LYON defender Samuel Umtiti would consider a move to Newcastle, according to his agent.
Samuel Umtiti would be open to a move to Newcastle
The Newcastle Chronicle claim the Magpies are prepared to make a £10million move for the 22-year-old in the summer if they stay in the Premier League.
But Steve McClaren's side reportedly face competition from top-flight rivals Arsenal and Chelsea.
The representative told France Foot 01: “I was contacted in recent weeks by English agents who discussed the idea of Newcastle.
“But honestly, not a single concrete offer has been made at this point. We would consider an offer from Newcastle and the interest of other clubs who will eventually position themselves this summer.”
