Newcastle defender Grant Hanley appears to be interesting Sheffield Wednesday ahead of the summer transfer window.
According to an exclusive report from The Star, which focuses in on news based on the Owls, Carlos Carvalhal is plotting a swoop for the Scotland international as he looks to bolster his defensive options ahead of next season.
Hanley is somewhat out of favour at St James’ Park, with both Jamaal Lascelles and Ciaran Clark ahead of him in the pecking order. Reports have recently suggested that Rafa Benitez is keen to sign more defenders ahead of Newcastle’s return to the Premier League and this could very well spell the end of Hanley’s time at the club.
It’s stated in the report that Hanley is on a considerably high £45,000 per week deal with the Magpies. Sheffield Wednesday may be reluctant to pay that kind of money, and could be forced to pay over the odds given that the Scotsman still has four more years remaining on his deal.
