Newcastle United transferred Yankuba Minteh to Brighton to adhere to financial regulations at the beginning of the season. Discussions have arisen regarding the possibility of Newcastle attempting to re-sign him in the future. A report from the Daily Mail indicated that Newcastle lacks a buyback clause for Minteh, meaning they would need to pay a premium if they intend to reacquire him. Brighton reportedly paid approximately £33 million for Minteh. Considering his recent performances, it appears highly improbable that Newcastle will be able to re-sign him soon, as Brighton would likely seek a significant profit.
