Rumours were that there were several clubs interested in him including longstanding admiration from Everton as well as Leeds. I would have expected at least between 20 and 25 million at this days prices.


Quote/ Football Insider claims Newcastle will accept offers of ?12million for Sean Longstaff this summer amid ongoing uncertainty about the midfielder's future at his boyhood club. Leeds United and Everton have both been linked with a move for the midfielder, who has made just 12 Premier League appearances for Eddie Howe's side this season.

?They could afford a deal for him, no doubt about that ? I don?t think it would cost too much to get [Longstaff] out of Newcastle?, O'Rourke told Football Insider. "He?s going into the final year of his contract at St James? Park so I don?t think Newcastle will be able to command a huge fee for him, you?re probably looking around ?10?12million.

?He?s been a long-term target for Everton in previous transfer windows ? if he?s looking at his long-term prospects, he?s probably not going to get regular first-team football at Newcastle next season. He?s only started eight Premier League games this season for Newcastle, so the player himself might feel this is the right time to move on.
I agree Bill. A solid, reliable pro who has performances in the locker. One of those players that goes unnoticed eith valueable contributions, just for whatever reason hadn't shown enough for where we want to be . Would strengthen any team 8th down and I rate him - could eventually become a big star in the right environment.

Young, British, talent, attitude. I would expect 25-30+ or thereabouts - more in a bidding war. If no-one comes in with the right money I'd offer another deal. Worth way more to us than 10 milion FFS.
