Toon plan summer move for Man City loanee - West Ham, Burnley & Fulham also keen - Report

by Andrew Reynolds ·

According to Football Insider, Newcastle have joined the race for Man City centre-back Taylor Harwood-Bellis following his outstanding loan spell at Burnley. 

Naturally, Vincent Kompany is keen to bring the 21-year-old back to Turf Moor this summer following promotion, but it's thought Newcastle, West Ham and Fulham are all keen on the England Under-21 skipper.

The defender is approaching the final 12 months of his contract with City and with regular playing time not guaranteed, could be looking to move elsewhere. 

Harwood-Bellis could play alongside Anthony Gordon at this summer's UEFA U21 Euro finals, with our £40m winger called up to the Young Lions' squad earlier today.

With Newcastle on the lookout for at least one centre-back this summer and Eddie Howe often keen to recruit exciting English talent, I wouldn't be surprised if we have been showing interest. If he signed, he'd certainly have two classy operators to learn from in Sven Botman and Fabian Schar.
