Newcastle United are reportedly interested in signing Romelu Lukaku at the end of this season.
According to a report by CalcioMercatoWeb, Newcastle could sign the Belgian international if they manage to qualify for the Champions League at the end of the season.
Lukaku is currently on loan at Inter Milan and will return to Chelsea at the end of the season. The 29-year-old is unwanted at Stamford Bridge, and the Blues will look to sell him permanently during the summer transfer window.
Newcastle certainly have the financial wherewithal to bring the player to St James’ Park and it will be interesting to see if they can agree a deal with the Blues in the coming months.
The Magpies are currently third in the league table, and there’s no reason they can’t finish in the top four.

Meanwhile, club director Dan Ashworth signed the player during his time at West Brom, and this time he is looking to meet the Belgian once again in Newcastle.
Lukaku hasn’t been at his best since joining Chelsea for the second time, but he could be a useful addition for Newcastle if he can regain his sharpness and confidence.
