Egyptian striker Mido is targeted by Newcastle United and RSC Anderlecht, according to media reports.

The 27-year-old became a free agent after parting ways with Ajax Amsterdam by mutual consent on Tuesday due to lack of first-team opportunities.

La Liga duo Deportivo Lacuruna and Espanyol were the first to show interest in Mido, before the towering player revealed Zamalek's intention of re-signing him.

It was reported later that Premiership outfit Newcastle and Belgian side Anderlecht are also among his suitors.

Among other sides, the nomadic Mido plied his trade at Gent, Marseille, AS Roma, Tottenham Hotspur and Middlesbrough.
