Newcastle United could make a move for Dušan Vlahović, with the Serbian striker potentially available as a free agent, according to a report from Sports Boom via EPL Index.

The report claims Eddie Howe's side are weighing up whether to intensify their interest in the Juventus forward, who has struggled to nail down a regular starting role in Turin. With Vlahović's contract situation reportedly making him obtainable without a transfer fee, Newcastle are said to view him as an attractive option to bolster their attacking options.

It's understood the Magpies have long been searching for reinforcements up front, and a free transfer for a player of Vlahović's calibre would represent shrewd business if it materialises. However, as things stand this remains speculation rather than a concrete deal, and Newcastle will face competition from elsewhere in Europe if they do decide to pursue him seriously.

Nothing is imminent, but the interest reportedly exists on Tyneside.
