Newcastle have been warned against signing Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang as Tony Cascarino does not believe the disgraced former Arsenal captain is the right January signing for the Magpies.
Eddie Howe's side are reported to have made contact with Arsenal over a potential move for the Gabon striker, while Barcelona and Juventus have been touted with interest after his Emirates exile.
The 32-year-old was stripped of the Gunners captaincy in December following his latest 'disciplinary breach' at the club.
Aubameyang has not featured in Mikel Arteta's side since a five-minute cameo against Everton and has been linked with a move away from Arsenal in the transfer window.
