Newcastle United are interested in Juventus striker Moise Kean.
Kean is in the second of a two season loan at Juve.
Turin sources say Juve are obligated to make the move permanent come summer for £24million - and that's on top of the £6million loan fee that has already been paid.
The 22-year-old had shown much of the inconsistency that weighed him down at Goodison Park, but five goals in five game prior to the World Cup break may have changed the picture somewhat.
It's suggested Juventus are 'afraid of losing' the Italian once they make the move a permanent one, with Eddie Howe's Magpies keen on bringing him back to the Premier League and Kean 'eager to redeem himself in England after his bad experience with Everton.'
