Newcastle United are reportedly interested in securing the signing of midfielder Nicolas Seiwald from RB Leipzig.
Seiwald joined the Bundesliga side from RB Salzburg in 2023 and he has made over 100 appearances for the club across the last three seasons.
The 25-year-old has been capped 51 times for Austria and has forged a reputation in Germany as being one of the best midfield spoilers in the league.
TEAMtalk have reported that Newcastle have made enquiries for the player as they look to address their current lack of options in midfield.
The centre of midfield remains the number one priority for new manager Matthias Jaissle as the new Premier League season moves onto the horizon.
Sandro Tonali and Bruno Guimaraes have departed for Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal respectively and the Magpies remain in the market for a midfielder despite the arrival of youngster Aladji Bamba from Monaco.
Newcastle retain an interest in Bayern Munich midfielder Joao Palhinha, while they have so far failed to secure a move for Marseille's Pierre-Emile Hojberg.
Jaissle's side begin the new Premier League season at home to Liverpool this weekend and the club's supporters will be hoping to see more new faces before the end of the transfer window.
