Newcastle are interested in taking Lucas Orban on loan

 

The 26-year-old defender joined the Spanish club in 2014 but has made only 12 appearances in all competitions this term.

The Daily Mail claim Newcastle are in talks and are considering a loan move for the Argentina international.

And the deal could include a clause to make the move permanent if the full-back impresses during his time at St James' Park.

 

Orban began his career with River Plate and has two caps for Argentina, recently representing his country in a 2-0 win over El Salvador in March last year.

The defender would team-up with fellow countryman and club captain Fabricio Coloccini should he complete a move before deadline day on Monday.
