According to the Daily Express, Liverpool and Chelsea look to have received a boost in their pursuit of Newcastle playmaker Bruno Guimaraes.
The Brazil international has been linked with a move away from Newcastle during the January transfer window, with the club reportedly already exploring for potential replacements.
Guimaraes scored his second and third goals of the season in a thrilling 3-2 victory over Nottingham Forest last Saturday.
He is reported to be available this summer for roughly £100 million, close to what Chelsea paid to bring Moises Caicedo (£115 million) and Enzo Fernandez (£107 million) to the club.
