Egyptian international linked
Quote:
Newcastle are one of a number of European clubs being linked with Egyptian captian Ahmed Hassan.
The 30-year-old has made over 100 appearances for his country and was the linchpin of the victorious Egyptian side in the recent African Cup of Nations, winning the Player of the Tournament award.
The midfielder was also part of the national squad that won the tournament in 1998, scoring one of the goals in the 2-0 final victory over South Africa.
Hassan currently plays for Besiktas in Turkey, but is out of contract in the summer and egyptianplayers.com suggests that the Magpies are considering bringing him to England in the summer.
However, Newcastle would face competition from across Europe with Fulham, Werder Bremen, Marseille, Panathinaikos, Dynamo Kiev and Vestel Manisaspor of Turkey all said to be interested in the player.
