Huddersfield make approach for Murphy

Huddersfield have shown an interest in signing Newcastle winger Jacob Murphy on loan until the end of the season.

According to The Mirror, Huddersfield have made an approach to Newcastle as they look to strike a deal for the forward.

The report claims that Championship side Derby County are also interested, although they are yet to make a formal offer.

Murphy looks set to leave Newcastle on loan this month after having been left in the reserves for the majority of the season so far.

The 23-year-old has only started three Premier League games this season, with a further five appearances in the league off the bench – mustering one assist in that time.

He scored once in 25 Premier League games last season, following his £12m move from Norwich.

Murphy came through the youth ranks at Norwich and had his breakthrough campaign in the 2016/17 season.

In 32 Championship starts he managed to score nine and assist six as he impressed for the Canaries, prompting a move to Newcastle.
