Here are the latest Newcastle United evening headlines on Sunday, July 3. Newcastle United are said to still be keen on signing out-of-contract midfielder Jesse Lingard this summer.
The Magpies made Lingard one of their transfer priorities in the winter window, but were unable to agree upon a deal with the England international's then club Manchester United.
Lingard has since departed Old Trafford on a free after playing a bit part role last season. And the Daily Mirror reports Newcastle are still interested in landing the 29-year-old.
Lingard's spell at West Ham during the second half of the 2020/21 campaign showed he could still be a highly effective performer in the Premier League.
