 Newcastle strike £38m deal for Leicester's Harvey Barnes

Newcastle have seen off competition from West Ham to agree a deal to sign Leicester attacker Harvey Barnes.



Although personal terms are yet to be agreed on, that won’t be an issue as both clubs are willing to deal, meaning Barnes will soon become Newcastle's third signing of the summer following the arrivals of Sandro Tonali and Yankuba Minteh.

Newcastle have been working on a deal for Barnes since the start of the summer transfer window. The 25-year-old was Leicester's top scorer last season with 13 goals in 34 Premier League appearances.

Barnes was always likely to be one of the big names departing Leicester this summer as the club looked to reduce its wage bill following relegation to the Championship. On Wednesday Newcastle flew out to the USA for their pre-season tour, but Barnes would join them after his medical.

Luton Town are reportedly interested in signing Martinez from Inter Miami, but the arrival of Messi could now put a stop to the deal. Martinez is a prolific goalscorer, having scored 175 goals in 260 appearances for  former club Atlanta United and 6 goals in 19 appearances for Inter Miami. He would have been a major signing for Luton Town, who are looking to build on their recent promotion to the Premier League. However, Inter Miami are keen to keep Martinez playing alongside Messi.
