Newcastle United are said to be keeping tabs on Liverpool striker Divock Origi during the winter window.
This comes from Sacha Tavolieri, with the reporter adding that the Belgian international is a ‘top priority’ for Super Lig outfit Fenerbahce.

The 26-year-old’s contract at Anfield is set to expire in the summer window, with European clubs able to arrange a pre-contract agreement for the attacker in the middle of the season.
