Newcastle United are chasing Bolton Wanderers midfielder Mark Davies.

The Evening Chronicle says Newcastle are understood to have Bolton Wanderers star Davies on their summer transfer shortlist.

Owen Coyle believes that Davies is a future England star - and has even hailed the midfield man as the new Gazza.

The Magpies are believed to be keeping tabs on the 23-year-old, with Alan Pardew keen to bolster his options ahead of next season.
