Newcastle United are planning to once again trump Juventus to signing fresh Portuguese talent.

Having already beaten their Italian rivals for Hugo Viana a year ago, Newcastle are now being linked with long-term Juventus target Deco.

The Porto midfielder has confirmed that he is likely to be leaving his club in the summer and has admitted that he WOULD like to play for Juve.

But Newcastle are not put off by this news. They are reportedly preparing a huge offer for the Brazilian-born, and could once again trump Juve for another of Portugal's young stars.
