10 Players Newcastle Have Been Linked To At The Euro U-21 Championships
4. Andreas Christensen (Denmark)
Age: 19 Position: Defender Club: Chelsea Nationality: Danish Estimated market value: £4 million (Likely to be available on loan) League Appearances (Goals) 2014-15: 1 (0) International Under-21 Caps (Goals): 15 (1) Again not a name that has been touted around too much in this transfer window, but Christensen has been linked to the Magpies in the past - and he could be available on loan next season. The 19-year-old defender is rated highly by Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho and has been included in the first-team squad on a number of occasions, making one Premier League appearance to date. A 6ft 2in defender, Christensen can play centre-back or full-back and would offer versatility to the Newcastle back four - although he would likely need an experienced head in alongside him. Capped twice at full-international level by Denmark, Christensen has also made 15 appearances for the Under-21 side.
