Newcastle United linked with David James swoop
Newcastle United Football Club have been linked with a move for David James.
With Shay Given expected to quit St James Park for Manchester City this month, the Magpies would be eager to find a top-notch replacement before deadline day.
The Daily Star Sunday claim Joe Kinnear could well move for Portsmouth’s number one James, who remains one of the best shot-stoppers in the top-flight despite his 38 years.
However, the England international is in no hurry to quit Fratton Park: he is settled in the area and is Fabio Capello’s number once choice, so a move to the troubled Magpies is unlikely.
