Apparently, Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester City are keeping tabs on the defender as well and it will be interesting to see if Real Madrid are prepared to sell him midway through the season.
The Magpies could definitely use a quality left back and Mendy would certainly be a superb addition.
The 27-year-old has won the Spanish league title and the Champions League with Real Madrid and he could prove to be a quality addition to the Newcastle dressing room. Apart from this quality as a player, he will add winning experience to the side.
Newcastle have put together an impressive squad since their takeover and they will be hoping to challenge for the major trophies in the coming seasons.
It Is important for them to have players in the dressing room who have won major trophies and Mendy could have a definitive impact on the club on and off the pitch.
