Newcastle to table improved offer for in-form international winger Garry Rodrigues in January
Newcastle United haven’t given up hopes of signing the Cape Verde international Garry Rodrigues.
The Magpies tabled a £6 million bid for Rodrigues over the summer however, Galatasaray turned down the offer.
A source close to the Istanbul based club has told Turkish-Football that Newcastle United have been in regular contact with Galatasaray over Rodrigues.
Per the source, Galatasaray are expecting to receive an improved offer in January.
However, Rodrigues is an established member of Galatasaray’s starting eleven. The Istanbul giants are unlikely to offload any of their key names mid-way though the season.
