Manchester United’s Scott McTominay has emerged as one of their prime targets to fill the no.6 role as Eddie Howe looks for ways to improve his squad over the summer. Players like Ruben Neves and Joao Palhinha have also emerged as potential options for the Magpies.
Another name that has been continually linked with a move to St James’s Park is Southampton midfielder James Ward-Prowse.
