Brighton Reject £50m Newcastle Bid for João Pedro

João Pedro (Brighton & Hove Albion)
June 2025

Brighton have turned down a £50m bid from Newcastle for João Pedro. Despite long-standing interest, the offer fell short of Brighton’s valuation. Chelsea are also monitoring the forward, who is open to a summer move.
Newcastle advanced talks this week but failed to meet Brighton’s asking price. Pedro, 23, wants to be a first-choice starter at his next club. Brighton are open to selling, but only for a significantly higher fee.
