Newcastle United-owned Fulham striker Aleksandar Mitrovic is reportedly on the radar of West Ham United and Wolverhampton Wanderers in the summer transfer window.

Newcastle United will demand at least £20 million for Aleksandar Mitrovic, with Fulham, West Ham United and Wolverhampton Wanderers all interested, according to The Northern Echo.

It has been reported that the price of Mitrovic, who joined Fulham on loan from Newcastle in the January transfer window, could rise even higher should the striker impress for Serbia at the 2018 World Cup finals in Russia this summer.

Newcastle are claimed to be unlikely to make a final decision on the future of 23-year-old striker before the World Cup.

According to The Northern Echo, West Ham and Wolves are interested in Mitrovic, with Fulham also claimed to be keen on making his loan deal permanent in the summer transfer window.

Profit for Newcastle United

According to The Northern Echo, Newcastle paid Anderlecht in the summer of 2015 for a transfer fee of £13m.

With Magpies manager Rafael Benitez clearly not fancying the former Partizan star, selling him for £20m would mean a profit of £7m, and that would certainly be a coup for the Premier League club.

Mitrovic has scored 11 goals and provided one assist in 13 Championship starts for Fulham since his loan move from Newcastle in the January transfer window.
