Newcastle, Fulham keen on former Schalke midfielder Bentaleb

Schalke midfielder Nabil Bentaleb is again being targeted by clubs in the Premier League.

Bentaleb is indefinitely suspended by Schalke, as both parties seek to terminate their relationship.

He could move in January or on a free transfer in the summer.

According to the Sunday Mirror, Newcastle United and Fulham are interested in signing Bentaleb.

He was on loan at Newcastle during the second half of last season and did a solid job.

But he did not impress enough to earn a permanent move.

Now it appears Magpies boss Steve Bruce and Fulham manager Scott Parker may go head to head in an attempt to sign Bentaleb.
