Douglas reveals Newcastle interest

FC Twente defender Douglas has said that he wants to leave Dutch football this summer and has named Newcastle United as one of the interested parties.

The 24-year-old revealed that five clubs are currently interested in his signature.

He told NuSport: "I have spent five years [at Twente] and have done my best for the club.

"I have won the title, the cup - it's time for a next step."

The Brazilian added that the Magpies were not the only club who had made contact.

He also said that he feels he has "outgrown" the Eredivisie.
