El Khannouss Attracts Interest from English Club Newcastle United

English club Newcastle United is preparing for a squad overhaul before 2026, with a clear focus on strengthening their team with youth and promising players. According to "The Athletic," Moroccan international Bilal El Khannouss, a Stuttgart player, is among the prominent names targeted to bolster Newcastle's squad.

The team enjoys greater freedom in the transfer market after strengthening its administrative structure with the presence of a CEO and a sporting director, and without significant restrictions due to profit and sustainability rules. Newcastle's priorities focus on full-back positions, midfield, and goalkeeping, as well as adding a young striker to enhance the team's attacking line.

Newcastle hopes to strike a balance between developing young talent and retaining key players, while continuing to compete for titles and qualify for the Champions League, making signings like Bilal El Khannouss a strategic step towards the future.

It is worth noting that Stuttgart's management is moving to activate the option to buy Bilal El Khannouss's contract, following the distinguished performances he has delivered since moving to the German club, as confirmed by "Bild" newspaper, which will intensify competition for the player's services in the upcoming transfer market.
