Newcastle are interested in signing the Leicester City midfielder Hamza Choudhury before the transfer window closes.
The 23 year old midfielder has fallen down the pecking order at Leicester and he needs to leave the club in order to play regular first team football.
According to the Telegraph, the transfer seemed quite likely last week but things have been complicated by Leicester’s current injury issues.
Apparently, Bruce is set to speak with the Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers today regarding a transfer for Choudhury and it will be interesting to see how the situation unfolds throughout the day.
