Newcastle are considering a three million euro bid to Sunderland for 15-year-old talent Chris Rigg. The Magpies have been delighted with the young midfielder's ability.

Newcastle broke into the transfer market last summer after paying Real Sociedad 70 million euros for Isak. Apparently, the Magpies want more and are willing to pay huge sums for a young miedfielder. 

According to 'The Sun', the English club are seriously considering paying three million for Sunderland's 15-year-old midfielder Chris Rigg.

This young English talent stands out for his versatility in all midfield positions. In addition, he is already playing at youth level, where he is performing extremely well.

As if that wasn't enough, Rigg has already made his debut with the Black Cats' first team. For this reason, St. James' Park are seriously considering going all in on the market for the youngster.
