Overview

• Newcastle have agreed a deal worth about £65m plus £4m in add-ons for Nick Woltemade, increasing Stuttgart’s spending power.
• Stuttgart have held talks for weeks over a permanent move for Fabio Vieira, with discussions expected to run up to the deadline.
• The clubs remain apart on price after an earlier loan-with-obligation proposal of around £17m fell short of Arsenal’s valuation near £25m.
• Reporting points to an estimated £8m gap, with a potential compromise package near £21m suggested but not agreed.
• Vieira is surplus to requirements at Arsenal after a 45‑appearance loan at Porto last season and has not been in matchday squads, as the club also seeks other exits before the window closes.
