Newcastle United interested in Aleksandar Mitrovic?

Aleksandar Mitrovic emerges as a transfer target for Newcastle United, according to reports.

Anderlecht's young striker Aleksandar Mitrovic has emerged as a transfer target for Newcastle United, according to reports.

The 20-year-old has scored 17 goals this season, and had been linked with a move to Swansea City.

It is the Magpies that have now emerged as the favourites for Mitrovic's signature though, according to the Daily Star.

However, Mitrovic has distanced himself from any such move at this stage in his career.

"There is talk of Benfica interest, along with Newcastle United and Borussia Monchengladbach, but I don't know anything. I have four more years on my contract and I'm happy here at Anderlecht," he told Portuguese sports newspaper O Jogo.

Mitrovic, who joined Anderlecht from Partizan Belgrade in 2013, has also represented Serbia on 10 occasions, scoring once.
