Newcastle chasing Anthony Knockaert

Newcastle have been linked with a move for Guingamp midfielder Anthony Knockaert. The 20-year-old youth prospect has been linked with a 2.5 million EUR move to the Sports Direct Arena as Toon scouts have been monitoring him in action.

Knockaert is very highly rated in France, and is comfortable playing in both striker or on either wing.


"They are in touch with my agent," said the player.


"Now, I take care of my own work and nothing else.


"My agent does not put all that in my mind so I can continue to work in the best way.


"I do my job, many young people take it too seriously."
