Scottish Premiership side left stunned as European club announce transfer of star BEFORE paperwork is completed
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) SERIE A side Lecce have stunned Kilmarnock by parading Corrie Ndaba with a club scarf as the Rugby Park outfit still waited for official deal confirmation. The Irish defender travelled to Italy to complete the formalities of a six-figure transfer after a bid had been accepted. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 Corrie Ndaba in training for Killie Credit: SNS 3 Kilmarnock's Ndaba tussles for the ball against Kelty Hearts Credit: SNS 3 Corrie Ndaba poses with Lecce scarf but Kilmarnock claim the deal hasn't been finalised Credit: X/Lecce But just an hour after Killie's 4-0 Premier Sports Cup victory over East Fife, Lecce posted photos of the 25-year-old with their club colours. On X the club posted: "The footballer Corrie Ndaba arrived in Bressanone in the late afternoon, where he began undergoing medical examinations that will be completed on Monday." But Killie boss Stuart Kettlewell had also told reporters post-match there was "nothing" to report on Ndaba. Killie feel the Italians have jumped the gun believing Ndaba's medical and paperwork have still to be fully completed. But the expectation is he will become a Lecce player within 24-hours. The Republic of Ireland youth international will become the latest player to make the move from Scottish football to Italy. He'll follow in the footsteps of the likes of Bologna's Lewis Ferguson, as well as Josh Doig and Lewis Henderson. Scotland national team stars Scott McTominay and Billy Gilmour had outstanding seasons for Napoli, helping them to lift the Scudetto. McTominay was even named Serie A's player of the year. Ndaba came through the Ipswich youth ranks but never played a competitive league match for the Tractor Boys. Stuart Kettlewell reveals if he regrets quitting Motherwell in exclusive first interview He instead had several loans spells, including one at Killie's local rivals, Ayr United. According to Sky Italy, Ndaba will sign a three-year deal with the option of extending for a further two. Ndaba made 38 appearances in all competitions for Killie last season as a key member of the squad under Derek McInnes.

Newcastle draw up four-man shortlist to replace Alexander Isak as Liverpool sent message
Alexander Isak has informed the Newcastle hierarchy that he wants to leave and Eddie Howe's side have wasted no time by identifying four strikers who could replace him Newcastle have drawn up a shortlist of four strikers in case they're forced to sell Alexander Isak. The Magpies are braced for offers after it emerged on Thursday that Isak, 25, wants to leave St James' Park. His decision follows an enquiry from Liverpool, who signalled that they'd be willing to pay a British-record £120million for the Swede. Newcastle responded by insisting that Isak isn't for sale and Liverpool quickly turned to Hugo Ekitike, who the Magpies also wanted to sign. Despite wrapping up an eye-watering £79m deal with Eintracht Frankfurt for Ekitike, Liverpool remain interested in Isak. Although manager Eddie Howe remains 'confident' that his star won't depart, Newcastle are making contingency plans which could have a chain reaction in the Premier League. A report from the Mail has revealed the four strikers who Newcastle are doing their homework on. Those four are named as Nicolas Jackson, Ollie Watkins, Yoane Wissa and Benjamin Sesko. Howe's side have already made a £25m bid for Wissa - which was immediately rejected by Brentford - while Watkins and Jackson, meanwhile, are on Manchester United's shortlist as they also target a striker. Benjamin Sesko was in talks to join Arsenal before the Gunners ultimately decided on Viktor Gyokeres, who's £63.7m arrival was confirmed on Saturday. Wissa scored 19 times in the league last season for Brentford and with 12 months left on his contract, the 28-year-old is pushing to leave. Watkins is also Premier League-proven, bagging 75 goals and registering 34 assists in 184 top-flight matches for Aston Villa. Jackson, meanwhile, has fallen down the pecking order at Chelsea after they paid £30m for Liam Delap and spent £60m on Joao Pedro. On the other hand, Sesko is a prized asset for RB Leipzig, who are expected to demand around £70m. Who should Newcastle sign if Alexander Isak leaves? Let us know your pick in the comments section. Howe was asked multiple questions about Isak's future at a press conference in Singapore on Saturday. Asked if the Liverpool target would stay, Howe replied: "I said after the Celtic game I certainly hope he stays and I said I was confident he would stay. "I don't see anything that will change that opinion of mine at the moment - but it's football and who knows what the future may bring? We are in a very strong position financially. "We are determined to be successful, be ambitious. We have got a great season ahead of us and we need to add to the squad and continue to improve. The journey will continue in an upward trajectory and that's what we all want." Join our new WhatsApp community and receive your daily dose of Mirror Football content.

Yoane Wissa ‘tells Brentford he will NEVER play for them again' as Newcastle consider Nicolas Jackson instead
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) YOANE WISSA has told Brentford chiefs that he will never play for the club again amid interest from Newcastle, according to reports. And it's claimed that if the Bees continue to play hard ball, the Toon could move on to Chelsea star Nicolas Jackson instead. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 6 Yoane Wissa wants to quit Brentford this summer Credit: Getty 6 Nicolas Jackson has emerged as a target for Newcastle Credit: Getty Wissa, 28, has received serious interest from Newcastle this summer. Brentford recently turned down a £25million Magpies bid for their forward. While the DR Congo international has also attracted strong interest from Nottingham Forest and Tottenham. Wissa left Brentford's pre-season trip to Portugal last week for talks with club chiefs regarding his future. READ MORE IN FOOTBALL Injury horror Ex-Arsenal ace Jenkinson screams for medics and given gas after horror injury According to the Mail's Craig Hope, the striker has now informed Bees bosses that he will refuse to play for the club again. Wissa reportedly feels that he was promised a move this summer and is unhappy that Brentford have reneged on such an agreement. The 19-goal striker is desperate to play in the Champions League and feels that he may not get such an opportunity again. Brentford are eager to hold on to Wissa, having already lost boss Thomas Frank and several members of the Dane's coaching staff to Tottenham, as well as Bryan Mbeumo to Manchester United. BEST ONLINE CASINOS - TOP SITES IN THE UK 6 Eddie Howe is eager to recruit at least one new striker this summer Credit: PA 6 Newcastle are assessing several forward options, amid the bombshell revelation earlier this week that Alexander Isak wants to leave. Eddie Howe's side are targeting RB Leipzig star Benjamin Sesko as a potential replacement for Isak. Dan Burn and Bruno Guimaraes discuss Alexander Isak's future after Newcastle star's transfer bombshell But with Callum Wilson having also departed this summer, Newcastle are on the lookout for a secondary option to either Isak or Sesko. In addition to Sesko, the Mail claim that Chelsea ace Jackson is on Newcastle's list. The 24-year-old has scored 30 goals in 81 appearances for the Blues across the last two seasons, but could be made available for the right price this summer. Newcastle could face competition for Jackson's signature from Manchester united. While SunSport exclusively revealed this week that the Senegalese ace has turned down approaches from Napoli and AC Milan. In addition to Wissa, Sesko and Jackson, Ollie Watkins is admired by Newcastle. Aston Villa aren't thought to be keen on selling the England international this summer, but it remains to be seen whether a big-money bid could change their stance. 6 6 TRANSFER NEWS LIVE - KEEP UP WITH ALL THE LATEST FROM A BUSY SUMMER WINDOW
