Newcastle United and Manchester United are interested in Belgian top talent August De Wannemacker. It is reported that for now, the two Premier League clubs are limiting their involvement to intensive scouting. Both clubs are said to view the 17-year-old KRC Genk midfielder as an interesting option for the longer term, particularly as he will enter the final year of his contract next summer. He joined the club in January 2026. Transfermarkt estimates his current market value at €2.00m.
