da betobet: According to The Mirror, Newcastle United are interested in bringing Everton defender Leighton Baines to St James’ Park in this summer’s transfer window.
da bet7k: Baines has been widely tipped to leave Goodison Park ahead of the 2018-19 campaign, with a number of MLS clubs believed to be interested.
Speculation surrounding Baines’ future has gathered pace with the news that the Toffees are nearing a deal for Barcelona defender Lucas Digne.
According to The Mirror, Newcastle boss Rafael Benitez is interested in signing Baines on a short-term deal in this summer’s transfer window.

Baines made 29 appearances for Everton last season despite the presence of a calf problem, and there is no question that he has been one of the best left-backs in the Premier League over the last 10 years or so.
However, the Newcastle supporters are simply not interested in a deal for the 33-year-old this summer.
