Albion rejected an opening offer from the Magpies
Brighton have rejected a second bid for Dan Burn from Newcastle for around £10million plus add-ons.
Albion rejected an opening offer from the Magpies for the central defender in the region of £8m on Wednesday.
But with Burn turning 30 in May and having only 18 months left on his contract, Brighton would be open to letting him go provided the price is right.
That is understood to be between the £12-15m mark, and it is now down to the Magpies as to whether they want to pay up before the transfer window closes.
Keane reckons it’s time Tottenham parted with Dele Alli
Man Utd legend Roy Keane reckons it’s time Tottenham parted ways with Dele Alli - for the midfielder's own good.
Alli joined Spurs from MK Dons as one of England’s brightest young talents back in 2015.
But the out-of-form 25-year-old has struggled for games in recent seasons and has only featured in six of new boss Antonio Conte’s 15 games in charge.
He was left out of the squad that lost to Chelsea in Sunday’s late kick-off amid speculation a move to Newcastle is on the cards.
And ex-Manchester United skipper Roy Keane says Spurs should let him go to give him a chance to rejuvenate his career.
Keane told Sky Sports: “I think the kid’s lost the eye of the tiger. Sometimes you’ve got to let the kid go, that’s the nature of football.
“You’ve done your time here, you’ve obviously lost your way. (Tottenham should) be good to the kid and go ‘you’ve been a good signing for us’.
“Let the kid go. (He could go to) Newcastle, get his career going up there. The fans would love him if he comes in.”
Christian Eriksen 'close' to short-term deal in Premier League
Christian Eriksen is reportedly 'close' to finalising a short-term deal with Premier League new boys Brentford.
Eriksen has not featured since suffering a cardiac arrest at Euro 2020, and had his contract with Inter terminated last month after being banned from playing in Serie A.
But the 29-year-old is now on the brink of a return to the Premier League, according to Sky Sports.
It's claimed Brentford have agreed terms with the playmaker over a six-month deal, with the option of a further year.
But The Athletic report a deal hinges on whether Eriksen passes all the relevant medical checks that are necessary after his shock cardiac arrest.
A sports cardiologist needs to clear him to play, as do the FA and the Premier League.
The Bees are next in action on February 5 at Everton in the FA Cup, although Eriksen is unlikely to feature in that clash, regardless of whether he receives medically approval in time.
A work permit must be granted in order for him to play, but as Eriksen is currently a free agent there is no rush against the clock to get anything over the line.
Both Leicester and Newcastle have also been linked with a move for Eriksen, but it's the Bees who are now close to getting a deal over the line.
