Top clubs, get ready. A clause in the contract of the Leipzig leader will be activated in summer

Newcastle faced significant problems in the context of the position of central defender, because both main players of this position are out for quite a long period of time, which prompted the Magpies to look for options to strengthen the centre of defence in the summer transfer window. And such an option Eddie Howe's team found.

Newcastle have turned their attention to RB Leipzig centre-back Mohamed Simakan, but as Philipp Hinze points out, he won't be a cheap option. From the upcoming transfer window, a €70 million clause is activated in the 23-year-old defender's contract.

Through this factor, the Bulls are calm in the context of Newcastle and Tottenham's interest, but are ready to let the player go if Simakan himself expresses a desire to leave the team. The 23-year-old centre-back is ready for a transfer, but whether he will respond positively to the English clubs' offer is still unknown.
