The long-term future of Ryan Gravenberch has been clouded in uncertainty throughout the summer, with Liverpool among the clubs that have shown an interest.

However, recent claims from Rudy Galetti at Tribal Football has indicated that Newcastle United could step up their interest in the Bayern Munich midfielder.

Newcastle may make official approach for Ryan Gravenberch

Liverpool were believed to be the front-runners for the midfielder, but their interest in Southampton’s Romeo Lavia could have a knock-on effect in their pursuit of the Bayern star.

That could open the door for Newcastle, as Eddie Howe is keen to add at least one more midfielder to his squad before the start of the season.

Bayern are willing to allow the Dutchman to leave this summer, but they will likely require a substantial fee, with the 21-year-old under contract until 2027.

Gravenberch has also attracted interest from Serie A, but he has made it clear to Bayern officials that he is only interested in a move to England.
