Muto has made just one start this season, and just eight in all competitions since joining from Mainz in 2018.

According to Telegraph Sport, the 27-year-old has already made his feelings known to manager Steve Bruce.

Capable of playing out wide or behind the striker, Muto is already behind Allan Saint-Maximin, Miguel Almirón, Joelinton and Dwight Gayle in the pecking order.

A move back to the Bundesliga has been touted with Mainz, Augsburg and Union Berlin all said to be interested.

Newcastle will be hoping to recoup at least €5m of their initial €8m outlay.
