Newcastle United set to miss out on transfer 'target'

Steve Bruce wants to strengthen his attacking options in this month’s transfer window – but Giroud will not be coming to St James’s Park.

The Chelsea striker was linked with a switch to St James’s Park this week.

However, multiple reports claim that the 33-year-old has agreed a two-and-a-half-year deal with Inter.

The Serie A club is in talks with Chelsea over a fee.
