Newcastle United defender Jamaal Lascelles has been linked with Liverpool and Everton in the summer of 2018.

Chelsea and Arsenal are also reported to be interested in the former Nottingham Forest defender, who is one of the best and most important players in the current Newcastle team.

The 24-year-old defender is playing well for the Magpies at the moment and will be a key figure in the Premier League game against Liverpool at Anfield on Saturday evening.
Liverpool have some of the best attacking players in the Premier League, such as Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah, and it will be a massive test for Lascelles.
If Lascelles stands his ground and makes life tough for the Liverpool attackers, then it is only going to make the Reds and Everton take more interest in him.

Everton could do with a young and talented defender, while Liverpool would be wise to pair Lascelles with Virgil van Dijk at the back next season.
Lascelles could make himself more attractive to Liverpool and Everton if he turns up with a big performance at Anfield this weekend.
