Newcastle United winger Yankuba Minteh is being eyed by Serie A side Roma as a potential addition to their squad during the upcoming summer transfer window. The Giallorossi are in need of strengthening their squad, with manager Daniele de Rossi showing interest in bringing Federico Chiesa to the club. However, the Italian’s future at Roma is uncertain.
According to reports from Gianluca di Marzio via Corriere della Sera, Roma has reached out to Newcastle United about Minteh and requested initial information about the 19-year-old Gambian winger. It is understood that Newcastle values Minteh at 30 million, and other clubs like Marseille and Everton are also interested in signing him. Last season, Minteh was on loan at Feyenoord where he showcased his potential as a young talent.
Roma’s owners, The Friedkins, also own Everton, which may impact Minteh’s future with the club. As the transfer window continues to progress, it remains to be seen where Minteh will end up.
