Newcastle United youngster Rodrigo Vilca reportedly has a number of teams chasing him from overseas.
According to the Chronicle, the Peruvian starlet is the subject of interest from sides from the Eredivisie in the Netherlands and the Belgian First Division A.
The 21-year-old is yet to make his first-team bow after joining the club in the summer from Deportivo Municipal for around £180,000.
It’s claimed coaches are pleased with the way Vilca has adapted to life in England coming from South America, and he could now head out on loan in the next stage of his development.
Supposedly Carlisle United have expressed interest, but the Chronicle say a move there in unlikely.
The player’s agent has supposedly been fielding calls from teams from abroad, but the Magpies are said to be currently undecided about whether to permit him a move.
Vilca should get loan move
If coaches are happy with his progression so far, then perhaps a loan move for the rest of 2020/21 makes sense.
At the age of 21, Vilca needs to be playing and ideally, he needs to be playing senior football.
Dutch teams and the Eredivisie have a good reputation when it comes to developing younger players, so perhaps Newcastle should work with Vilca’s agent and try and secure him a move there.
