According to reports from The Star (h/t The Express), Newcastle United are interested in signing Marcos Alonso from Chelsea in the summer transfer window once the takeover is completed.
The Magpies are expected to be highly active in the transfer window once their £300m takeover goes through.
Newcastle United owner Mike Ashley has agreed to sell the club to PCP Capital Partners, an organisation backed by the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia.
The report claims that Alonso could become Newcastle’s ”first summer signing’.
The 29-year-old joined Chelsea in 2016 from Fiorentina and has made 140 appearances for the Blues.
