A lot of Newcastle United fans have flocked to a post from NUFC 360, which has relayed news from the Daily Mail concerning Kristoffer Ajer.
They claim that the Toon will step up their interest in the Norwegian international in the coming days as they look to take him from Celtic.
The 23-year-old has made 176 appearances for the Bhoys since signing in 2016, but it looks like his time at Celtic Park is coming to an end, and the Toon want him on Tyneside.
However, some of these fans are not convinced.
“Conceded a ridiculous amount of goals this season. I do think the defence is an issue but a lack of protection from midfield is also a big problem”
“Yeah highly skeptical too, the Scottish Premier League is hardly a challenge. Sure there have been exceptions that have done well, but I’m not convinced quite honestly”
“Saw him against Rangers, was awful”
Do you think that Ajer would be a good signing?
Yes, he could be great
No, we can do better
Ajer has been linked with AC Milan in the past but is said to be keen on a move to Newcastle, and it looks like the club want him as well.
This post continued to draw in Toon fans who had their say.
“Don’t be silly , we don’t buy players early and let them get settled before the season starts”
It is clear that Ajer does not convince some Newcastle fans, but we think that he could prove to be a good signing for the Toon for a relatively low price.
