Newcastle United is reportedly interested in signing Sporting’s talented defender, Goncalo Inacio, as they look to bolster their squad for the upcoming season. However, they are facing stiff competition from Manchester United, who are also keen on the young Portuguese center-back.

Inacio has been a key player for Sporting this season, helping them win the Portuguese Primeira Liga title, as well as playing a vital role in their Europa League campaign. He has impressed with his defensive abilities, as well as his composure on the ball and his ability to start attacks from the back.

Newcastle United’s current center-back options have failed to provide the necessary solidity at the back, and the addition of a young, talented defender like Inacio could help them improve their defensive record next season.

However, they will face stiff competition from Manchester United, who have also been monitoring Inacio’s progress. The Red Devils have also struggled defensively this season and are reportedly keen on signing the Portuguese youngster to strengthen their backline.
