Newcastle United are targeting Dutch star Rafael Van Der Vaart, following the Netherlands superb 4-1 victory over France in their Euro 2008 clash on Friday night.

Van Der Vaart currently plays for Bundesliga side Hamburg and has been tipped for a move to the Premier League after the European tournament.

Numerous English clubs have revealed an interest in the player but the Magpies are believed to be leading in the hunt for his services.

But Newcastle may find the competition for his signature too fierce, as the likes of Chelsea, Manchester United, Arsenal and Liverpool have also shown an interest.

New Hamburg manager Martin Jol said about the 25-year-old: "We have to do all we can to keep hold of him. He is one of the best five play-makers in Europe and he dictates the rhythm of Hamburg."
