Newcastle United Must Pay ‘Significant Portion’ Of Star’s ‘Juicy Salary’ For Move To Happen

Newcastle United goalkeeper Odysseas Vlachodimos is attracting interest from Sevilla. However, for a potential deal to happen, Newcastle would need to pay a 'significant portion' of the player's high salary.

Newcastle has been active in the summer transfer window following two quiet windows due to compliance with Premier League PSR rules. Their activity includes the signing of Anthony Elanga from Nottingham Forest, unsuccessful pursuits of Hugo Ekitike, Bryan Mbeumo, and Joao Pedro, and a current push to sign Brentford's Yoane Wissa. The club also aims to sign another goalkeeper, with James Trafford identified as a target.

Further departures are expected from Newcastle. Callum Wilson has already left the club and is in talks with West Ham United. Greece international Vlachodimos, who joined Newcastle from Nottingham Forest last summer, is specifically mentioned as a player the Magpies are looking to loan out.
