Steve Bruce has confirmed that Newcastle are interested in signing Arsenal midfielder Joe Willock, following a successful loan spell at St James' Park.
The 21-year-old has been in fine form for the Magpies since arriving in January scoring three goals in nine appearances, including the winner against West Ham last weekend that moved Bruce's side eight points clear of the bottom three.
According to the Telegraph Arsenal are open to selling Willock for a fee of around £20 million, and Newcastle should be at the front of the queue considering how much the the England Under-21 international has enjoyed his time on Tyneside.
