Newcastle monitoring Bayer Leverkusen teenager Florian Wirtz
The attacking midfielder has been very impressive for German side Leverkusen in the Bundesliga this season.
Wirtz has scored six goals and six assists in 12 games across all competitions, with Sport Bild claiming the new English billionaire club Newcastle may be looking to sign him in January or the summer.
Their chief scout, Geoff Lockhart, was in Germany to watch Leverkusen take on Cologne during a 2-2 draw in the Bundesliga last weekend.
Wirtz played 77 minutes in the game. Leverkusen value the starlet at roughly £84 million.
