Newcastle United are looking to sign the highly rated Lyon striker Myziane Maolida.

According to L’Equipe, the Magpies are interested in the player and they have already begun talks with the Ligue 1 outfit regarding a transfer.

There is no doubt that Newcastle need to improve their attack and Maolida could prove to be a quality addition. Although the 19-year-old is not quite ready to lead Benitez’s attack just yet, he could be a superb option for the Premier League outfit.

Maolida is rated very highly by the Lyon staff and it will be interesting to see whether Aulas is ready to sell a prized young talent.
