Steve Bruce has confirmed Newcastle are interested in signing Arsenal midfielder Joe Willock on a permanent transfer following a successful loan spell at St James' Park.
The 21-year-old has been in fine form for the Magpies since arriving in January and has scored four goals in 10 appearances, including the winner against West Ham last weekend and an equaliser at Anfield on Saturday.
According to The Telegraph, Arsenal are open to selling Willock this summer but will command a fee of around £20million.
Newcastle are expected to be at the front of the queue for his signature, considering how much the the England Under-21 international has enjoyed his time on Tyneside.
Willock has struggled to break into Arsenal's first team on a consistent basis and a move away from the Emirates may prove best for his development.
Newcastle have utilised him as an impact substitute recently, but if he were to move to St James' Park on a permanent basis; it's believed Bruce would make him an integral part of the team next season.
