NEWCASTLE IN JUDGE TALKS
23/08/16
Newcastle are in talks over the signing of Brentford's Alan Judge, according to Sky sources.
However, it is understood that any deal may not be finalised until January due to the Republic of Ireland player's ongoing recovery from a double leg-break suffered last season.
Newcastle have been keen to bring the discussions forward due to interest from a number of other clubs but the player will not be fit to play until at least the end of October and is unlikely, therefore, to pass a medical.
