Newcastle United are linked with signing the Spanish winger.

Newcastle United are already in negotiations to sign Jesus Navas, according to AS.

The Magpies are said to be interested in the Spain international, who is looking for a club after being released from Manchester City this month.

And Spanish outlet AS claim that Newcastle are locked in talks with the 31-year-old, and they’re willing to meet his personal terms.

The report goes on to state that Sevilla, who sold him to Man City in 2013, are interested in bringing him back to Spain, but the presence of another Spaniard in Rafael Benitez might stand Newcastle in good stead.

He was, however, at the Rojiblancos for a decade prior to his City switch, so they might hold a special place in his heart.

Navas won a Premier League title with the Sky Blues under Manuel Pellegrini in 2014, but struggled for regular football under Pep Guardiola last season, making only 12 Premier League starts.
