Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur will battle it out for the services of Burnley striker Andre Gray, according to reports from the Chronicle.

Gray has enjoyed a decent Premier League campaign this term, scoring eight goals so far and his contribution has proven to be crucial to Burnley's encouraging campaign in the English top flight.

A number of clubs have been taking note of Gray's exploits this term and now according to reports from the Chronicle, it has been revealed that Championship high-fliers Newcastle will challenge Spurs for the signature of the 25-year-old this summer.

Rafa Benitez is eager to add Premier League quality to his attack if the Magpies gain promotion and Gray will be one of the players he is expected to go after.
