It is being claimed in Spain the Argentine winger would like to link up with fellow countrymen Jonas Gutierrez and Fabricio Coloccini.

Perotti has been linked with a host of clubs in England, and reports suggest that a decision has been made that will see the 22-year-old depart.

Sevilla are ready to ask €16million for their midfield creator, who looks to have a plethora of options available to him in the Premier League.

But it is Newcastle who have been strongly linked with Perotti in recent weeks, and one report suggests he wants to join a club where he knows he will settle and Gutierrez and Coloccini could play a major part.
