Newcastle and Stoke in pursuit of Schalke's Sam

Schalke winger Sidney Sam could be on his way to the Premier League this summer.

The Germany international, 27, is out of favour in Gelsenkirchen and may look to move on at the end of the season.

Bild reports that both Newcastle United and Stoke City are again keen on the former Bayer Leverkusen ace after failing with bids in January.

Sam opted to remain at Schalke in the winter with the view of forcing his way into Roberto Di Matteo's side but he has started just once in 2015 for a total of seven Bundesliga line-ups this term and could soon be on his way out the Veltins-Arena exit door.
