Newcastle have reportedly identified Juventus midfielder Khephren Thuram as a potential replacement for Sandro Tonali.
Tonali, 25, has been heavily linked with a move away from St James’ Park this summer, with Man United and Man City both keen.
With qualification for next season’s Champions League looking unlikely, Newcastle may be forced to sell one of their biggest assets.
According to Calciomercato IT, Newcastle are preparing for life without the Italian and have identified Juve’s Thuram as a potential replacement.
Eddie Howe’s side may not have a free run at the Juventus ace, however, with Man United, Liverpool, PSG, and Inter Milan all circling.
