Newcastle have taken advantage of UEFA rules as they have reportedly held talks with the representatives of Jean-Clair Todibo after the France defender was denied a move to Manchester United.

Newcastle are on the hunt for a new centre-back, with Jamaal Lascelles, Fabian Schar and Dan Burn all out of contract next summer.
And they are now set for a transfer battle with West Ham and Juventus to get a deal for Todibo over the line.
