Nottingham Forest and Newcastle played out a thrilling Premier League match at the City Ground on Sunday, with scouts from Barcelona and Real Madrid among those in attendance.
According to TBR Football, representatives from both Spanish giants traveled to Nottingham to observe Murillo, Alexander Isak, and Bruno Guimaraes.
Barcelona’s primary focus was on Isak, especially given reports that contract negotiations between the Swedish international and Newcastle have reached a standstill.
TBR Football sources reveal that a new agreement is no longer being pursued at St James’ Park, drawing interest not only from Barcelona but also from Arsenal and Chelsea.
Isak showcased his talent by scoring the equalizer in the 54th minute, setting up Newcastle’s comeback, so the Blaugrana scouts likely left impressed by the forward’s performance.
