Newcastle United are reportedly mulling over the signing of Swansea City’s Icelandic medio Gylfi Sigurdsson in the summer. Sigurdsson is on loan at the Liberty Stadium from German outfit TSG Hoffenheim and has been one of the Swans’ stand out players this season.
Magpies boss Alan Pardew views Sigurdsson as a perfect player to strengthen their midfield for next season, with the Magpies looking odds on to qualify for the Europa League. A spot in the Champions League may also be possible, but a Europa League slot looks more realistic.
Swansea manager Brendan Rodgers is keen to make the deal permanent but Hoffenheim’s asking price ( reportedly around £8m) looks to be out of his reach, thus allowing Newcastle and other potential interested candidates to jump into the fray for the highly rated midfielder.
