Former Newcastle United goalkeeper Freddie Woodman has discussed how him and Steve Bruce had a stand-off over the phone over his prepared exit from St James' Park.
The now Preston North End shot-stopper made four appearances in the Premier League for the Magpies last season but was originally meant to be joining Bournemouth on their quest for promotion from the Championship.
In the season previous, he'd kept 20 clean sheets for Swansea out on loan on their way to the playoffs but the 26-year-old claims that it was strange going back to his parent club.
