Newcastle pricing Lascelles out of Besitkas move

Newcastle United captain Jamaal Lascelles could be in line to remain at the club.

The skipper was linked with a move away from the club, primarily to Turkish side Besiktas.

However, journalist Gökmen Özcan believes a deal is now off, given the transfer window is nearing its conclusion.

He wrote on Twitter: "The book of Jamaal Lascelles in Beşiktaş is closed. The Premier League team asked for 3 million Euros. Beşiktaş responded negatively."

Newcastle were willing to let Lascelles leave, but only if they got some money in return.

Instead, they will use him as a rotational option through to the end of the season.
