Rumoured Transfer Fee - £50m

Solskjaer had identified the Newcastle United youngster as the perfect player to add to his squad. The Norwegian has targeted young British players all summer in an attempt to form a strong backbone for the future. However, United were in for a shock in their pursuit of Longstaff, as Newcastle pinned a £50m price tag on the young midfielder.

The Red Devils were previously confident of securing the services of the Englishman, however, they are reluctant to pay such an exorbitant amount for the youngster, especially since he is unlikely to be a regular first team member next season. Newcastle are adamant about the valuation of Longstaff, which has been aided by the fact that United paid £50m for Wan-Bissaka.

New boss Steve Bruce reportedly has Longstaff in his plans and the player himself will not force a move away from the club. As such, unless Newcastle drop their asking price for the midfielder, this deal might not materialize.
