Newcastle are ready to do battle with three other Premier League clubs to sign Benfica winger Franco Cervi, according to reports in The Sun.

West Ham, Brighton and Swansea are also reportedly monitoring the £20million-rated Argentine.

Cervi has had a successful season with the Portuguese outfit, having started 27 of their 31 top-flight games this season but the 23-year-old is reportedly eager to move to England at the end of the season.

Magpies boss Rafa Benitez is desperate to add a left winger to his squad this summer and Cervi appears the perfect match, especially if they can’t acquire Chelsea man Kenedy for another season.

Cervi, known as ‘Little Chucky’ by fans hails from Rosario which is also home to Argentina superstars including Lionel Messi, Angel di Maria, Ezequiel Lavezzi, Mauro Icardi, Maxi Rodriguez, Ever Banega and Ezequiel Garay.

According to transfrmrkt he has dual nationality, Argentina and Italy, so I would guess he has an EU passport.

See there is a reason behind all this madness.

Would have thought a £20 million left sided winger was towards the bottom of the list of potential signings!

This season the team has only played really well, irrespective of opposition, when fielding 2 genuine winners playing near the top of their abilities.
Next season they'll be only 3 wingers in the squad (assuming there isn't a jnr or 2 coming through) and that just won't get the job done.

I expect is to be after a replacement for Skalak but not for £20m. I’m out.
If it's just a Skalak replacement maybe we should see who's available from a team like Sunderland.
