Newcastle star linked with a shock move to France- Report

Newcastle United striker Aleksandar Mitrovic has been linked with a shock move to French champions Paris Saint-Germain.

The Serbian striker has found himself behind Dwight Gayle in the pecking order under manager Rafa Benitez this season. The 22-year-old has managed only seven league starts this season for the promotion favourites.

Multiple reports have hinted at a possible summer departure, and now Daily Star are claiming that PSG are keeping tabs on the striker.

The report claims that the Paris club made a tentative enquiry about the striker in January and could reignite their interest in the summer.

Mitrovic arrived at Newcastle with a huge reputation in a £13m move from Anderlecht in the summer of 2015. However, he has failed to live up to the initial hype during his time with the club.

The consensus is that the Magpies will allow their striker to leave for a suitable price in the summer.
