AC Milan and fellow Italian club Inter Milan are interested in signing Nicolas Siewald from RB Leipzig at the end of the season. Newcastle United are also interested in the 24-year-old Austrian defensive midfielder, whom they have been monitoring. Scouts from Newcastle have been watching the player in the Bundesliga and have been impressed. Siewald could cost around €45 million in the summer and may demand wages of about £100,000 per week. He moved to Leipzig from Red Bull Salzburg in July 2023 for a fee that was reported to be €20 million, and his current contract runs until 2028. The Austrian international has 46 appearances and 1 goal for his country. His market value, according to Transfermarkt, is €22.00m.
