Man Utd, Newcastle target Veiga has Celta Vigo buyout clause

Manchester United and Newcastle are eyeing Celta Vigo attacker Gabri Veiga.

As is customary in LaLiga, Veiga's contract possesses a release clause.

It is currently set at £35million, although Celta want to double this sum in a contract extension.

The Mirror says United and Newcastle are among a host of Prem teams admiring Veiga.

They could face competition from Germany, however, with Bundesliga clubs also looking at Veiga closely.

The 20-year-old is represented by super-agent Pini Zahavi, the man tasked with handling his future.

Veiga is a product of Celta's academy. He has made 23 league appearances this season, bagging eight goals and laying on three assists from an advanced midfield role.
