Newcastle United fancy signing Noa Lang as their search for a winger takes them towards the Club Brugge star.
The Magpies have secured three signings this summer with a keen focus placed on bolstering Eddie Howe’s back line.
Left back Matt Targett has joined permanently after a successful loan spell.
Goalkeeper Nick Pope and defender Sven Botman has now joined too, giving Newcastle an impressive defensive setup moving forward.
The attention must now turn to attacking additions and a new winger will be vital to Howe’s plans.
Newcastle United fancy signing Noa Lang
Newcastle need to add another winger to support Allan Saint-Maximin down the flanks and a host of names have been linked.
Moussa Diaby is the main name in the mix but Newcastle could now look towards Belgium with Club Brugge star Lang.
The Athletic report that Newcastle have been watching Lang ahead of a potential move for the Dutch wide man this summer.
Lang, formerly of Ajax, racked up nine goals and 15 assists for Club Brugge last season having dazzled in his debut season with 17 goals and 11 assists.
The 23-year-old would be an exciting addition for Newcastle and it would come just weeks after Lang was backed for a move to Tyneside.
Scout David Webb – formerly of Tottenham Hotspur and Huddersfield Town – suggested that he felt Lang would make a big impact for a club like Newcastle.
Webb also compared Lang to Emile Smith Rowe, hailing him as a ‘potent attacking threat’.
Those comments came less than a month ago and it now seems that Newcastle really are interested in securing Lang.
Lang is one of just a number of names on Newcastle’s list right now but after interest from Arsenal, the Magpies could offer another route into the Premier League for the left-sided wide man.
