exciting for players. He played the best football in England and he is seduced to come back if there is a compelling suggestion at the table.
Manchester United and Newcastle have the finances to get the deal done. Also, which of the two clubs has been able to secure an agreement with an Italian club?
The 27-year-old Brazilian midfielder struggled with regular game times at Italian clubs this season and convinced him to leave. Juventus is not difficult for English clubs.
