Newcastle put on transfer red alert as Lille make drastic Matias Fernandez-Pardo decision
Lille head coach Davide Ancelotti has decided that Newcastle United target Matias Fernandez-Pardo will not train with the squad until the summer transfer window closes. The 21-year-old Belgian forward is reportedly open to joining Newcastle, while Atlético Madrid and RB Leipzig are also interested. Lille are demanding around £60 million but are under little financial pressure to sell after Champions League qualification and the £86 million sale of Ayyoub Bouaddi to Manchester City. Newcastle regard Fernandez-Pardo as their top target for an attacking midfielder or versatile forward, with Bilal El-Khannous as an alternative.

Dan Burn Breaks Silence on Newcastle Injury Blow and Confirms Expected Return Date
Newcastle United captain Dan Burn says an ankle injury suffered in training will keep him out for a few weeks, with a return expected after the September international break. Burn missed the season opener against Liverpool, visited a London specialist, and was seen using crutches and wearing a protective boot. His absence leaves Newcastle with Malick Thiaw, Sven Botman and Fabian Schar as the fit senior centre-backs, potentially prompting the club to consider signing another defender before the transfer window closes.
