Newcastle eyeing emergency swoop for Manchester United flop
NEWCASTLE are eyeing up a possible move for Manchester United goalkeeper Victor Valdes, according to reports.
Victor Valdes Player Profile
The Magpies are in need of a new stopper after Tim Krul was ruled out for the remainder of the season.
He ruptured knee ligaments in Holland's 2-1 Euro 2016 qualifying win over Kazakhstan on Saturday night.
There were reports last week that Valdes was denied access to his dressing-room locker and that he has been training away from the first-team squad.
Moves to Besiktas and Sevilla in the summer fell through - but Newcastle could offer the former Barcelona ace a way out.
The Magpies currently sit bottom of the Premier League without a top-flight win all season.
