Sources informed CaughtOffside that scouts from Manchester City have been closely monitoring Lewis Hall. An official bid has not yet been made. Newcastle United’s stance is that Hall is not for sale and the club has excluded him from any transfer list. Newcastle are preparing a new contract for Hall with a significant pay rise and a long-term commitment. Market experts suggest that if Newcastle were to consider talks, they would start at £65–70 million. The club intends to balance its transfer budget by selling other players rather than Hall.

Manchester City also admires Lewis Hall and has shown interest in the player. However, Newcastle United's asking price of £60 million might be a challenge for both Liverpool and Manchester City. The young England international has impressed at St James’ Park, becoming a key part of Eddie Howe’s long-term plans. Newcastle is not keen on selling their star players, including Hall, unless they fail to secure Champions League qualification, which might force them to consider significant offers.
