Serge Gnabry does not want to join Newcastle United in the summer transfer window, thus handing a blow to the Tyneside club’s prospects.
According to reputed German journalist Florian Plettenberg, Serge Gnabry is the subject of interest from Newcastle United. However, the Magpies have hit a roadblock in the race to sign the 29-year-old Bayern Munich attacker, who does not want to join the Tyneside outfit in the summer transfer window.
Serge Gnabry and his Bayern Munich journey so far
Serge Gnabry has been one of the best players in the Bundesliga since joining Bayern Munich from Werder Bremen in July 2017. The German international struggled to stamp his authority in the Premier League with Arsenal and West Bromwich Albion before blossoming into a world-class attacker at the Allianz Arena.
The 29-year-old has turned out nearly 250 times thus far for Bayern Munich while chipping in with 86 goals and 53 assists. However, Gnabry’s long-term future at the Bundesliga club is uncertain after a dreadful 2023/24 campaign. Meanwhile, the player does not have a shortage of suitors.
Serge Gnabry’s situation has not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several high-profile clubs across Europe. Widespread reports have linked the former Arsenal attacker with several Premier League bigwigs, including Manchester United. The latest updates have pointed to Newcastle United being his next destination.
Premier League return on the horizon?
Newcastle United’s interest in Serge Gnabry is understandable. The Magpies have been scouring the market for a wide attacker heading into the summer transfer window amid uncertainties surrounding the long-term future of Miguel Almiron. With the Paraguayan international likely to leave Newcastle United, they must sign a replacement.
The 29-year-old German international has thus emerged as a viable target for Newcastle United. Recent reports boosted the Tyneside club’s prospects, with Bayern Munich open to cashing in on him in the summer transfer window. However, Gnabry does not want to join Newcastle United.
So, the latest development has come as a blow for Newcastle United’s prospects of signing him in the summer transfer window, with a deal unlikely to see the light of day. The Magpies must set their sights elsewhere now as they look to bolster their attack in the coming weeks.
