Overview
- Reports say RB Leipzig have lowered their valuation of Norway winger Antonio Nusa to roughly £43 million, a change that could prompt formal bids from interested clubs.
- Newcastle scouts watched Nusa in person during his World Cup outing in New Jersey as the club seeks a left‑side replacement for Anthony Gordon.
- Nusa is 21, under contract with Leipzig until June 2029, and is valued for his pace, versatility and strong defensive work rate that fits Eddie Howe’s system.
- Several top European teams including Bayern Munich, Juventus, Tottenham and Crystal Palace are linked to Nusa, increasing pressure on Newcastle to move quickly.
- Nusa previously saw a proposed £25 million move to Brentford collapse for medical reasons in January 2024 but then established himself in the Bundesliga, which both explains Leipzig’s bargaining position and signals his reported resilience.
