Mile Swiller has rapidly emerged as one of the best goalkeepers in Serie A, and Newcastle United’s transfer interest in the ex-Benfica player is now being pursued.
earlier this year, sports witness Tottenham’s interest in the 26-year-old player, who was seen as a replacement for Guglielmo Vicario, was covered.
At the time, Roma were believed to want €70 million to sell Swiller, whose value has increased since his arrival in 2022. His growth also attracted scouts from Manchester United and Chelsea, who were impressed.
gazzetta dello sport Have taken a closer look at Swiller’s transfer future, which could potentially be at Newcastle United.
Newcastle United may get transfer exemption
The newspaper has made it clear that AS Roma need to sell by June 30 due to financial fair play concerns. Manu Kone, Wesley and Ivan Ndika are in the running to go, but there is belief that Swiller could also go.
The Serbia international is valued the most compared to others and could witness an Alisson-style exit from Rome.
Newcastle United is one of the clubs monitoring the transfer situation. Chelsea are also interested, with Swiller on the radar of several other international clubs.
Roma signed him for free in 2022. This means that their move out will be reduced to a huge capital gain and will go a long way in alleviating their financial problems over the summer.
They need ‘at least €50m’ to let the player leave, even if they are willing to charge a higher fee. Alisson joined Liverpool for more than €70 million, but it is a net profit that they will accept less this time.
The Giallorossi have already drawn up replacement plans, as Guglielmo Vicario and Marco Carnesecchi are on their shortlist. Both will cost less than €50m.
Swirl can provide stability between the sticks
This season, Newcastle United’s goalkeeping position has seen some instability. Nick Pope has not started in the last few games, with Aaron Ramsdale trusted ahead of him.
Someone like Swiller could prove to be a better fit than this pair. Ever since Daniele De Rossi began managing Roma, he has been playing regularly and making his mark as a courageous shot-stopper. Even on the ball, Swiller has seen improvement under Gian Piero Gasperini.
He’s even younger than Pope and Ramsdale and, as things stand, has a very bright future. So if given the opportunity, Newcastle United should pursue a transfer for Swiller.
