Newcastle United keeper a target for Leeds United

Championship side Leeds United are interested in signing Newcastle United goalkeeper Karl Darlow, according to HITC.

Leeds are desperate for a new shot-stopper this summer with their current options having been less than impressive between the posts last season.

Newcastle look set to sell Darlow in the summer with Leeds keen on taking him to Elland Road.

Newcastle boss Rafael Benitez has several sturdy goalkeeping options in his squad which has seen Darlow fall down the ranks at St James’ Park.

Darlow is a proven ‘keeper at Championship level and would likely by first choice in goal if Leeds were to complete a deal for him.

Newcastle were close to selling Darlow last summer but their lack of activity in the transfer window left them keeping hold of the -27-year-old.

Swansea are also said to be interested in Darlow who it is believed would cost in the region of £2million.
