Newcastle outcast Achraf Lazaar says he would not hesitate to leave the Magpies in the January transfer window if Italian outfit Genoa came calling.

The left sided player, who can play in a defensive or attacking role, has failed to impress during his time on Tyneside. Since joining the club from Serie A's Palermo in the summer of 2016 he has made just ten appearances for the Toon, despite costing a reported £3m.

The 26-year-old Morocco international is a player not many people have heard of, which shows the little impact he has had on the Magpies.
