Newcastle United move for Liverpool defender

The club is looking to add Liverpool defender Remi Savage to its Under-23 squad.

Savage is out of contract at Anfield this summer – and has reportedly been offered a one-year contract extension.

However, the 19-year-old is set to join Newcastle when his contract expires at the end of the month.

United released a number of Academy players, including Owen Bailey, Ludwig Francillette, Florent Indalecio and Kyle Scott, earlier this month.
