Newcastle 'wish list' claim made as speculation swirls around Allan Saint-Maximin's future

Kevin Campbell says 'it wouldn't be a mistake' if Newcastle 'got rid' of Allan Saint-Maximin this summer. The Magpies winger has been linked with a £50million move away from St. James' Park this week, with Aston Villa among those interested in the 25-year-old.

Saint-Maximin has come under fire on social media for his performances in a black and white shirt of late, but there can be no denying he's shown flashes of real quality since arriving at Newcastle. The Frenchman has struggled with consistency since arriving at St. James' Park and injury problems have played a large part of that.

There can be no denying the Magpies are currently a better team with Saint-Maximin in it, but pressure is beginning to mount on the winger. If the Magpies are able cash in on the former Nice wide man, they may well do that in order to reinvest into the squad.
