Lagos, Nigeria – Howfar, my padi? You don hear wetin dey happen for football world? Newcastle don set their eyes on AC Milan star, Malick Thiaw, and na big matter we dey gree talk about. As summer dey hot, the Geordies dey prepare to enter that negotiation ground with Milan.
Thiaw, that 23-year-old German defender wey don catch eyes of many clubs dis summer, fit soon pack him load come join Newcastle. Why? Because them dey look for way to beef up their defensive line after injury wahala wey dem face last season. No be small thing o! (E no easy to carry defender wey go fit stand shoulder to shoulder with the big boys).
Reports dey fly around say Newcastle wan enter talks with AC Milan to find out wetin dem go need to pay to secure Thiaw. E get as dem dey talk say dem wan put official offer wey go fit make Milan sit down with dem. But make we no forget say this Thiaw guy don become important player for Milan under the eye of coach Massimiliano Allegri.
Allegri no wan hear anything about selling Thiaw, but Newcastle no dey ready to gree sleep for this one. Dem sabi say they go need fork out around €35 million plus bonuses (money wey fit make person dance one or two gbenro). Na the only way dem fit sweeten the deal for Milan to gree let am waka.
Last season, Newcastle struggle with defenders wey no fit maintain their fitness. Dey get injury palava with players like Sven Botman and Jamaal Lascelles. Na why dem dey desperate to find reliable players wey go fit hold that back line tight like dem dey secure bank vault (as e dey sweet for mouth!).
But you sabi how football transactions dey go now, abi? Na tricky business! E no be free road to secure player like Thiaw wey dey play for Serie A. Milan go definitely try hold on to am strong like say dem dey enjoy suya for backyard. If dem no gree, dem go need to find another star player wey go fit fit fill Thiaw shoes. Hear say dem dey consider Giovanni Leoni from Parma.
As Newcastle dey push to add more firepower to their squad, we go keep our eyes wide open to see how this yarn go end. E fit lead to plenty celebration for Geordies as dem fit carry Thiaw come town, or dem go just dey watch as e continue dey catch ball for Milan. Let’s dey watch with jollof and palm wine in hand!
