Newcastle have reportedly been in regular contact with Timo Werner's agent following the club's £305million Saudi takeover.
Newcastle became the wealthiest club in the world after Amanda Staveley, Mehrdad Ghodoussi and the Saudi Public Investment Fund bought out Mike Ashley.
Now the Magpies are looking to reinforce their squad and have identified Werner as a potential target for the January transfer window, according to Bild.
Chelsea signed the 25-year-old in June 2020 for £48m. However, he failed to replicate the same form he demonstrated at Leipzig.
