Aston Villa and West Ham also interested in wingerNewcastle could sell Allan Saint-Maximin to Saudi club
Newcastle are close to beating Aston Villa and West Ham to the signing of the Leicester winger, Harvey Barnes.
Eddie Howe wants to increase his options on the left wing and Newcastle are expected to win the race for Barnes, who is likely to cost around £35m. West Ham had been in pole position to land the winger, with Villa also in contention, but have been focused on the sale of Declan Rice to Arsenal and have not moved quickly enough.
