Lazio midfielder Ousmane Dabo claims Newcastle are interested in bringing him to the Premiership.
The 29-year-old is set to leave the Serie A outfit in the summer, when his contract expires.
Dabo has denied rumours that he has signed a pre-contract agreement with Arsenal.
"Maybe the Gunners are following me," said the French star, "I have not signed anything with Arsenal or any other team.
"I know other English sides have shown some interest. I also heard about Newcastle."
The Toon's hopes of landing Dabo could be dealt a blow with the player insisting he wants to be playing Champions League football next season.

Makes sense that we show interest in him though, would be the type of quick-fix and easy replacement for Bowyer that Shephard would look into.
