Newcastle and Everton Linked With Yacine Brahimi

The latest midfielder linked with a move to Tyneside is Yacine Brahimi, the player also reported to be interesting Everton.

The midfielder has held his own for unfashionable Granada in the Spanish top division but is yet another non-scoring midfielder we seem to attract and/or are linked with.

This week we have had the Mackems’ Jack Colback who has only 3 goals in well over 100 appearance for Sunderland, then Brahimi has only 2 in 59 matches for Granada.

French born, the midfielder joined Granada for £3m two summers ago and is hoping to be on the plane with Algeria having played in three recent qualifiers.

It is reported that the Spanish club are looking for around £4m for the player, though any potential transfer may be influenced with how Granada finish the season, currently only 3 points above the drop.
