Inter and AC Milan are both interested in English teenager Matthew Longstaff, according to a report from today’s paper edition of the English newspaper The Times.
The report details how the 19-year-old English midfielder’s contract expires with Newcastle United in June of this year, pushing both Milanese clubs to considering offering him a long contract in order to tempt him away from the English. The Rossoneri and the Nerazzurri are prepared to give Longstaff a five-year contract to secure his signature.
Newcastle would receive about €476,000 in compensation, the report continues, due to his age and transfer to a foreign team. The negotiations for a contract renewal with the midfielder have hit a standstill, in part due to his low wages. Longstaff has made 11 appearances across all competitions for Newcastle so far this season for a total of 835 minutes. In that time, he’s scored three goals, including a winner against Manchester United.
