Noor way Nic is going to Toon yet

- BY SIMON BIRD

FEYENOORD have warned Newcastle will have to pay an “excessive amount” to land Nicolai Jorgensen.

The Denmark striker, 27, is set for a stand-off with his Dutch club after the Toon pledged to double his wages at St James’ Park.

But Feyenoord are not desperate to sell and want more than £20million.

Jorgensen is believed to be open to moving to Tyneside next week, but Newcastle will have to up their offer of around £13m.

The swoop could be part-funded by selling Aleksandar Mitrovic to relegation rivals Brighton.
