Newcastle United have approached Arsenal for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
The Mirror says Newcastle want Arsenal outcast Aubameyang on loan – with a view to a £20million summer deal.
The relegation-threatened Magpies have sounded out the Gunners about taking the 32-year-old striker for the rest of the season including an option to make the move permanent.
Aubameyang's Arsenal days look to be numbered after he was stripped of the captaincy by boss Mikel Arteta last month for an alleged breach of discipline.
The Gabon star, who is now away on Africa Cup of Nations duty, has been banished from the first team and hasn't figured since the 2-1 defeat at Everton on December 6.
Aubameyang seems unlikely to play for the club again, and could become the first marquee signing of the new Magpies ownership, as Eddie Howe's side continue to battle against relegation at the foot of the Premier League.
