Newcastle join Aurelien Tchouameni race
Newcastle have reportedly joined the race for Monaco defensive midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni “in the last few days”.
That’s according to Italian publication Sports Mediaset, who claim the Magpies are rivalling Serie A giants Juventus for his signature.
Tchouameni was signed by Monaco from Bordeaux last summer – playing 65 times and scoring five goals.
Indeed, his combative performances in Ligue 1 earned his first senior call-up for the France national team in August.
