and on Freeview 262 or Freely 565
Woodman is impressing this season on loan at Swansea City. The 23-year-old – who has made a handful of first-team appearances for United – is focused on the Championship club’s promotion push, but he still hopes to succeed on Tyneside.
"One day I want to be (Newcastle’s No.1),” Woodman told The Athletic. “That’s why I’ve signed long-term at Newcastle.

Woodman is under contract at Newcastle until 2023. Martin Dubravka and Karl Darlow are ahead of him in the pecking order at St James’s Park. The club also signed free agent Mark Gillespie last summer.
