Newcastle United are reportedly eyeing up a potential move for Napoli and Mexico winger Hirving Lozano this summer.

The Lowdown: Attackers wanted

Newcastle are in the market for new attackers in the summer, having recently been linked with the likes of Liverpool winger Diogo Jota and Reims striker Folarin Balogun, who is on loan from Arsenal.

Despite sitting in sixth place in the Premier League table, they are only the 10th highest scorers, and with their defensive record so good, the forward line is the area that they will likely want to strengthen first come the next transfer window.

The Latest: Lozano interest

As per Italian news outlet Il Mattino, the St. James' Park outfit are one of a number of clubs 'interested' in signing Lozano this summer, with both Arsenal and Chelsea also thought to be in the mix.

The Mexico international would 'accept' a move to the Premier League, should Napoli sanction his sale.

The Verdict: Get it done

Lozano boasts plenty of high-level experience at the age of just 27, as he has played 372 games at club level and also boasts 63 senior caps for his country (Transfermarkt).

In those matches, he has managed an impressive 129 goals, mainly operating from the wings.

Hailed as a player with 'unique quality' by his Napoli manager Luciano Spalletti, Lozano would add a different dynamic to the Magpies' attack for next season, and it would be a real coup to sign him ahead of high-flying Arsenal and 'big six' club Chelsea.
