Newcastle United faced a setback as defender Sven Botman suffered an injury during the match against Liverpool on Sunday.
The extent of the injury is yet to be determined, but given the Dutchman's importance to the team, manager Eddie Howe might need to explore the transfer market for a potential replacement.
Football Transfers has reported that the Magpies are considering a move for Goncalo Inacio. The 22-year-old has been a standout performer for Sporting CP and could bring substantial value to Newcastle's squad in the long run.
The Portuguese ace is currently under contract with his current team until the summer of 2027, with a release clause set at €60 million. With financial resources at their disposal, the Premier League outfit appear capable of meeting the defender's valuation.
Recent weeks have seen Inacio linked with a potential move to England, keeping fans intrigued about whether the Tynesiders can finalize a late transfer deal.
