Steve McClaren has reportedly added West Bromwich Albion's Saido Berahino to his list of targets as Newcastle United prepare for a potentially busy summer in the transfer market.
The Magpies are expected to invest heavily in the squad after appointing McClaren earlier this week, and signing a striker is expected to be a priority.
Queens Park Rangers forward Charlie Austin has been linked with a move, but The Mirror claims that McClaren is also interested in Berahino.
Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur were rumoured to be interested in the England Under-21 international, who scored 20 goals in all competitions last season.
The report suggests that Newcastle would be eager to sign both forwards, but the Baggies are likely to demand £20m for Berahino.
Newcastle are also reportedly eager to sign Tom Ince from Hull City.
