Newcastle United in multi-club battle for 17-year-old German sensation
According to Florian Plettenberg, Newcastle United is interested in acquiring the services of Assan Ouedraogo. The 17-year-old midfielder has garnered attention from multiple top clubs, but the Magpies are prepared to compete for his signature. Ouedraogo, who rose through Schalke’s youth ranks, has impressed despite limited playing time in his debut season for the first team. While Bayern Munich has made an offer, Ouedraogo is hesitant due to uncertainties about the club’s managerial future, presenting an opportunity for other interested clubs like RB Leipzig, Frankfurt, Atalanta, and AS Roma. Despite the competition, Newcastle is ready to battle for Ouedraogo’s signature, highlighting their determination to secure his talents.
