Report claims Newcastle and Chelsea want Real Madrid playmaker after Milan loan

Newcastle United and Chelsea are interested in signing Brahim Diaz this summer as uncertainty persists over his future, a report claims.

According to a report from The Sun on Sunday (via TheBootRoom), Newcastle and Chelsea are keen on signing Brahim and he could well be available in the summer given that his two-year loan deal at Milan from Real Madrid will end.

The 23-year-old could join Milan on a permanent deal for €22m but Real Madrid have a €27m buy-back clause which means they could keep control of his future and potentially sell him on for a higher price.

The Premier League duo ‘have been made aware that the Spaniard could become available’ as per the newspaper with both the Magpies and the Blues interested in adding to their attacking options ahead of the 2023-24 campaign.

Brahim Diaz has made over 100 appearances in all competitions for the Rossoneri and this season he has five goals across the league and Champions League.
