Arsenal and Newcastle United are targeting Benfica wing-back Alejandro Grimaldo.

Grimaldo is inside the final year of his contract at Benfica.

The Mirror says both Arsenal and Newcastle are targeting the left-back for the January market.

The Spaniard has no interest in discussing new terms with Benfica and can leave for €10m over the New Year.

Now 26, Grimaldo signed for Benfica after coming through the La Masia academy at Barcelona.
