Newcastle United are weighing up a move for Flamengo striker Gabriel Barbosa.

The Evening Chronicle says Newcastle were keeping tabs on Gabigol before his sensational two-goal blast in the Copa Libertadores final on Saturday night.

South American sources have indicated that the Magpies are one of the Premier League sides to run the rule over the Inter Milan player.

At 23, Barbosa has been branded a flop by the Italian media after scoring just once in Serie A in the 2016/17 season following a 29.5million move from Santos.

Inter are ready to cash in on the Brazil international with a fee of 20million mooted in recent times.
