Newcastle United are trying to steal a march on Premier League rivals Manchester United, after they upped their bid for RB Leipzig striker, Benjamin Sesko.
According to Sky Germany, their new offer is 69.7m 80m as a fixed fee plus add-ons.
The Magpies first offer was 65.3m plus 4.36m 75m5m in bonuses.
Newcastle are in the market for a new striker, after Callum Wilson left at the end of his contract and the uncertainty surrounding Alexander Isak.
Isak is heavily linked with a switch to Liverpool, with the Premier League champions having seen one offer rejected already.
