Newcastle United boss Rafael Benitez may consider a move for Real Madrid attacker Lucas Vazquez, according to Spanish journalist Pete Jenson.

Newcastle United manager Rafael Benitez has identified Real Madrid forward Lucas Vazquez as a potential transfer target, according to Spanish journalist Pete Jenson.

The Magpies have made five signings ahead of their return to the Premier League, but Benitez remains in the market and is hoping to make more quality additions before the end of the summer window.

Jenson has suggested that Benitez may return to his homeland to bring in more players, with 26-year-old Vazquez a possible signing if he falls down the pecking order at the Bernabeu.

The football writer is quoted by The Sun as saying: "I think it's one of a few [Spaniards] who might turn up at Newcastle. There is overbooking at Real Madrid and Rafa Benitez does know the club very well.

"He has that vast experience of European football and having been recently at Real Madrid, I think not just Spanish players but Madrid players.

"I think winger Lucas Vazquez is another he might look at and that's one of the advantages of taking Rafa as their manager."

Vazquez made 47 appearances for Real in all competitions last season, but just 17 came from the starting lineup.
