According to TA reporter David Ornstein, Newcastle's 50 million pound offer for Wolves striker Yoll Stran Larson was rejected.
Newcastle offers direct payment of £50 million, excluding additional terms. The Wolves' position is that any offer for Larson this summer will be rejected because he is important to the club and there is not enough time left in the transfer window to find a replacement to participate in the Premier League.
Larsson is seen by Newcastle as a potential replacement for Callum Wilson, whose contract expires this summer, rather than replacing Isaac. Newcastle is still interested in Larson, one of several candidates the club is considering, hoping to step up the offense before the summer window is closed. Larson is interested in the transfer, but is not in a hurry to leave the Wolves.
Newcastle has been looking for a striker this summer because Isaac's future is uncertain. Isaac has made it clear that he wants to leave the team and Wilson's departure. Wilson later transferred to West Ham.
Brentford forward Visa has been the target, but the negotiations are complicated. Newcastle made a quotation of 35 million pounds + 5 million floating for Visa, but was rejected by Brentford. Previously, Newcastle reached an agreement with Leipzig for striker Sheshko, but he chose to join Manchester United. They were also interested in Drapp and Joao Pedro, but both of them later joined Chelsea. Porto forward Aghova has also been discussed.
Larson joined Wolves from Celta in the summer of 2024, and officially transferred for EUR 27 million in July this year. He made 34 appearances in the Premier League last season, scored 14 goals and assisted 4 times. His contract is 2029.
Wolves sold last season's top scorer Cunha this summer, Manchester United paid £62.5 million in termination, captain Semedo and left-back Ait Nuri have also left the team. Meanwhile, Newcastle has completed the signing of Ilanga, Ramsdale, Jacob Ramsey and Jaf.
