West Brom Keen on Signing Isaac Hayden After Youngster Requests to Leave Newcastle

West Brom are eager to bring Newcastle midfielder Isaac Hayden to the Hawthorns, but Newcastle are seemingly unwilling to offload the youngster.

Hayden has appeared just eight times in the Premier League this term but has started the last three games for Rafa Benitez's side, and the Spaniard is reluctant to let the 23-year-old leave.

Last summer, Hayden handed in a transfer request at St. James' Park in an attempt to carve a path away from the north east. However, Benitez is reluctant to let the young midfielder go without signing a suitable replacement first, as the club continue to rebuff West Brom's advances for Hayden's signature.
