Lewis Hall looks set to be the next player out of the door at Newcastle United this summer as the club look to bring in fellow left-back Joaquin Seys.

Reports have emerged that claim the Magpies are interested in signing the Club Brugge star this summer transfer window.

The Belgian side are under no pressure to sell and would want between £26million and £29.8m for the Belgium international if they were to part ways.

However, this new link simply indicates that Hall will likely be sold this summer transfer window.

The 21-year-old has been heavily linked away for a number of weeks after another impressive campaign.

Now, it appears that the Magpies are scouting potential replacements, ready for his departure.

Newcastle are looking to replace Lewis Hall with Joaquin Seys

Newcastle have had a terrible summer to date and have already lost several key stars.

However, this trend looks unlikely to end anytime soon, with players such as Bruno Guimaraes linked with a move away.

Now, Hall could follow suit, with Sudpresse reporting Newcastle’s interest in Seys.

It makes little sense for the Magpies to be interested in a left-back valued so highly unless they were planning for him to be a regular in the first-team.

Therefore, this surely indicates that Hall is on his way out of the club, with the Magpies clearly searching for his successor.

However, it remains to be seen if the club will facilitate such a sale, with fans clearly disillusioned at present with the lack of transfer activity.

Who are Newcastle looking to sign?

Another player who Newcastle are looking to bring in this summer is Manchester City’s Omar Marmoush.

The attacker struggled for game time at the Etihad last season, and could now be allowed to move on.

The Magpies are strong admirers of Marmoush and are keeping a close eye on his situation, and if they are given any indication he could be available, they are primed to move.

Newcastle are in desperate need of attacking reinforcements, and they will hope that if the Egypt international is brought in, he can solve their current issues.

Nevertheless, it remains to be seen who the Magpies will bring into the club over the coming weeks.
