Reports have linked Liverpool with a move to re-sign Lyon star Tyler Morton, but Newcastle United are also interested in bringing him back to the Premier League. “They’ll have scouts over there watching him regularly, so they’ll know all of the pros and cons of his game, and they’ll know how he is behind the scenes as well.

“Newcastle will know all about him, and we know that they still need to strengthen in midfield, I’m not convinced they were completely satisfied with their business in the summer. “Morton could be a good option to strengthen in that position, especially if he continues to perform will in France, and he could be tempted back to the Premier League.” Liverpool sold Morton for £15m: How much would it cost to sign him?

Given that the midfield transfer market was inflated beyond reason in the 2026 summer transfer window and Morton has a contract with Lyon until 2030, it’s likely to be an overly expensive operation to bring him back to England. Even if Morton wanted the move, it would not make financial sense to sign him in January.
