Hertha Berlin are among a clutch of German clubs watching Newcastle's teenage winger Shane Ferguson. The 17-year-old came on as a substitute for the Northern Ireland senior side during their 3-0 friendly defeat by Italy on Saturday and was watched by four scouts from the Bundesliga. Ferguson is in his second year at Newcastle and has been offered a three year contract but has caught the eye of top flight clubs. Hertha boss Lucien Favre is keen to bolster his squad ahead of the new season.
