Premier League top four hopefuls Newcastle United want to sign Bayern Munich and Canada defender Alphonso Davies next season.

Davies is Bayern’s number-one left-back and will not come cheap. The 22-year-old has made 26 appearances for Bayern in all competitions this season, scoring two goals and providing six assists.
He is valued at €70.00m, meaning that Newcastle will have to break their transfer record to land him. However, given their wealth under Saudi owners, the Magpies can easily afford the player and still not break FFP rules.
