Newcastle watching Anderlecht striker Aleksandar Mitrovic

Anderlecht's Serbian striker Aleksandar Mitrovic is being watched by Newcastle United.

The Daily Mirror says the Magpies is in the market for another striker, despite Ayoze Perez's recent good form.

Centre-forward Mitrovic's contract expires in 2018 and could be available for around £5m.

The 20-year-old has notched 52 goals in his 127 career appearances so far, including 23 from just 47 Belgian league games for the Brussels outfit.
