Sarr could be winging his way into Toon

-

WATFORD winger Ismaila Sarr could be a Newcastle player next season.

Representa­tives for the Senegalese internatio­nal are believed to have met with Toon chiefs over a potential £40million move.

Sarr has bagged 24 goals in 91 appearance­s for the Hornets since arriving from Rennes in 2019.

A winger to play on the opposite flank to Allan Saint-maximin would be a logical target for Newcastle this summer and the 24-year-old fits the bill.

Watford are all but relegated from the top flight and keeping their star asset appears unlikely offering the Magpies an opportunit­y to pounce.

Meanwhile, sources in Germany claim Toon target Jeremiah St Juste is wanted by Sporting Lisbon but prefers a move to the Premier League.

The pacey Mainz centre-back, 25, was linked with Newcastle in January but missed out on a move as the club preferred top-flight experience.

A £10million price tag has been slapped on him by his club.
