Newcastle United close to second major signing with medical booked – Mouth of the Tyne Podcast

On the latest episode of the Mouth of the Tyne Podcast, our writers Dominic Scurr, Miles Starforth and Joe Buck reflect on the second week of the transfer window and the latest developments at Newcastle United.

But there has been significant developments in the goalkeeper department with one departure and one potential incoming. Freddie Woodman has departed for Preston North End while Burnley goalkeeper Nick Pope looks set to be the next arrival on Tyneside.
