According to SportsBoom, Newcastle United are trying to intervene in Fulham’s plan to sign Man City winger Oscar Bobb for £30 million ($40.3 million).

Manchester City could make Oscar Bobb available because of the pending arrival of Antoine Semenyo, and Bobb would be available for a reasonable price.

It is reported that Manchester City are ready to let Oscar Bobb leave the club this January for around £20m, with Newcastle among the clubs interested in signing him. Bobb is seemingly being offered to clubs such as Newcastle for that fee, and the Magpies are considered one of the clubs most interested in him. Although a deal is not yet done, Bobb is a realistic and concrete target for Eddie Howe’s side, who are looking for new attacking players. According to reports from the Chronicle and others, the situation seems positive for now, but it is uncertain if Newcastle will sign him.

Newcastle United is reportedly monitoring Manchester City's 22-year-old Norwegian international Oscar Bobb, and other clubs are also interested. Borussia Dortmund is the favorite to sign the player and is in concrete negotiations with his club. The discussions are for a loan until the end of the season that includes a subsequent purchase option of approximately €34.5 million. Alongside Newcastle, Atlético Madrid, FC Sevilla, Crystal Palace, and AFC Bournemouth are also observing the right winger's circumstances. Bobb has 16 caps and 2 goals for Norway, is under contract with Manchester City until June 2029, and has made 9 appearances with 1 assist in the Premier League this season. His current market value is €25.00m, according to Transfermarkt. Reports from December 2025 noted Manchester City would likely demand a significantly higher fee, while other reports from the same period valued the player at £20 million.
