Liam Delap’s summer transfer stance as Newcastle, Arsenal, Manchester United and other Premier League giants circle

Strikers are set to be in demand this summer, with the Magpies, the Blues, the Gunners and the Red Devils all keen on bringing in more firepower.

Callum Wilson’s Newcastle contract expires this summer, so the Magpies are likely to be looking for a replacement.

Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United have all had issues in attack this season and, as such, are likely to look for reinforcements.

Delap is likely to be in demand in wake of his heroics for Ipswich Town and, even if they get relegated, he’s not likely to stay down with them.

The club insist they want to keep Alexander Isak, but one player who is leaving is Callum Wilson and they are working hard on options.

Newcastle sources have confirmed to TBR Football that Delap is someone that they have done a lot of work on and they are ready to compete for his signature.

We can also reveal that Delap himself is open to moving to Tyneside this summer.

Indeed, Delap is open to join any Premier League club – he believes in his own talent and can make an impact at whichever club.

With that in mind, Newcastle know that Delap is a man-in demand and it will not be an easy deal to complete.

Chelsea are huge admirers of Delap and did talk about a potential deal in January and they remain hugely keen.

Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester United and Tottenham have all had talks with the player’s camp – they all like how confident he is.

Put him in a team, no disrespect to Ipswich, but put him in a team that provides a lot more chances, he’s going to have a very, very successful career.”
