Newcastle United will have plenty of business going on at the club this summer as Rafael Benitez looks to rejuvenate his squad, building upon what has been a successful first season back in the Premier League.

The Magpies currently sit comfortably in mid-table with three matches to go and have enjoyed a remarkable upturn in form since January, rising from a spot inside the relegation zone to their current position.

However, Benitez has seen his side struggle for consistency in front of goal and widespread changes are expected, with the Magpies looking to cash-in on in-form striker Aleksandar Mitrovic, who has impressed on-loan with Fulham.

The SunĀ now state that the Cottagers, vying for promotion to the Premier League, want to sign the Serbia international on a permanent basis this summer but are also looking to bring in another Newcastle attacker.

Dwight Gayle is also on the shortlist for Fulham and Newcastle could be tempted into a sale for the right price, following a return of just five goals this season for the forward.
