Newcastle United want to sign Championship defender, shock new favourite for Arsenal job, and more

Newcastle United have already been linked with a Championship star in Jarrod Bowen, and have again been linked with an EFL prospect today.

The Daily Mirror report that Nottingham Forest centre-back Joe Worrall is of interest to Steve Bruce and his team, and Newcastle have reportedly scouted the defender extensively this season.

Worrall has been a regular for Forest, and Newcastle will apparently face competition from Everton for his signature.

The 22-year-old defender hails from Nottinghamshire, and previously thrived during a loan spell at Rangers.
