Republic of Ireland Under-21 international Daryl Horgan says he would consider a move to Newcastle United if the chance came his way.

The 24-year-old has been linked with the Magpies after shining brightly during Dundalk’s Europa League adventure with the League of Ireland side still in with a shout of advancing from the group stages.

Horgan has scored 10 goals already this season and has attracted interest from watching scouts with Dundalk capturing the imagination of neutral fans this season.

When asked about the speculation Horgan said: “I don’t know, really.

“To be honest with you, I try to stay out of it as much as I possibly can.

“Look, it’s very easy to say you’re interested; it’s very different to put at offer on the table and at the minute, there are no offers on the table.

“I’m a Dundalk player, I’m very happy at Dundalk but as I said, if an offer does come in from somewhere, I’d have to consider it, especially something like a massive club like Newcastle.”
