Report: Newcastle United midfielders Sean Longstaff and Isaac Hayden are being tracked by England

According to The Athletic, Newcastle United midfielders Sean Longstaff and Isaac Hayden are being tracked by England boss Gareth Southgate.

The 21-year-old caught his eyes after briefly becoming a key part of erstwhile manager Rafa Benitez’s starting XI last term before an injury ruled him out of the season.

Longstaff featured in 11 games across all competitions after breaking into the team during the second-half of the campaign, but a knee injury ruled him out of action in March.

While he is yet to reach full fitness and is still being carefully managed by the Newcastle medical team, the youngster has continued to impress, playing in all four league games thus far.
