Newcastle United are eyeing West Ham defender Issa Diop.
Foot Mercao says Newcastle are interested in launching a move for Diop before the end of next month.
The Frenchman is also said to be a target for AC Milan, who have already reached out to the Hammers in order to discuss the possibility of a mid-season switch.
Stefano Pioli is reportedly hoping to add to his defensive ranks in the near future, with Simon Kjaer set to miss the rest of the campaign after suffering an anterior cruciate ligament injury.
Meanwhile, Newcastle are believed to be taking a similar approach after conceding 42 goals in the Premier League since the beginning of the season.
