Newcastle evening headlines amid Steve Bruce contract reports and Saint-Maximin Everton links

Here are your Newcastle United evening headlines on Friday, July 30.

Newcastle United offer "no comment" status after reports of a new contract for Steve Bruce

Newcastle United have responded with a "no comment" after fresh reports that Steve Bruce is set for a new three-year contract.

The subject of Bruce’s future was always going to return to the agenda on the back of two delayed court cases.

And with his current deal set to expire in May, the Daily Star are reporting Mike Ashley is ready to hand him a new contract.

At this stage, the club or those close to Ashley are yet to respond on the subject of Bruce’s future.

However, he stated last year he would never walk away from his current role as head coach.

Both Ashley and Bruce were the target of negative chants as Newcastle salvaged a draw at Rotherham on Tuesday night.

Everton's reassuring response to £50million Allan Saint-Maximin Newcastle speculation

Allan Saint-Maximin is at the centre of fresh transfer speculation as Newcastle's summer continues to frustrate.

The winger has been linked with a move to Everton after missing the midweek friendly at Rotherham through illness.

Here's the verdict of experts on both sides on the transfer rumours which have worried United fans.

Newcastle United unveil new Castore away kit for 2021/22 season

Newcastle United have revealed their Castore away kit design for the upcoming 2021/22 season.

Jacob Murphy, Miguel Almiron and club captain Jamaal Lascelles were among the first-team stars to model the black and gold design for the club's launch on Friday morning.

The design is dominated by black and dark grey horizontal stripes with a white and gold collar. The strip does not feature the same grandad collar that was resurrected for the home kit in homage to Kevin Keegan's Entertainers in the 1990s.

United will also line up in black shorts and black socks with a gold turnover, but alternate gold shorts and socks will be available for matches in the event of a colour clash.
