Swedish striker in-demand

Sky Sports understands that North East duo Newcastle United and Sunderland have joined the chase for Manchester City starlet John Guidetti. Although the young striker is set to have options across Europe with clubs from Italy, Spain and Germany all looking to land him. The 20-year-old spent last season on loan in Holland and he scored 20 goals in just 23 games for Feyenoord. Feyenoord would like him back, but Guidetti is looking to join one of Europe's top leagues. Guidetti will return to City for pre-season training, but he is expected to depart the Etihad Stadium this summer. Both Newcastle and Sunderland are ready to compete for Guidetti, but the interest from around Europe is huge. The likes of Inter Milan, Lazio, Fiorentina, Sevilla and Borussia Monchengladbach are just some of the clubs looking at the impressive young Swede.
