Chelsea to target Carlos Baleba if Enzo Fernandez leaves?

The 25-year-old has struggled to cement his place in the starting line-up this season, and is expected to seek a fresh challenge in the New Year.

Recent reports had claimed that Townsend could seek a temporary move away from White Hart Lane in a bid to secure a spot in the England national side for Euro 2016.

However, The Mail cites that the Magpies could make a formal offer of around &pound8m for the talented attacker.

It is added that Steve McClaren's side are set to move their recruitment team from France in a bid to bring in local talents to the club.

Townsend has earned 10 caps with England.
