Newcastle are set to launch an audacious attempt to recruit five England stars to their survival bid.

According to the Telegraph, Harry Winks, Ross Barkley, Jesse Lingard, Kieran Trippier and James Tarkowski are all being eyed by Eddie Howe.

With Winks failing to impress new Tottenham coach Antonio Conte, Barkley set for a Chelsea exit and Lingard unlikely to feature in Ralf Rangnick's plans at Manchester United, the midfield trio could all be on the verge of making a Magpies move.

St James' Park's Saudi decision makers have issued Howe a blank cheque as they desperately try to halt the seemingly inevitable slide to the Championship.

The Tyneside club have scored 16 league goals this season but have threadbare midfield options beyond Jonjo Shelvey and Joe Willock.

Trippier and Tarkowski, meanwhile, would add plenty of experience to a leaky backline.

The Magpies have the worst defensive record in the top flight with 30 goals conceded and remain winless after 14 games.

A bolstered rearguard is crucial for any bid to avoid the drop, with Howe's troops already six points from safety.
