Newcastle put £20 million price tag on striker

Newcastle have slapped a £20 million price tag on Aleksander Mitrovic, and are prepared to sell the striker this Summer according to Sky Sports.

The Serbian, who has travelled with Serbia to this Summer’s World Cup, has been linked with a move away after a loan spell away from the club last season at Fulham.

Whilst in the capital, Mitrovic scored 12 goals in 20 matches as the Whites secured promotion to the Premier League after beating Aston Villa in the Championship play-off final.

Sky Sports report that Mitrovic could be on his way out of St James’ Park, after a disappointing spell in the North East.

Mitrovic has netted only 17 times in 72 appearances for the club, and a move away could help the Serbian rediscover his goalscoring touch.

Fulham are reportedly keen on making Mitrovic’s move permanent after the Serbian became a crucial part of the White’s long unbeaten run that helped them soar up the Championship table.
