Newcastle hope to face AS Roma in preseason later this year.
[a href="https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/newcastle-united-invite-serie-side-33828158" target="_blank"]ChronicleLive[/a] says Newcastle chiefs have invited Roma to compete in the annual Sela Cup.
Talks are underway between the two clubs for the Giallorossi to visit Tyneside in August.
Newcastle last played against Roma in 1999 during the Sir Bobby Robson era, with club legend Francesco Totti in the line-up.
Sela's shirt sponsorship ends this season, though there are talks about the Saudi company remaining involved with Newcastle in another capacity.
