While the center half is a Magpies target, the reports may be a little premature at this stage.

Gordon Stipic, the agent of Thiaw, told Sky Germany: “The current reporting about my client Malick Thiaw in connection with a possible transfer to Newcastle United is FALSE and incorrect. 

“Therefore, I will not comment on any further rumors.”

Milan are said to want a fee that is higher than what Newcastle are able to pay for Thiaw.
