Leeds United are close to agreeing a deal with Newcastle for Sean Longstaff.

The newly-promoted club have made a £12m bid for the 27-year-old midfielder.

This deal – if accepted – would see Leeds pay an initial £10m plus £2m in add-ons.

It is not Leeds’ first offer for the player and they are understood to be unwilling to increase it by much more.

Longstaff – an academy graduate whose sale would represent pure profit for Newcastle in terms of PSR – has already entered the final year of his contract.
