Newcastle United have reached an agreement in principle to sign Dutch defender Sven Botman from Ligue 1 club Lille, the Premier League club has announced.

Botman, 22, is set to join the Magpies on a five-year contract with British media reporting a fee of €37 million ($38.94 million) has been agreed between the two clubs.

The highly sort-after defender was vital member of the Lille team that beat Paris Saint-Germain to the 2021 Ligue 1 title and is vying for a place in the Netherlands World Cup squad having been capped at every level except senior.

"Botman has completed his medical on Tyneside and agreed the terms of a five-year contract," Newcastle said in a statement.

"The formalities of the transfer are set to be concluded this week, following which the 22-year-old will officially become a Newcastle United player."

Newcastle 2021/22 season ratings

NEWCASTLE END OF SEASON RATINGS: (Managers) Eddie Howe: 9. Took over in November with the team in bottom three and without a win from 11 games. Finished the season 11th with 13 wins. Bought well in January, backed by the club's new owners, and revitalised a number players already at the club, including the likes of Jonjo Shelvey, Joelinton and Ryan Fraser. PA

Steve Bruce: 2. Allowed to bring in just one player by then owner Mike Ashley during the summer when he clearly wanted and needed more. Had long lost the backing of fans and left soon after the new Saudi-backed owners took over club. His final game - Bruce's 1,000th match as a manager - was a 3-2 defeat at home to Spurs - with team second bottom and without a win from eight games. Reuters

(Goalkeepers) Martin Dubravka 7. Missed the start of the season due to injury and his return to the team in November was much needed as the two other keepers had failed to convince in his absence. Fine shot-stopper but culpable for a few poor goals and will be a surprise if 33-year-old is still No 1 at start of next campaign. Reuters

Matt Targett: 8. Left-back proved a vital signing on loan from Aston Villa in a position where Newcastle were desperately short.

(Attackers) Allan Saint-Maximin: 8. The great enigma. His pace and trickery make him a defender's worst nightmare and is simply unplayable on his day. But also hugely frustrating for teammates and fans alike with his decision-making, final ball and habit of running down blind alleys. The Frenchman has to add consistency to his game if he wants to reach the next level. Getty

If Newcastle can keep him fit, would be nudging the 20-goal mark. PA

Botman will be Newcastle's third signing after goalkeeper Nick Pope and defender Matt Targett joined earlier this month.

Eddie Howe's side finished 11th in the Premier League last season after failing to winning just once in their first 19 games.

Newcastle are expected to continue their search for more attacking options and have been linked with the Reims striker Hugo Ekitike.

Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin has also been linked with a move to Tyneside.

What is Reform?

Reform is a right-wing, populist party led by Nigel Farage, a former MEP who won a seat in the House of Commons last year at his eighth attempt and a prominent figure in the campaign for the UK to leave the European Union.

It was founded in 2018 and originally called the Brexit Party.

Many of its members previously belonged to UKIP or the mainstream Conservatives.

After Brexit took place, the party focused on the reformation of British democracy.

Former Tory deputy chairman Lee Anderson became its first MP after defecting in March 2024.

The party gained support from Elon Musk, and had hoped the tech billionaire would make a £100m donation. However, Mr Musk changed his mind and called for Mr Farage to step down as leader in a row involving the US tycoon's support for far-right figurehead Tommy Robinson who is in prison for contempt of court.

Financial considerations before buying a property

Buyers should try to pay as much in cash as possible for a property, limiting the mortgage value to as little as they can afford. This means they not only pay less in interest but their monthly costs are also reduced. Ideally, the monthly mortgage payment should not exceed 20 per cent of the purchaser’s total household income, says Carol Glynn, founder of Conscious Finance Coaching.

“If it’s a rental property, plan for the property to have periods when it does not have a tenant. Ensure you have enough cash set aside to pay the mortgage and other costs during these periods, ideally at least six months,” she says. 

Also, shop around for the best mortgage interest rate. Understand the terms and conditions, especially what happens after any introductory periods, Ms Glynn adds.

Using a good mortgage broker is worth the investment to obtain the best rate available for a buyer’s needs and circumstances. A good mortgage broker will help the buyer understand the terms and conditions of the mortgage and make the purchasing process efficient and easier.
