According to a report from the Daily Express, Newcastle United and Leicester City are both interested in signing Metz striker Habibou Diallo in the January transfer window.
The 24-year-old has been simply outstanding this season for the French outfit. Last season he scored 26 goals to inspire his side to promotion, and this season, he has already found the net eight times in 12 appearances in Ligue 1.
Therefore, it doesn’t come as a huge surprise that Premier League clubs are starting to take note of the Senegal international. The report claims that both the Magpies and the Foxes are closely monitoring him ahead of the winter transfer window.
