According to the source, the parties held quite productive negotiations on Monday, as a result of which the Magpies managed to reach a compromise. This is Newcastle's fifth offer for Geha's transfer. This time, the club from the North of England offered 70 million pounds for Geha. If this transfer takes place, it will be the most expensive acquisition for Newcastle and the most expensive sale for Crystal Palace.

It is worth noting that Crystal Palace is considering the option of signing Maxence Lacroix from Wolfsburg.
