Newcastle United goalkeeper Tim Krul is attracting interest from Ligue 1 side Montpellier - according to sources in France.

The Dutchman is due back at United’s training ground next week after two loan spells at Ajax and AZ Alkmaar last season.

Krul is entering the final season of his contract, but his future remains up in the air with Newcastle looking for a new senior goalkeeper.

Sources at Montpellier have suggested that Krul is on a list of goalkeepers they are currently taking a look at after a move for Baptiste Reynet of Dijon stalled.

Montpellier owner Louis Nicollin said: “A few days ago we made a new offer that was more or less accepted, but they told us they wanted to find another keeper before they agreed.

“We’ll let the week go by, or we’ll take another player.

“As we are offered two or three goalkeepers a day, we will find one.”

Newcastle have tried to sign Willy Caballero after his release from Manchester City but the Argentinian looks set to join Chelsea.

Pepe Reina was another target but his contract discussions with Napoli are ongoing.

United want three senior goalkeepers to compete for the No 1 spot next season.
