Matt Targett has been tipped to join celtics in summer

According to daily A Bola, the Lions will not use the defender’s €80 million release clause as protection and are willing to offer a significant discount for his departure.

According to reports, Sporting is aware that the first request has put off interested parties, and they are now willing to discuss his exit for between €50 million and €60 million.

Despite reports that numerous European clubs are following Diomande, the Portuguese media focuses on Newcastle.

According to reports, the Magpies are the ‘best situated’ club to make a bid, having inquired about the contract terms.

Newcastle’s proposal is expected to be the ‘next move’ in their pursuit, thus Sporting should not be surprised if the Magpies make a try.

A Bola also names Chelsea and Arsenal as being interested in Diomande, but it is evident that the Magpies are leading the English chase for the centre-back.
