Newcastle United are interested in Olympique Lyon fullback Malo Gusto.

The Daily Mail says the 19-year-old is wanted by Manchester United also but bids are expected to be shelved until the summer with Lyon asking for at least £35m for January.

The defender, who has played for France at various age-group levels, is one of the club's most prized assets and has been a valuable player this season.

Newcastle are planning ahead with Kieran Trippier now 32.

Seen as an agile full-back who likes to get forward, Gusto has provided width to Lyon's play this season and would be thought to bring the same to Newcastle or Manchester United.
