Newcastle are reportedly interested in signing Barcelona’s Munir El Haddadi.
Rafael Benitez has voiced his frustrations in recent weeks about the lack of transfer activity at Tyneside this season, despite signing six new players, and is planning to make more additions before the window closes.
With the Magpies failing to score in two Premier League games, it is clearly evident that attacking reinforcements are needed.
Munir has an impressive CV for a player aged just 21 – two La Liga trophies, two Copa del Reys and the 2015 Champions League.

Newcastle fans took to Twitter to express their view on the player. Here are some of the selected tweets:
