Newcastle have made Nottingham Forest’s Morgan Gibbs-White one of their main summer transfer targets as they grapple with Profit and Sustainability Rules.
There are fears to keep within the Premier League’s financial restrictions one of their stars – almost certainly the talismanic Bruno Guimaraes - could have to be sacrificed to enable manager Eddie Howe to strengthen in different areas.
Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester City are admirers of the combative Brazilian who has a release clause of around £100 million.
And at least that would give Howe the spending power to work his way down a short list of possible close season buys which includes Forest midfielder Gibbs-White.
The England Under 21 player has been a revelation at the City Ground this season and the £50million-rated star has other admirers in the Premier League including Arsenal.

The Toon have also been monitoring Gibbs-White’s Forest team-mate, Welsh international Neco Williams who can operate in either full-back positions or in midfield, Leicester City's Kieran Dewsbury-Hall – also wanted by Brighton – and Arsenal’s Emile Smith-Rowe.
It’s why Newcastle would want to have Guimaraes’ future resolved early in the summer giving Howe a clearer picture of how big his transfer budget will be.
