Newcastle are very close to signing a brilliant young player during the summer transfer window.
Miodrag Pivaš, a 19-year-old prospect from Serbia, is poised to finalise his move to the North East in the coming days, and the Magpies are ready to announce his signing.
According to a report from the Serbian publication MozzartSport, the Toon Army will pay an estimated sum of £800,000 to sign the talented young player.
Pivaš is well-liked in Serbia and at a young age, he is being predicted to become one of the best players to come out of his country.
Last month, the teenager was seen in Tyneside, when he was spotted outside St. James’ Park with the club’s player liaison officer.
The young defender, who can also play as a midfielder, has been compared to the likes of Nemanja Vidic and Branislav Ivanovic, legendary players from his country.
Newcastle United boss Eddie Howe is not only looking to sign experienced and proven players but also looking to steal young talent from other clubs.
Newcastle United need additions in all areas
The Magpies are increasing the depth of their squad this summer since losing several players to an injury crisis last season, which eventually affected their season.
The young player from Serbia will be hoping to make an impact at the club soon and a way to the first team squad will not be difficult if he can impress the club management.
