British media: Newcastle is interested in striker Watkins, Villa may sell for about 60 million pounds

According to British media chroniclelive, Newcastle is closely monitoring the situation of Villa forward Watkins, and it is reported that Eddie Howe appreciates him very much.

It is understood that Newcastle has assured Eddie Howe that he has funds to conduct competitive contracts, and the PSR problem has been resolved. But Eddie Howe and Newcastle have a completely consistent view on finding the right players who can quickly blend with their existing roster.

In fact, maintaining the team spirit that will bring Newcastle into the Champions League is a top priority on Eddie Howe's wish list, but they have no doubts about the level of Watkins, Visa or Cesco.

Watkins may leave Villa, as Emery hopes to raise funds, Newcastle has put Watkins, Sesco and Visa on the forward signing list. Villa may sell Watkins for about £60m, but Newcastle is waiting for the opportunity.

Villa coach Emery is reportedly eager to bring in Chelsea striker Jackson, who had worked with players at Villarreal, which could mean Watkins will be sold to help raise transfer funds.

If Isaac leaves the team, Watkins will be seriously considered, but Eddie Howe said yesterday that there is a possibility that Isaac stays in the team and brings in a top player.
