Championship side set to pounce on Newcastle midfielder
Championship side Norwich City are hoping to complete a deal for Newcastle United youngster Mackenzie Heaney as part of a youth restructure at St James’ Park.
Chronicle Live report that the club are weighing up a move with the youngster set to leave St James’ Park.
Heaney is highly thought of at Newcastle United but is being let go by the club.
The Premier League side released a host of young players from their Under-23s side last week.
The midfielder spent time at Norwich last week on trial in a bid to impress at the Championship outfit.
The report suggests that several clubs in the Football League are interested in a move for Heaney, so a deal would be considered as something of a coup for Norwich if they can get it over the line.
Heaney has yet to feature for the club’s senior side and made a handful of appearances in the Premier League 2.
