Newcastle have been linked with a move for the Le Havre defender Umut Meras.
As per Fotomac (via Chronicle), the 24-year-old has attracted the attention of the Premier League club and he will cost around £8m.
The player is thought to be a target for Arsenal and Porto as well.
It will be interesting to see if Newcastle make their move for Meras in the coming weeks.
The asking price seems quite reasonable and Newcastle will certainly be able to afford the player.
The Magpies need to improve their full-back positions and Meras could prove to be a decent addition.
