Newcastle United, a Premier League club, are interested in Union Saint-Gilloise's Anan Khalaili. The club's scouts are reportedly very impressed with the 21-year-old right wing-back, and head of recruitment Steve Nickson is also said to be a fan of the player. The Israeli international has 11 caps and one goal for his country. He joined the Belgian side from Maccabi Haifa for €6.5 million and has become a crucial player, having scored three times in the Champions League league phase.
In the current Jupiler Pro League season, he has made 24 appearances, scoring two goals and providing one assist. Newcastle's interest could lead to a summer bid, as the club is considering adding another wide player. They are scouting in Belgium, the Netherlands, France, and Italy, and Khalaili is reportedly an important candidate. His contract with the Belgian club runs until June 2028. His current market value is €12 million, according to an estimate by Transfermarkt.
