Reports Link Man United and Chelsea With Bids for Newcastle’s Harvey Barnes

The unconfirmed offers, first reported in Spain, face Newcastle’s stance that the winger is not for sale.

Overview

  • Spanish outlet Fichajes is cited by Yahoo Sports, Football365 and CaughtOffside as saying Manchester United have bid for Harvey Barnes, with Chelsea also lodging an offer.
  • Reported valuations conflict across outlets, ranging from about €60m (£52.5m) to £60m, with one report stating both bids are near £53m.
  • Newcastle are described as unwilling to sell, though both suitors are reportedly prepared to raise their proposals if an initial offer is rejected.
  • Barnes, 27, is highlighted for pace and directness and has been in notable form, including a November brace against Manchester City.
  • The interest is framed as fitting Ruben Amorim’s push for high-intensity wide attackers, yet no club has officially confirmed a bid or agreement.
