Newcastle United's star attracts continued Bundesliga interest

Newcastle United came close to parting ways with young striker William Osula on deadline day after interest from Aston Villa and Eintracht Frankfurt reached an advanced stage.

Eintracht Frankfurt lined up a £30m [$40m] deal for the Danish forward and had everything prepared before the move collapsed late in the day as Villa also tried to secure his services.

Ajax were also reportedly offered Osula in the final hours of the window but the Dutch giants chose not to pursue a deal which left the striker still in Eddie Howe’s squad.

Osula only turned 21 this summer and his reputation has grown quickly since leaving Sheffield United where he had made senior appearances as a teenager.
