Newcastle are planning a move for AC Milan attacker Rafael Leao.
La Repubblica says Newcastle and Paris Saint-Germain have so far made the biggest efforts to try and recruit Leao, who is represented by Jorge Mendes.
The former Lille ace currently earns around £25,000 a week on a deal set to expire in 2024.
It's claimed that the Magpies and PSG would both be willing to quadruple his salary this summer.
Milan are also eager to keep Leao, and reportedly opened talks with him last week.
They are willing to offer him a boost to £70k a week - but he wants more.
It has previously been reported that Milan will demand between £60million and £70m if they are to sell Leao this summer.
He is believed to be happy at San Siro, and is willing to stay for the right contract.
