Newcastle United Eyeing Marcus Tavernier in £10m Summer Move
Exciting times are ahead for Newcastle United fans, as the club is actively working on strengthening their squad for the upcoming summer transfer window. One of the latest names to emerge on their radar is Marcus Tavernier, the versatile Bournemouth winger who has been impressing in the Premier League this season.
Reports suggest that Newcastle’s recruitment team has been doing their homework on Tavernier, assessing the possibility of bringing him back to his hometown club. The 25-year-old has strong ties to the area, having grown up in Newcastle and spent time in the club’s academy before moving to Middlesbrough in 2013. If the deal goes through, it would be a return to familiar territory for the talented winger.

Eddie Howe is particularly keen to strengthen the right side of Newcastle’s attack, which has lacked balance compared to the threat Anthony Gordon provides on the left. Tavernier’s versatility and work rate make him an ideal candidate for the Magpies, as he is capable of playing in multiple attacking and midfield roles. So far this season, he has contributed two goals and five assists in 18 Premier League appearances, helping Bournemouth sit in an impressive fifth place in the table.
Newcastle is also keeping an eye on other attacking options, with Brentford’s Bryan Mbeumo, PSV Eindhoven’s Johan Bakayoko, and West Ham’s Mohammed Kudus also on their shortlist. However, Tavernier’s Premier League experience and connection to the city could give him the edge in Newcastle’s transfer priorities.
If a deal is agreed upon, Tavernier would be a smart addition to Newcastle’s squad, providing depth, creativity, and a much-needed attacking presence on the right flank. As the summer transfer window approaches, all eyes will be on St. James’ Park to see if the Magpies can secure his signature and bring him back home.
