Latest rumours indicate that Newcastle are in pole position to land the serial winner, with Bayern Munich willing to see him leave.

According to SportsBild, Muller’s time at the Allianz Arena is set to come to an end, despite the 32-year old still being a key player under Julian Nagelsmann.

With Newcastle showing interest, Bayern are reportedly willing to let the World Cup winner go as early as before the January transfer window closes.

Bayern boss Nagelsmann believes Muller can still play top-tier football for a couple more years, but the club is willing to listen to offers for the striker-turned midfielder.

Since the takeover from Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund, Newcastle have been linked with a number of big names in world football.

In terms of signings, however, the Tyneside club have steered clear of bringing in extreme superstars to the club.

Their first signing was Kieran Trippier from Atletico Madrid, and Eddie Howe’s side also recently secured the signature of Chris Wood from Burnley.

Reports also have it that they are closing in on a deal for Lyon's Bruno Guimaraes.

If Muller somehow completes a move to Newcastle, he will by far be their biggest acquisition in recent times.

The German has spent practically his entire career at Bayern Munich and has established himself as a club legend with the Bavarians.

After breaking into the first team under Louis Van Gaal, Muller went on to win the last nine Bundesliga titles in a row, as well as the Champions League and World Cup in 2014.

With so much success, Muller might be tempted to take on a new challenge and one last huge paycheck.

Dembele’s agent drops transfer hint

Elsewhere, a Spanish Television picked on an interesting phone call on Ousmane Dembele’s agent’s phone amid transfer speculation over the Frenchman’s future.

Dembele’s agent Moussa Sissoko, was pictured receiving a call from Paris Saint-Germain sporting director Leonard at the airport.

Barcelona’s relationship with the 24-year-old seems to have broken down spectacularly, with coach Xavi saying he felt cheated.
