Newcastle United are interested in Real Madrid goalkeeper Kiko Casilla.

And Benitez is now keen to use those links to his advantage, and help Newcastle take some of their exciting talents on temporary spells.

The Magpies have struggled to get deals for many of their initial transfer targets over the line so far this summer.

But Benitez feels that he could have more luck by returning to his former club for new players.

Newcastle are already eyeing up a move for Kiko Casilla, as Benitez looks to bring in a new goalkeeper.

And Casilla could be the first of many players to arrive at Newcastle from Madrid over the coming years.

Newcastle want to take Madrid’s brightest stars, on the condition that they can offer them first team football at Premier League level.
