Danny Murphy has insisted Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay would be the 'perfect' signing for Eddie Howe's Newcastle.
It comes after reports that the Magpies are hoping to bring the 26-year-old in this summer as he continues to struggle for game time in a side also featuring the likes of Bruno Fernandes and Casemiro.
The Scotland international has started just seven league games so far this season after being a regular for the previous three years, and Murphy felt a move to St James' Park could be ideal for all invovled.
