Diego Laxalt reports resurface – Newcastle have previously been linked with Uruguayan defender Diego Laxalt, who has struggled for game time since joining Italian giants AC Milan last summer.
The full-back, 26, rarely featured for Milan in the second half of last season, making just 20 league appearances in total.
And, according to Italian outlet Gazzetta dello Sport, Newcastle are one of the clubs interested in Laxalt, along with Italian sides Torino and Atalanta.
The report claims Milan would want £10.7million for the player, who has been capped 17 times by his county and featured at last summer’s World Cup.
