Newcastle have history of targeting Tenerife's players, having signed Ayoze Perez two years ago in a £1.8million deal.

And Nano is seen as the next young talent to emerge from the Spanish club.

The Magpies, however, face competition from Real Betis, who have also scouted Nano regularly this season.
