Newcastle receive big boost in €34m Munoz pursuit

Newcastle United have been handed a boost in the club’s pursuit of Osasuna winger Victor Munoz.

Eddie Howe has made the signing of the Spanish winger his top priority to replace Anthony Gordon, following his £69m transfer to Barcelona.

The Magpies have agreed a deal worth around €34m (£29.3m) for the 22-year-old, who scored six goals and laid on two assists in 33 La Liga appearances.

Munoz also ranked in the top 11% of wingers across Europe for progressive carries and successful dribbles last season.

He marked his Spain debut with a goal against Serbia in March, and has been included in the squad for this summer’s World Cup.


Real Madrid retain a buy back clause on Munoz, having sold the winger to Osasuna last summer for just €6m. However, the Spanish giants have no intention of activating that clause, leaving Newcastle with a clear run at Munoz.

Fabrizio Romano has revealed that Real do possess a 50% sell-on clause, entitling Jose Mourinho’s side to around €17m from the deal.
