Newcastle United transfer rumour round-up as Magpies to battle Chelsea for Juventus star

Your Newcastle United transfer round-up for Thursday, March 3.

French source Jeunes Footeux claims Newcastle and Everton are battling it out for Montreal Impact midfielder Djordje Mihailovic.

The USA international is in electric form in the MLS - bagging four goals and 16 assists last season - placing a host of European clubs on high alert.

Mihailovic has just over a year left on his current deal so would be available for a modest fee in the summer and, at 23-years-old, has years ahead of him to develop further.

Forgotten man Miguel Almiron famously signed from the States to break Newcastle’s 14-year transfer record in January 2019.

The same outlet names Juventus misfit Adrien Rabiot as a potential Toon target at the end of the campaign.
