What are the latest speculations surrounding Newcastle United as the transfer window nears its midway point?
The Magpies have once again been connected with Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin, who has long been a target for Eddie Howe’s side.
According to the Chronicle Live, Newcastle are keeping an eye on the Englishman’s predicament, since his contract at Goodison Park expires at the conclusion of the season.
It implies that international clubs can speak with the 27-year-old and try to recruit him on a pre-contract for the summer, with Italian clubs Atalanta and Fiorentina reportedly interested.

Newcastle were apparently interested in him last summer, but were put off by the Toffees’ £37 million asking price.
The Englishman has two goals in 19 Premier League outings this season.
Injuries have hampered many of his recent campaigns, making it difficult for him to maintain consistency.
In addition to reinforcing their offensive, Newcastle are apparently pursuing defensive reinforcements. According to sources in Spain, Newcastle are one of a handful of English clubs contemplating a move for Sevilla FC defender Loïc Badé.
The centre back recently signed a contract extension with the Spanish club that will last until 2029 and has a £50 million release clause; nevertheless, it is believed that the cash-strapped club will be obliged to accept a bargain price for the defender.
Newcastle have lately recovered from a difficult start to the season, and might these signings be the key to maintaining their momentum?
