Newcastle United are targeting as many as FOUR Arsenal players for this month's transfer window.

The Telegraph says Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is the most high profile of those being considered.

Mikel Arteta has chosen not to select his forward, who is the club's highest paid player.

A move away, sooner rather than later, could prove the best solution for both parties and Newcastle are keen.

He is one of several forwards who could be on their way out of north London with Eddie Nketiah another.

The striker has rejected the offer of a new deal and will be a free agent in the summer.

As a result Arsenal could look to cut their losses with Newcastle also keen on the Englishman, who would provide more firepower.

In the middle of the park Newcastle could also look to take advantage of the lack of minutes being given to Mohamed Elneny.

He, like Aubameyang, will jet off to Africa this month which could complicate his signing, but he remains on their radar.

Rob Holding is the fourth Gunners star to be linked with a move to St James' Park.

He is currently behind Ben White and Gabriel in the pecking order which may factor in to any decision he makes on his future.
