Newcastle United are making waves in the transfer market with a surprising new target – Ethan Mbappe, the younger brother of global superstar Kylian Mbappe. The Magpies are reportedly monitoring the 17-year-old midfielder, who currently plays for Paris Saint-Germain's youth team.
Mbappe Junior on Newcastle's Radar
While Kylian Mbappe's future continues to dominate headlines, his brother Ethan has emerged as an intriguing prospect for Eddie Howe's side. The teenage talent has been impressing for PSG's academy and could be available for a fraction of his brother's astronomical valuation.
Double Bundesliga Raid Planned
Newcastle's scouting network appears focused on Germany, with RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko and Crystal Palace winger Michael Olise also on their shortlist. The Slovenian forward Sesko has attracted attention after a strong season in the Bundesliga.
- Ethan Mbappe: 17-year-old PSG academy midfielder
- Benjamin Sesko: RB Leipzig's rising star striker
- Michael Olise: Crystal Palace's creative French winger
Summer Spending Spree Expected
With Saudi-backed owners willing to invest, Newcastle are preparing for another busy transfer window. The club's recruitment team are casting their net wide as they look to build on last season's European qualification.
"The Mbappe name alone would generate huge excitement," one insider commented. "But Ethan is a genuine talent in his own right who fits Newcastle's model of developing young players."
