Shocking Twist: Newcastle Transfer Target Matt Targett Chooses Leeds United Over Magpies, But Is It Still Possible?
In a stunning turn of events, Matt Targett, a left-back who has been linked with Newcastle United, has reportedly expressed interest in joining Leeds United instead. Although the news isn’t recent, with reports emerging in January that Newcastle boss Eddie Howe might let Targett join Leeds United if their interest advances, it’s still worth exploring.
Why Leeds United?
Targett might find Leeds United an attractive option due to the club’s energetic and passionate fan base. Additionally, Leeds United’s commitment to developing young talent could appeal to Targett’s desire for regular playing time.
Current Status
However, it’s essential to note that Targett has been linked with a move away from Newcastle United since January, and the situation might have changed since then. Newcastle United’s current priorities and Targett’s status would determine whether this potential transfer could still happen ¹.
Other Potential Transfers
Meanwhile, Leeds United has been linked to other potential signings, including goalkeeper Nick Pope, who might be replaced by James Trafford if Newcastle United signs him. The transfer window is heating up, and Leeds United fans will be eagerly watching for updates on these potential deals ² ³.
