Newcastle United and Crystal Palace both reportedly identify West Ham United goalkeeper Adrian as a possible transfer target ahead of next season.

West Ham United goalkeeper Adrian has reportedly emerged as a transfer target for both Newcastle United and Crystal Palace.

The Hammers recently activated a clause to extend the 30-year-old's contract by another two years, but he faces the prospect of being frozen out at the London Stadium during the upcoming campaign.

Joe Hart has joined from Manchester City, leaving both Adrian and Darren Randolph as backup to the England international, but according to The Mirror, the Spaniard will look to join a new club.

It has been suggested that a desire to fight for a place in his nation's World Cup squad is behind the decision and having spoken with boss Slaven Bilic, it appears that he will leave before the end of August.

Newcastle boss Rafael Benitez is keen to add top-flight experience to his squad ahead of their return to the Premier League, while Palace manager Frank de Boer needs to replace Steve Mandanda.

Since moving to West Ham in 2013, Adrian has made 123 appearances in all competitions.
