Newcastle halt negotiations for Everton forward Calvert-Lewin

Newcastle have decided against pursuing a move for Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin, with a year remaining on his Everton contract, has been a player Newcastle manager Eddie Howe has tracked for several years. However, a £40 million deal has proven prohibitively expensive. The 2024 summer transfer window closes on August 30 at 11 pm UK time in England and midnight in Scotland.
