The 28-year-old centre-back has become the centre of a transfer saga involving Newcastle, who are desperate to take him to St. James’ Park in this month’s window.

 

Sevilla have rejected offers from Newcastle for the defender and have dug in their heels in order to keep him at the club beyond the end of the ongoing transfer period.

 

 

Newcastle have offered to treble his wages and two other clubs, including one from London, are also in talks to sign Carlos in the final third of the winter window.

 

Carlos has indicated that he will continue at Sevilla, but according to Spanish outlet Sevilla.ABC.es, the defender has not ruled out any possibility.

 

 

He is focused on the present and has remained a thorough professional behind the scenes at Sevilla.

 

But the defender has not ruled out the possibility of a transfer in the final ten days of the transfer window; another Premier League club, unnamed but from London, are also keen.

 

 

It should give Newcastle, who have struggled in negotiations with a stubborn Sevilla this month, hope a deal could be done.

 

Carlos is keeping his options open in the final days of the window as Newcastle push to sign him.
