Demba Ba reportedly ponders a move away from Newcastle United this summer after becoming disillusioned with life in the North East.

Newcastle United striker Demba Ba is reportedly unhappy in the North East and is prepared to quit the Sports Direct Arena this summer.

The Senegal international had a prolific start to the season with the Magpies but following Papiss Cisse's arrival in January, the 26-year-old has failed to find the net alongside his strike partner.

It is believed that Chelsea are keen on snapping up the frontman, who is thought to have a release clause worth £7m, according to Goal.com.

Tottenham Hotspur boss Harry Redknapp showed previous interest in Ba, but it is understood that the North London outfit will refrain from making a move in the summer transfer window.

The former West Ham United forward scored 16 goals for the Magpies this season.
