Despite Atalanta’s decision to make Demiral’s move permanent last night, Newcastle United passed up the chance to capture the player Juventus once considered as the future Leonardo Bonucci.
Merih Demiral, a full-fledged Turkey international, was offered to United by the Serie A club last week, but Atalanta, where Newcastle had watched him recently, took up a €20 million clause to sign him on a permanent basis.

“Atalanta announce that the club has triggered their option to sign Merih Demiral on a permanent basis from Juventus,” said an Atalanta statement today.
According to sources in Italy, this does not necessarily imply that Newcastle’s interest is over, as the Bergamo club views the centre-purchase back’s as a wise investment that might be resold for a profit. Newcastle, on the other hand, is looking elsewhere for the time being.
The fact that Newcastle turned down the chance to recruit the former Sporting Lisbon defender gives an indication of the club’s intentions behind the scenes in their search for a centre-back. Burnley’s soon-to-be out-of-contract James Tarkwoski the England international has previously been turned down with everton now on his focus point.
Eddie Howe’s ideal situation would be to sign Sven Botman and team him with Fabian Schar in the middle of his defense. Man City’s Nathan Ake is the other big target, but he’ll set you back £50 million, which is only a little more than Botman’s whole package pricing.
Botman is still on vacation, but according to Chronicle Live, the Dutchman or his agents have yet to give them a “definitive no.” While AC Milan is still thought to be his preferred club, Newcastle has the financial advantage.
Although Ake has only made 10 starts for Man City, he has promised to keep pushing for a starting spot. Last week, Ake stated: “I was taught from an early age to never give up and to always keep trying. That your chance may come again, and that is exactly what is happening now.”
