The 20-year-old has revealed that Newcastle are in talks with his agent about a move.

When asked about Newcastle's interest, Knockaert told FootMercato: "They are in touch with my agent.

"Now, I take care of my own work and nothing else.

"My agent does not put all that in my mind so I can continue to work in the best way.

"I do my job, many young people take it too seriously."

"Yes, sure it's flattering," he continued.

"But I will not give up until one day I am at the highest level. But now I work for the team."
