Yankuba Minteh

Gambiaj.com – Newcastle United winger Yankuba Minteh has accepted the possibility that his time with the club may be over before it truly began. However, Minteh remains firm that any move must align with a promising sporting project.

Over the weekend, negotiations concerning Minteh’s potential transfer gained momentum, with top clubs such as Marseille, Borussia Dortmund, and AS Roma expressing interest. Everton has also been mentioned as a potential suitor. Newcastle is reportedly seeking a £40 million fee for Minteh, with a crucial financial deadline on June 30 approaching.

Minteh’s agent, Bakary Bojang, confirmed the situation, stating, “It is correct that Newcastle are willing to sell the player if they receive a good offer. From our side, if Newcastle wants to sell and the sporting project is good, we will definitely look at it. We are in communication with some clubs.”

The Gambian international was initially surprised by Newcastle’s decision to entertain offers for him. Having joined the club only a year ago from Odense for £7 million, Minteh has since impressed during a successful loan spell at Feyenoord. This has led Newcastle to consider offers around the £40 million mark.

AS Roma has recently been linked with Minteh, adding to the growing interest from Marseille and Borussia Dortmund. The possibility of a reunion with Arne Slot, his former manager at Feyenoord, now at Liverpool, also lingers as a potential outcome.

As the transfer window progresses, Minteh’s future hangs in the balance, with a crucial decision imminent that will shape the next chapter of his burgeoning career.
