Newcastle United is highly interested in securing a summer deal for Amadou Onana, a talented midfielder from Everton. The 22-year-old garnered attention during the January transfer window, but the Toffees were unwilling to part ways and set a high price for his services. Newcastle has conducted extensive scouting on Onana in preparation for a potential move for the Belgian international during the offseason. The Magpies view the Everton midfielder as a significant upgrade to their current midfield options. Onana has played in 24 matches across various competitions in the 2023-24 season, scoring two goals and providing one assist. Since joining Everton in August 2022, he has appeared in 50 Premier League games. Prior to his time at Everton, Onana showcased his skills at Ligue 1 club Lille, where he netted three goals in 42 appearances. Onana’s contract with Goodison Park runs until June 2027. The young midfielder has earned nine caps for Belgium and represented his country in the 2022 World Cup held in Qatar. Newcastle may face the absence of midfielder Joelinton for the remainder of the season due to thigh surgery. Additionally, Sandro Tonali will not be involved in any further matches this season as he received a ban for violating gambling regulations last year (2023). After a thrilling 4-4 draw against Luton at home on Saturday (3 February), Eddie Howe’s team currently occupies the ninth position in the Premier League.
