It is no secret that Newcastle United manager Rafa Benitez wants to add a top quality goalkeeper to his squad to battle for a first-team place with Rob Elliot.
Elliot has been superb so far this season but should he get injured then it leaves Benitez with a problem as he has the inexperienced shot-stopper Freddie Woodman as back-up.
