Newcastle ‘put Chelsea outcast midfielder at the top of their transfer wishlist ahead of superstar ex-Arsenal target’

NEWCASTLE have reportedly put Chelsea misfit Conor Gallagher at the top of their transfer wishlist.

That’s despite also holding interest in former Arsenal target Dominik Szoboszlai.

Eddie Howe looks set to seal a brilliant top four finish for Toon after losing just five matches all season.

Newcastle also boast the joint-best defence with champions elect Manchester City.

But Howe is still keen to bolster his squad with high-quality reinforcements this summer.

He is particularly eager to add a new midfielder.

And the Mail claims Gallagher is Howe’s preferred choice for the role.

The Chelsea ace, 23, has made 42 appearances following last season’s loan at Crystal Palace.

But Gallagher only has three goals to his name.

And because he is an academy product, Chelsea are reportedly ready to cash in for an immediate profit.

Newcastle boss Howe also likes the look of RB Leipzig star Szoboszlai, sending scouts to watch the Hungarian against Werder Bremen on Sunday.

But he prefers to sign players with Premier League experience this summer.

And a deal for Gallagher is expected to be a “simple” one.

Meanwhile, Newcastle will also target a deal for Leicester playmaker James Maddison.

The Foxes will struggle to keep hold of their star man should they go down.

And yesterday’s 3-0 defeat to Liverpool means they are two points off safety with just two games remaining.

Howe also wants to strengthen at left-back, and Arsenal’s Kieran Tierney is his preferred choice there.

But with the Scot recently proving to be a reliable stand-in for Oleksandr Zinchenko, the Gunners could demand a fee out of Newcastle’s price range.
