The Evening Chronicle claim Benitez has asked about the
possibility of bringing a number of players way down the pecking order at the
Santiago Bernabeu stadium, as he grows frustrated at the Toon’s lack of
transfer activity.
It
is believed that the Toon are interested in signing Kiko Casilla, after missing
out on Willy Caballero and Pep Reina, with Benitez keen to improve his options
in between the sticks.
Newcastle
have made just one summer signing so far, completing a permanent move to sign
Chelsea winger Christian Atsu after he played an important part in Newcastle’s
promotion-winning campaign.
Benitez,
57, worked at Real Madrid for just six months, joining the Spanish giants in
June 2015 before being axed just half a year later in January 2016 but still
has contacts that he can use to improve the Toon.
This Is
Futbol considers three Real Madrid fringe players or exciting young
talents that could play an important part in helping the Magpies steer clear of
a Premier League relegation dogfight come May 2018.
Here
are those three players, including one who scored five goals for Real last
season:
