Newcastle United have become the latest club to show an interest in Bayern Munich’s Turkish star Hamit Altintop according to Tutto Mercato. The 27-year-old is widely expected to leave the Allianz Arena this summer and has been attracting attention from a whole host of European clubs.

The former Schalke player is coveted by Tottenham Hotspur, Galatasaray and Atletico Madrid and more sides can reasonably be expected to join the race. Newcastle, having just gained promotion back to the Premier League, see Altintop as someone who would improve their squad and allow them to once again adjust to top flight football.

A star of Euro 2008, Altintop has not yet admitted where he is likely to be playing his football next season.
