Report: Newcastle eye move for Loris Benito

According to reports from The Sun, Newcastle United boss Rafael Benitez is keen to sign Young Boys defender Loris Benito on a free transfer during the summer transfer window.

Benitez has guided the Magpies to Premier League safety for the second season running but doubts remain over his long future at the club. The Spaniard’s contract at the Tyneside club is set to expire at the end of the season, but he has dropped hints that he wants to continue.

It seems the former Liverpool manager is making plans already for the summer, in case, he sticks around.
