Liverpool will sign Spanish sensation Victor Munoz from Osasuna after hijacking Newcastle United
Liverpool have dramatically hijacked Newcastle United’s pursuit of Spanish winger Víctor Muñoz by agreeing to trigger his €40 million release clause at Osasuna.
Liverpool Football Club have sensationally hijacked Newcastle United’s planned acquisition of highly-rated winger Víctor Muñoz from CA Osasuna.
The Reds moved swiftly to trigger the Spanish international’s €40 million release clause after achieving a total breakthrough in personal terms with the player’s representatives.
The sudden development alters what appeared to be a finalized destination for the rising La Liga star.
The Magpies had previously been in advanced negotiations, nearing a structured €35 million deal with the Pamplona-based club.
However, Liverpool’s decisive financial intervention and direct activation of the buyout clause effectively took the decision out of Osasuna’s hands.
The 22-year-old forward, who broke into Spain’s senior squad, is now expected to finalize his high-profile switch to Anfield.
