Steve Bruce verdict on Sean Longstaff future amid Everton interest

Steve Bruce says that Newcastle United have had no bids for Sean Longstaff.

However, he admitted at his Press conference that his younger brother Matty Longstaff could be sent out on loan.

Longstaff has been linked with Everton with Rafa Benitez keen on the midfielder he handed a debut to in 2018.

Bruce said today "I haven’t heard anything on Sean Longstaff to Everton. I can’t really respond to that.

"As far as I’m concerned, nobody’s come to me and mentioned him.

"I’ve seen it out there on social media, but nothing has come to me.”

When asked about the possibility of adding loans to his squad following the arrival of Joe Willock, Bruce said: "That’s an option. Before you bring anybody in, you’ve got to make room.

"There’s a lot of business to be done.

"We’ll see what becomes available.

"I’ll always ask the question – that’s my job.”
