Palace, Swansea 'eye Mitrovic'

Newcastle United striker Aleksandar Mitrovic is reportedly a January transfer target for both Crystal Palace and Swansea City.

The 22-year-old joined Newcastle from Belgian club Anderlecht in the summer of 2015 and scored nine Premier League goals during his first season in English football.

The Serbian international stayed with the Magpies despite their relegation, but he has only registered three Championship goals this term after being kept out of the team by Dwight Gayle.

According to the Daily Mail, both Palace and Swansea are considering £15m offers for the powerful forward as the duo look to fight off the threat of relegation in the second half of the campaign.

Mitrovic missed the first four games of the 2016-17 campaign after picking up a red card in his last Premier League appearance.
