Newcastle United have allegedly set their sights on Watford attacker and long-term Liverpool target Ismaila Sarr, heading into the January transfer market.

Now under the new ownership of the Saudi Public Investment Fund, the club are said to be gearing up for an eye-catching overhaul after the turn of the year, with the new management identifying key zones in need of improvement for the second half of the season.

According to the Daily Mail, the Magpies have now set their sights on the Senegalese star as a prime target, although the Hornets are understood to be unlikely to consider a January deal. The 23-year-old Reds-linked star has caught eyes so far this term, having scored four goals in the opening nine Premier League matches.
